I was responsible for finding new corporate accounts, increasing production of existing accounts, managing rates and amenities and negotiating corporate rates for the hotel. I opened the hotel in 2008 so I had to start from scratch and was the #1 business travel hotel in downtown Detroit. We had to shift share from the competition in some of the worst years for the Detroit market. For this I won the award for Business Travel Sales Manager of the year for Starwood Hotels.
