Bed and Breakfast Consulting
Current Innkeepers have purchased and developed their Inn, marketed it to travelers, and created a hospitality niche like no other. Now might be the time to review where you are with your business and understand its full potential so you can determine when it is time to sell. To accomplish this, a Marketing Assessment and Valuation (MA&V) is our service that helps you with these answers. We examine your inn’s location, condition, and financials for its strengths and weaknesses and assess its market value using our analytical process that helps arrive at a “reasonable and successful price. This process can be used early to assist the Innkeeper with growth and improvement strategy or to begin the Selling process and get you to your next passion in life!
As a seasoned Innkeeper and professional consultant, we can also guide you to the correct resources in our industry to get you to where you want to be in this business. At any time, please schedule a free consultation to review your needs and how they are best solved.
