Hotels and Motels

Hospitality Management

Running a hospitality business comes with its own unique set of challenges. Whether you are managing a hotel, motel, or inn, no other industry has customers who have such high expectations for customer service. Your employees all have to be spot on when it comes to dealing with your customers and anticipating their needs and wants. Every aspect of your profession involves making people happy and comfortable. The slow economy has caused a lag in pleasure and business traveling. Those who do travel and stay in your establishment have high expectations for their stay and want to get more than their money's worth. But the lag has decreased profits and so your hotel might be in some need of a financial boost. There are better options for getting working capital that can help your establishment attract more customers than the traditional means of obtaining financing.

Get the Word Out, Bring Profits In

Fewer customers equals fewer profits and so your establishment may have fallen into some minor disrepair, it might need a makeover to create a more contemporary style, or perhaps there are some touches here and there that could make it more comfortable. Such improvements not only make a customer's stay more enjoyable, thus increasing the chance of repeat visits and recommendations, they prevent worse problems from creeping up in the future. There are also things your establishment can do to drum up extra revenue: offering services that local residents would provide patronage for such as restaurants, lounges, reception centers, or a local special rate for couples looking to get away for a night without leaving town. These services will need to be advertised in the local community, along with the usual national marketing and travel website listings. In short, if you want to improve your hospitality business and generate more revenue, you will need to spend some cash up front. For most business owners this will require obtaining some sort of financing. You've probably already dealt with a traditional small business loan and aren't to excited to repeat the experience. A great option for your particular business is a Merchant Cash Advance.

Better Than a Loan

There are numerous advantages to a Merchant Cash Advance. Nearly every disadvantage to a loan generates a positive reflection with an advance. In this economy you will certainly need to provide collateral to a bank, often in the form of personal assets, but not with an advance. You may need to have a personal credit score of at least 700 to even be considered for a loan, but a low credit score isn't a disqualifier for a cash advance. You may be waiting for months to see the cash from a loan, if you actually are approved inspite of the tightened lending restrictions banks have imposed. You can have your Merchant Cash Advance in as little as a few days. A loan haunts you for years as you pay a set minimum balance towards your loan each month before a certain day to avoid late fees. With a Merchant Cash Advance a small percentage of credit and debit card transactions is collected automatically. No more mailing checks each month in hopes they arrive in time. And because the amount collected is a percentage of electronic transactions, what you pay is directly linked to how well the hotel is doing. You know how much business can fluctuate month to month, even day to day. When things are slow, you pay less. When business picks back up, you pay back the advance faster. Many merchants pay off their advance in less than a year. You can see just how ideal a Merchant Cash Advance is for your hotel.
