Not just a Hotel… Not just a review company… A Roadmap for Social Publishing in Hospitality…
Posted on 23. Jun, 2011 by JohnKnowles in Community, Hotel, Uncategorized
I recently was part of a webinar on social publishing which I found to be very insightful. Moderated by Josiah Mackenzie of Review Pro, the webinar made interesting observations regarding publishing strategies for the hospitality industry. The sharing of information in such a way will help lead best practice in online publishing.
Social Publishing webinar 1-2 by Panman
I was honored to speak and present with Josiah on Social Publishing and explore the current trends. I appreciate the initiative to take things to the next level. Sharing in the community will help improve business. Participation is key.
After learning more about Josiah and Review Pro, I know that they are not just a review management company. The dedication to engagement of ideas and process makes them stand out amongst their competitors. Getting to know the people, makes all the difference in their social strategy. I support their engagement strategies and look forward to participating and following future conversations. If you are interested in engaging with Review Pro and Josiah Mackenzie be sure to click through to the related links.
“Our culture is one of invitation. We use our video and content strategy to fuel the marketing in our business. The methods of social media will constantly evolve, but the dedication to community remains the same: Inform, educate, and encourage others to spread the word.”
- John Knowles
Thanks to all who are engaging with our culture. Please do engage with us, as we look to share in the moments, and engage in ideas.
Cheers,
John Knowles aka Panman

In on the rocks, two dudes are confronted with the task of scoring ice for drinks for their dates. What happens to them on this journey is both destructive and life affirming. The protaganists are faced with a grisly task in order to get the ice cold redemption which they seek. We are faced with the question: Will this experience put their friendship “on the rocks” or will it strengthen their resolve?

Surface or Substance: Food Writing in Magazines
Posted on 16. Feb, 2009 by Birdsong in Events, Hotel, RS Food Writers Conf, Uncategorized
What is the role of magazines in the food world today? Should they provide a practical guide to the kitchen, with plenty of recipes and useful techniques? Should they offer diversion through lifestyle stories and glossy images that make readers drool? Or do magazines have a responsibility to report on the ethical and political issues surrounding food in the twenty-first century? This panel of seasoned magazine editors and writers will explore the possibilities and limitations of food writing for magazines today.

Turning Your Life and Food into a Best Seller
Posted on 16. Feb, 2009 by Birdsong in Events, Hotel, RS Food Writers Conf, Uncategorized
In today’s world, food writing is everywhere– in newspapers, magazines, recipe headnotes, web sites, blogs and tweets. Much of it is informative and some of it pretty interesting, but not necessarily the stuff of literature. For that, readers turn to memoirs–some food based, some with food as a potent ingredient unveiling other lives and times. What distinguishes a food memoir and makes it fresh? These panelists will tell you how they did just that.
