Las Vegas Luxury Hotels Failing at Social Media

November 3rd, 2010

Phoenix, AZ ( QualityPressReleaser ) October 29, 2010 – Social media takes sales and marketing to a whole new level. One that has proven to be more authentic, believable and helpful to consumers than traditional and expensive advertising. It appears that some on the Las Vegas luxury hotel circuit are clearly not taking advantage of this new tool, much to the detriment of the hotel and the guest.

Quickly becoming a cornerstone in word-of-mouth marketing, social media is a unique platform that combines the speed of the internet with the traditional word-of-mouth sharing, allowing people to relay information with one another in a quick, concise – sometimes 140 characters to be exact – manner.

Savvy consumers now depend on and expect companies to be part of this word-of-mouth marketing panacea. It benefits everyone. There’s little of no cost to the business, and consumers get a first hand referral of what they are buying.

Internet entrepreneur and founder of the “Social Media Adventure,” ( ) Joseph Ranseth recently witnessed first-hand social media opportunities in several major luxury hotels on the Las Vegas strip, An area of the country that is extremely competitive when it comes to hotels. he was shocked and disappointed that the famed Bellagio was not engaged in this mutually beneficial form of marketing.

To plan a recent trip to Las Vegas to attend a marketing conference, Ranseth asked his social network of nearly 15,000 people: “What’s your favorite hotel in Las Vegas?”

Dozens of people responded, including friends from Facebook, Twitter followers and even a travel agency that specialized in Las Vegas Luxury Hotels.

They responded overwhelmingly: the Bellagio.

A double bed for a single guest and a room transfer that did not follow through to accommodate Ranseth’s conference schedule, Ranseth shared his disappointment with a lack of customer service through twitter. All unnoticed by the hotel that his social network had suggested.

Ironic that social media was what made Ranseth choose the Bellagio over many other fine luxury hotels yet the Bellagio was dismissive (or ignorant) of social media and its advantages. The Bellagio, with 1,380 Twitter followers, led in word-of-mouth recommendation, but missed a chance to reach one guest and his 15,000-person audience. An opportunity that is sure to be sorely missed.

The development of a company’s social network has proven to be successful with lead Twitter personalities such as Lady Gaga reaching an audience of almost 7 million and the fashion label Lacoste proudly announcing the achievement of 2 million Facebook “likes” last week.

Social networking continues to grow and find success and when it comes to comparing social media savvy, Las Vegas Luxury Hotels could find increasing their prowess beneficial to their representation in the social media universe.

“When businesses start to listen, they’ll find more people talking about them… in a good way,” said Ranseth, recently named one of 16 People Inspiring The World Through Twitter. Even more ironic is the fact that while at another hotel, Ranseth was identified by Mike Koenigs, a keynote speaker, as one of the top three influences at the high profile marketing conference.

Actionable Job Search Advice Helping Americans Regain Employment

August 20th, 2010

Since the Great Recession began, over eight million Americans have lost their jobs. The job search process also changed due to an extremely fierce market; a market where there are about six job applicants for every position. However, the executive job search advice in the marketplace has not changed for the most part. The same cookie-cutter and generic advice of the pre-recession days still exists. Several job seekers still do not know how to conduct an effective search due to a lack of experience (conducting a search every four years or so). As a result, the average length of unemployment and unemployment insurance have increased substantially.

From my experience interacting with job seekers in person and online, several of them are predominantly applying blindly to advertised positions. As time goes by, many of them are not generating results and subsequently becoming discouraged. Several job seekers have lost their homes, vehicles, significant others, and so on due to their job loss. As an individual who was laid off in January 2009 but had the financial resources several other job seekers lacked; I decided to take action to help as many job seekers possible by creating JobRadioUSA and The Career Factory talk shows in mid 2009.

Both resources are free and provide the how-to or specifics for the job search. All job search topics are covered from lead generation to offer negotiation. This advice is from the job search trenches or has been tested in the marketplace. Thus, these resources have helped several job seekers land new positions in perhaps the toughest economy since the Great Depression.

Over a year later, the job market has not improved much. Several job seekers are still predominantly relying on advertised jobs. Many other job seekers have became discouraged and given up completely. However, most of these individuals have not been fortunate enough to learn about JobRadioUSA and its weekly career shows. Likewise, we owe it to ourselves to get the word out about these free great resources to as many job seekers possible. Whether utilizing traditional and social media and other sources; it is vital that we help all job seekers during these difficult times.

Our weekly Tuesday night online talk radio career shows on BlogTalkRadio feature a top notch career expert. These featured guests are CEOs of the top executive recruiting firms, bestselling authors, executives of outplacement firms, and so on. They share the specifics for generating job leads, converting leads to interviews, transforming interviews to job offers, and becoming resilient and valuable in the workplace. During the second half of these hour shows, job seekers can ask questions and connect with the experts subsequently. If individuals could not attend the live shows, they can download the archives anytime afterwards.

In conclusion, feel free to view these free resources and assess their value. Next inform as many job seekers about these resources and encourage them to pay it forward by doing the same. If you would like to learn more about this philanthropic initiative, feel free to contact me.

Kids’ Love of Books Critical to Reading, Self-Esteem

June 11th, 2010

BOISE, IDAHO—6 May 2010
An Idaho company is publishing innovative personalized books to combat the bombardment of TV shows, toys, and video games that entertain children without educating. Spotlight Stories engage young children with intelligent, enjoyable, personalized storybooks that feature themselves in enchanting and exciting storylines.

SpotlightStories.com supports parents’ literacy efforts by creating personalized stories that put children’s images and names into books. Their first offerings, The Princess and the Fairy Wings, and Superhero Stomping Power! put the child’s name, appearance, family members, and friends into the story. Spotlight Stories’ founder and author, Monelle Smith, said, “Magic happens when children read about themselves in the story. They love being part of the fantasy.” Parents seem to agree. Chandelle Volo, mother of three from Pleasant Hill, California, said, “I couldn’t believe how my daughter’s face lit up when I read her Spotlight Story aloud, and she was the princess. She smiled up at me every time I read her name.”
A 2009 study done by Every Child a Chance Trust said, “The largest group of children requiring special educational needs (SEN) provision are those with literacy difficulties.”
Educators and writers face an uphill battle to increase literacy levels. Neysa Jensen, the Utah/Southern Idaho Assistant Regional Advisor for the Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators, said, “We value reading in our community, and yet too many of our children are not developing vital literacy skills. It’s up to everyone in a child’s life to support reading. We’re shaping tomorrow’s leaders.”
Spotlight Stories creates personalized picture books for children ages 2-10. Their first stories, The Princess and the Fairy Wings and Superhero Stomping Power, are now available at SpotlightStories.com.

To preview The Princess and the Fairy Wings or Superhero Stomping Power, visit SpotlightStories.com. For more information, contact Monelle Smith at 208-895-9717 or [email protected]
