I can give you one quick suggestion: try and get into conferences, expos and meetups of hospitality industries. From what I gather, you need to expose your product to shot callers as quickly as possible.
As an added bonus, if any such conference is set up in a hotel, you can ask the hotel to set up a complimentary demo of your service. Now, you've exposed your product to a hotel as well as the attendees.
Don't be disheartened if you don't get results immediately. Success of a startup depends on networking. If you dont get any clients out of a conference, make sure you network and connect with them later.
- erydo 15y agoThanks for the advice! You're absolutely right. We did a lot of research before jumping into this: interviewed with a lot of hotels, did our codevelopment, etc. But in ramping up to "let's get something solid that we can sell", we psychologically transitioned into a software development mode rather than a business development one; and now we're trying to reorient ourselves as we transition back.
