- Writing to the brand when the management company buys.
- Ignoring department heads who own a budget.
Is the hotels data any good?
Hotel staff email often sits on the management company or brand domain, which can change when a property changes hands. Paid plans show the check status, and catch-all domains are labeled.
On paid plans, standard verification is included, and a hard bounce through Buzz Send gives the contact back.
