THE BEST JOB YOU NEVER HEARD OF...WHY?
So, here’s the story on the name of this site and my training course…after I became a hotel sales manager and people would ask me what I did a living, when I told them, they would always say, “I never heard of that job!” After I explained exactly what the job entailed, they would almost always ask, “How can I get that job?”
I always got a huge kick out of that.

YOU GOTTA GO FOR IT!
Why not you? Why shouldn’t you have an exciting career you can be proud of, making the money you need to do the things you dream of doing. If I had it my way, everyone would have that opportunity. That’s why I created this website. When I got my first hotel job, I was the single mother of four sons, no money, no car, living with my parents and the only job I could get was as a $5 an hour secretary for a copier saleswoman who was an absolute tyrant.

It’s 8:30 am and you arrive just in time to sit down to the daily sales meeting with the Director of Sales, the Associate Director of Sales and the Sales Managers on your team.

WHAT DOES IT TAKE?
You’re probably wondering what it takes to be a Hotel Sales Manager. Not as much as you might think. First of all, you don’t need a fancy degree or any degree at all. I’ve been working in and with hotels for over 20 years and I have met only two people who had four-year degrees in Hospitality Management. Neither one seemed to enjoy any advantages from it. your way up is the way it works in Hotel Sales. Perhaps the hotel companies would rather train employees in their special brand, their philosophy, culture–and they do.

"MY" HOTELS
I have worked at some truly fabulous hotels in my career and I share them here with you to give you an example of what your career might look like. I worked in progressively high end hotels until after September 11, 2001. At that point, I didn't want to travel as much, so I took positions in limited service hotels which has focus on local group business than national and international. I enjoyed all of the properties I've represented in my 20-year hotel sales career.
