In our fifth episode, we chat with Mark Ellwood, Contributing Editor for Condé Nast Traveler, Editor at Large for Robb Report and co-host of Bloomberg’s “Travel Genius” podcast. Mark is a regular guest on NBC’s TODAY Show and the author of the book, “Bargain Fever.”
Tune in to hear Mark share his thoughts on:
1) Why flexibility is key, both for the hospitality & travel industry and for him, during COVID-19
2) How this industry plays such a vital role in the economy
3) How hotel F&B goes beyond hotel guests by creating ties with the all-important local community
4) Why people should take a vacation, even now, and in the future
5) What are the Do’s and Don’ts for pitching stories to him
6) Why social media is an excellent tool for reporting and researching
7) How great story ideas arise out of the zeitgeist and are best told by actual people
Mark also addresses a listener question from Chris Lauber, F&B Director, The James New York - SoHo in New York City, on the kinds of COVID-19 driven changes that are likely to remain in place post-pandemic.
