In March 2010, Facebook out-passed Google and became the No. 1 site visited in the U.S. Last month, Americans spent over 41 million minutes on Facebook, as compared to under 40 million minutes on Google (including YouTube). If your company is not on Facebook or has not put ads on Facebook, probably it is the time to do so. Being late is better than doing nothing. If your company is already on Facebook, what are your Facebook strategies?

Yammer: A Social Networking Site Exclusively for the Workplace

By
Effective internal communications among employees are related to some desirable organizational outcomes, such as robust morale, a clear vision, low turnover, and high employee engagement. The question is what platform can serve the purpose. This ABC News video introduces “ Yammer ,” an exclusive internal communication tool for companies. A user must use a valid company e-mail address to sign up for an account. Once an account is validated, the user will be led to the company page that is pretty much like a Facebook page.

Can leisure and work-from-home demand stimulate extended-stay hotel growth beyond COVID-19?

By
The lodging industry is   struggling   to fill the empty rooms in 2020. For months, U.S. hotels are running at an occupancy of 50% or lower.     Not every segment   suffers the same impact from the pandemic, however. Demand for   home-sharing  facilities had already bounced back over the summer. Airbnb reported a higher booking than last year. Marriott’s home-sharing arm is also doing well, seeing a sevenfold increase in booking over last summer.     Similar to what a residential rental or home-sharing facility   offers , guestrooms in extended-stay hotels also feature a full-size kitchen or a kitchenette. Extended-stay hotels are designed for travelers who want to stay at a “home” when away from home. A guestroom at the Residence Inn Miami Sunny Isles Beach   Extended-stay hotels vs. home-sharing facilities     Because COVID-19 is primarily transmitted through direct or indirect human contacts, people are highly encouraged to avoid unnecessary human interactions, leading to more   con
