  • Advertising Strategy
    - Consider carefully your advertising strategy, especially in one shot printed publications like B&B guides, B&B recipe books, police associations, annual crime prevention publications, your local theater group's program, etc. In seven years I have tried it all. The best guides do not charge a listing fee; e.g., Lonely Planet, Canadian Automobile Association, etc. They inspect instead. These costs tend to become formidable.

  • Candy Rose
    - To give our guests a 'little' something special at breakfast each morning of their stay, we lay a handmade candy rose sucker on its own special plate at their place setting. Each candy rose is coordinated with the color of plates we're using that day. Each candy rose is in a clear bag tied with pink ribbon - just right for taking home and showing to their friends, or eating at the airport while thinking of what a wonderful time they had with us! And ... every time they see a rose, maybe they'll think of us ... it could happen!

  • Check-Out Gift
    - We like to show guests how much we appreciate them staying at our Inn by giving them a little gift at check-out time. We want them to remember us! Our gift is a small bag filled with 'goodies' and tied with pink and yellow ribbon. The following poem and 'goodies' are inside the bag:
      From Ambrosia Rose Inn
    • A chocolate Kiss to remind you that you are loved!
    • A match to light your fire when you feel burned out!
    • A Tootsie Roll to remind you not to bite off more than you can chew!
    • Smarties to help you on those days you don't feel so smart!
    • A Starburst to give you a burst of energy on days you don't have any!
    • Snickers to remind you to take time to laugh!
    • A bag to help you keep it all together & to give you food for thought!
    • AND MOST IMPORTANTLY........ A candle to remind you that you can brighten someone else's day!!!
    Guests always go away with a smile! They talk about us to their friends and show their 'goodie' bag ... but, most importantly ... they come back!

  • How Did They Find You?
    - You may have your travel business advertised in a number of publications at any one time. If you do, it is important that you can monitor just how successful each advert is so that you can use the best publications in the future. You can do this by including in your address 'Dept. E' (for an ad in the Evening News), or 'Dept. T' (for an ad in the Travel Gazette). Alternatively, if your business normally has an individual as a contact you could have 'Please contact E. Smith' (for an ad in the Evening News . . . etc.)

  • Inexpensive Website
    - We wanted to give those folks inquiring about our Inn an 'inside and outside' look at the Inn without it costing us an 'arm and a leg' so to speak! So, we set up an Ambrosia Rose Inn family site at MyFamily.com. Now anyone who inquires about the Inn gets to join our Inn's 'family' site. They receive notification of their invitation, a temporary user ID, and their own password. We can put a zillion pictures on the family site - plus recipes, Inn news, and an Inn events calendar! Our new Inn family members can add their friends to the site also and make comments. It's a great promotion tool. And ... it's working terrific ... our Inn family is growing like our business!
