Conclusions
• Awareness is low due to the location of the inn. Also, the weathered signs located on Route 202 and 119 are not visible to the common traveler.
• Majority of the business was facilitated by word of mouth and the internet. Newspaper Ads were the least effective method of advertising.
• Service, Dining, and Accommodations were sufficient. However, Professionalism should be improved.
• Dining and Outdoor activities attracted the most customers.
![Page 22: Prepared by: Keith Brouillard Colleen Burke Rob Cawein Elise Porter Kate Vincent](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062322/56649e9e5503460f94b9f86d/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Recommendations• The Woodbound Inn should have more research conducted and further
investigate its market.
• More advertisements in the area of fliers or brochures. Coupons that offer a promotional deal to the consumer often increase sales and public awareness.
• More accommodations and services should be provided by the Inn in order to fully accommodate any high maintenance customer or groups.
• Professionalism should be increased in order to create a more satisfies customer.
• The Inn’s sign located on Route 119 on 202 should be more visible to the common traveler.
