Planner Tip - November 2010
Hospitality: The relationship between guest and host, or the act or practice of being hospitable. Specifically, this includes the reception and entertainment of guests, visitors, or strangers, resorts, membership clubs, conventions, attractions, special events, and other services for travelers and tourists.
Another, more simple definition is the business of providing catering, lodging and entertainment service; the act or service of welcoming, receiving, hosting, and/or entertaining guests.
Well folks, what a better time of year than now to show Hospitality. We are in the hospitality industry and what a wonderful industry it is. Do you ever think about what we do for a living?...we help make life fun and enjoyable, at least for one day and help produce happy and joyful memories for years to come…HOW COOL IS THAT?!!
This is our job, this is our charge, this is our duty…so let’s do the absolute best we can. Let’s ROCK the WORLD of our clients and make them and their guests, our guests HAPPY…GIDDY even!!!...at least for that one night we are part of their lives.
With that said, isn’t this the time of year to be hospitable?...to reach out to family, friends, clients, and strangers…
I’ve said this before, but what an absolutely beautiful time of year this is. This is a time to be truly thankful for all the blessings we have…family, friends, our country. And, of course, our industry? Again, how awesome is it to be in an industry that provides fun, enjoyment, and beauty to people all over the world? I thank God every day for the job I have, for the industry I’m a part of, for all of you. I hope you all do too.
Let’s also thank God for our country and the men and women who serve it…those putting their lives on the line to keep us free, to keep us safe. They deserve our prayers, our respect, our support, especially at this time of year.
And, nothing’s more important than our families and our friends. How special are they? Treasure the time you have with them…life is short, don’t miss the chance to tell them you love them and how much they mean to you.
And lastly, from all of us at Party Pals… thank you all so much for your business and your friendship…we truly appreciate you. It’s been a tough couple of years for a lot of people and we certainly haven’t been immune to the current economy. You all have helped us through and we hope we have helped you also. It’s obviously because of you we continue to exist…again, THANKS…you all ROCK!
Have an absolutely beautiful Thanksgiving and Christmas Season.
