Esterillos Oeste, April 12,2023

It is with great pleasure that I send you this letter to thank you for the work you do in marketing and training you provide our Hotel Costa Pacífica. Thanks to your support, we entered the incoming agencies segment, successfully receiving international tourists and the online agency segment is evolving favorably with the management and proposed revenue plans. Staff training has helped us in the stage we initiated after our remodeling and expansion in 2020, where we carried out a general remodeling of common areas and resort amenities and pet-friendly, modern rooms with thoughtful interior design, an expanded gastronomic high quality offering; to further standardize our approach and provide excellent service to all of our customers. The first time that Consuhotel provided us with services was in 2015 and since then, communication has been fluid, effective and always cordial. The Consuhotel team is truly a valuable ally for us.

Sincerely
Ivan Zuniga G

During the second semester of the year 2018 our company was favored with a consultancy on behalf of the company Consuhotel, S.A. to diagnose and promote a new Marketing and Sales Plan for the year 2019. We were fortunate to work with different representatives of the Consuhotel company, who demonstrated their high level of professionalism and commitment. Especially its leader and director Mrs. Susana Guevara.

What makes Consuhotel unique is that it offers a combination of traditional hotel knowledge and the way this knowledge is interpreted, concretized, applied and used in the daily operation of the hotel. This strategy turns out to be very effective and offers very fast results.

We are about to close the first quarter of the year 2019 under the new Marketing and Sales Plan 2019 proposed by Consuhotel. We have managed to amass great knowledge and practice in the areas of Revenue, Effective Communication in Sales, Organization of the Commercial Team, Negotiation Strategies and Loyalty Accounts. In addition, we have achieved 100% goals and segmentation in what we have of the year.
