A Little PR for B&Bs
Written by Jay Karen on March 13, 2008 – 7:31 pmIn an interview with Matt Lauer this morning, Peter Greenberg gave tips and advice on how to travel on a budget during a distressing time in our economy. Dare I use the “R” word?
You can view the interview by clicking here.
B&Bs are mentioned as an economical possibility for Sunday through Thursday lodging needs.
I’m not necessarily the biggest fan of our industry being presented as an economical alternative, but the fact is most innkeepers do have lower rates during weekdays as part of a yield management strategy. And dollar for dollar, you bet a B&B is a better choice than the big-box guys! If this spurs any business at all for even one innkeeper, fantastic!
My friends at the B&B Team have also blogged about this.
Peter Greenberg’s office contacted PAII a few weeks ago, asking for information on staying at B&Bs for a piece they are planning for their website. I will spread the word once (if) something gets posted online.
