SUMMARY:Managing Seasonality in Tourism & Hospitality - Merimbula
DESCRIPTION:Seasonal demand. It’s one of the greatest challenges for any business\, particularly for tourism and hospitality operators. Both feasts and famines have their issues. Either your business can’t keep up with demand\, or there’s not enough work to pay the bills and keep your staff employed. \nAlmost every business experiences seasonal fluctuation in sales and cash flow. Some fluctuations are predictable\, certain holidays\, popular holiday periods or weather seasons. But others\, like a crisis that suddenly cuts sales\, are unpredictable. The key is knowing how to manage these seasonal cycles and implement practices to reduce the impact. \nThe Centre of Excellence is conducting a series of workshops that will focus on key factors to assist your business to better prepare for the peaks and troughs. These include: \n\nMarketing strategies\nOnline presence\nBrand and collateral\nSocial media campaigns\nManaging employees\nStorytelling\nDiversification\, off peak and mid-week\nCollaboration and networking\n\nPresenters \n \nThe workshops will be presented by local visitor economy specialists Catherine Shields and Kate Mather\, both are well-known across the region and have extensive industry experience. \nThe workshop content will provide practical advice and strategies that you will be able to apply directly to your own business. \nRegistration begins at 8:30am. Morning tea and a light lunch will be served. \nCLICK TO REGISTER \nFor more information\, download the workshop flyer.
