Many solutions to one big problemThe problem is most people don't know enough about the bed and breakfast industry to be a successful innkeeper. They often don't have the tools to do the job. The answer lies in taking at least one innkeeping class. My class, The Innkeeping Balancing Act: Business versus Hospitality, gives you three options to solve your problem. You can get an overview of the B&B industry, if you need only a little information to help you decide if this is a viable career and lifestyle option of you to pursue, by taking the Overview Seminar. If you plan to be a successful B&B innkeeper, the Indepth Seminar is for you. Both classes are available online. The Indepth Seminar is also available face-to-face. Determine if innkeeping is for you The Online Overview SeminarThe Overview Seminar is designed to help you make a sound decision about being a B&B innkeeper -- or not. Don't be too quick to assume the answer is yes! This class provides an introduction to the B&B industry. In the Overview Seminar I review the elements to be considered that distinguish between the reality of the business and the romanticized lifestyle myth. The first half of the course covers the money aspects. The second half of the course covers the business and hospitality aspects of innkeeping. Topic "titles" are: Getting In, How Much Money Can A B&B Make, How Much Money Does It Take To Run a B&B, What Is Your Market Niche Definition Or Brand, Guest Services And Policies, and Avoiding Innkeeper Burnout. The Overview Seminar is available from the comfort of your home or office, and at your leisure by virtue of taking the class online. You save the time and cost of travel and you get to work when you want and at your own pace.

The Online Indepth Seminar covers everything from the beginning of your dream through the first three years
of operation. Learn secrets that will help you buy your bed and breakfast inn wisely, and then operate it
profitably. The objective is to provide you with the tools you will need to pursue and implement this
business and lifestyle successfully.
The Online Indepth Seminar is available from the comfort of your home or office, and at your leisure by
taking the class via the internet. You save the time and cost of travel, start the class anytime you want,
and work at your own pace. The same material is covered in this class as in the Face-to-Face Indepth
Seminar. Another benefit of the Online Seminar over the Face-to-Face Seminar is that you have more
opportunity to ask lots of questions by virtue of not having the two-day time constraint. You have ample
opportunity to ask your burning questions and get personalized responses.
Topics covered include: market niche, market research, writing a business plan, projecting cash flow,
marketing, daily operations, hospitality, burnout issues, standards, compliance with the
Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), reservations, staffing, and buying a property.
The class materials are presented through my eBook "Seminar Collection" (books 1-5), the Buying a B&B
Inn and the two Quick Guides -- all are included in the price. As you read the books you
email questions to me about your business concept, the presented materials and your burning issues. Email
your completed worksheets included in each book too. I'll share my feedback to help round your education.
One benefit of actively participating in the seminar this way is that you will have your business plan
well underway by the time you finish the course. Our interactions during this seminar give you the support
and guidance in developing your business model, based on your needs and concept of success. You will learn
how to price and evaluate bed and breakfast inns for sale so you can research your inn purchase more
readily. I share operating secrets from innkeepers across the country, not just from the inns I managed,
so you have a brader background for your decisions. Another benefit is that you will learn more and be
more successful in your B&B business.
The investment is $1,547. The cost includes tuition, six eBooks with worksheets to help you write your
business plan, two Quick Guides, and one-on-one consulting during the class. You select the pace and
timing of your education.

projections, marketing, daily operations, hospitality, burnout issues, standards, compliance with the
