1) Are you just putting ONE restaurant in each category?

2) Do you find that the hotels have any issues with just one listing per type? I have talked to many of the lodging places here and several want to be able to offer more choices to their guests. (But they aren't providing this or paying anything for it so tough right?)

3) I was thinking of putting three per category to offer variety and allow the restaurants to compete with each other for placement, but I dont want to over complicate it.

Welcome any feedback you have. Thanks.

Hey Woof.....thanks for your interest in this;

1) MY "J.O.B." in doing this is what?.....TO MAKE MONEY FOR ME, MYSELF AND I.....IN THE SHORTEST TIME and EASIEST way possible!

YUP.....so....when I visit a THAI restaurant .....find the owner and whip out my Mobile and....SHOW HIM/HER what MY Mobile Directory looks like....IN MY HAND (no question as to IF it will be done....IT'S ALREADY DONE!.....THEY CAN SEE IT IN MY FORMALLY NICOTENE STAINED HAND!

And....when I show 2 or 3 examples of EXCLUSIVES in other Food Categories (American - BBQ)......they UNDERSTAND the POWER of EXCLUSIVENESS.....AND HOW IT CAN....(pay close attention to the following words)......BRING THEM MORE DINERS AND PROFITS!!!!!!!!!

2) I usually do NOT....SHOW the Hotel "Mgr or Owner" what my Directory looks like!!!!! I've found (from EXPERIENCE) that....the MORE I show "Hotel Mgmt".....the MORE.....THEY want to CHANGE IT! ....or PREVENT IT! When I tell the Hotel Mgment my Directory will...Provide MORE "Service & Convenience to their Guests".....they usually don't even bother to "Take a Look"!

3) Sure.....it "appears" to you that; "Hey Don! I can get 3 restaurants paying me every month instead of ONE!" However.....from MY experience;
I can get QUICKER OKs for MY Fees by "Appealing to ONE of each Cuisine".... their GREED GLANDS" get active, by showing THEY can be the ONLY Thai Restaurant in the program!

So.....my advise is to.....make up a Sample Site (modeled after my www.mobisiteindex.com/princeton site)(with 2 or 3 local Demo Restaurants) and .....go visit some hotels.....telling them that YOU have a way to .....PROVIDE MORE SERVICE TO THEIR GUESTS.....because they have been traveling and are HUNGRY, and would like to know WHERE TO EAT!

AND.....DO NOT ASK THEM TO SIGN A CONTRACT OF ANY KIND!

Holy Camoly.....one of my "students" who lived in one of the greatest TOURIST towns (Niagara Falls, CANADA) paid a Lawyer to create a CONTRACT explaining what HE would provide and what the Hotel would provide!

He did as I told him.....initially.....which was to Show the Site I had created for his area (3 "Demo" Restaurants out of 25 different Cuisines) AND.....got their initial HANDSHAKE Permission. Then.....without consulting me....had a lawyer make up a "CONTRACT"! Which he asked each Hotel Mgr to SIGN!

OMG! Result was; ZIPPO PARTICIPATION

Look.....with ALL the Hotel programs I've done in the past 30 yrs....I have NEVER asked any Hotel/Motel to SIGN.....ANYTHING! I have made a BUNDLE with my Hotel/Motel projects.....with a simple VERBAL OKAY!

Golly geebees! It still bothers me, just thinking about the BONANZA this guy COULD have had .....if he wasn't SO concerned about "Crossing the T and Dotting the I's"

So.....Woof.....hope I've given you some info to go forward.

Don Alm
