Hendrie, Hospitality PerformanceAnd Rick Hendrie, Remarkable BrandingPlastic utensils at a fine dining establishment? How gauche!  Bright reds, Op Art, and the Rolling Stones in the background at your Spa? How disquieting!  Ratty signs, unmowed grass, poorly clipped shrubs at the entrance to your resort? Nasty!  Regular paper, four-ply toilet tissue, 60 watt bulbs at your eco property? No Green here!  Naugahide booths at your bistro? Mighty retro!  A Guest Book at your roadside diner?  Really!  Not on your life, you say. May we introduce you to a Brand misfired, to sensibilities affronted, to missed opportunities.  And, what to do about it! Mon, 07 Aug 2006 09:40:01 +0000
