Quality:
The quality standard of the Marriott is far from lenient; this is
something the company prides itself in. Marriott's brand is one of
the most respected, not to mention influential, in the
marketplace; with over 80 years of experience it has grown to be
a principal hospitality leader. Hotel brands such as the RitzCarlton and Bulgari, which the Marriott operates, are set to cater
all the luxury needs guests may require. On the other hand, the
more moderately priced SpringHill Suites and Courtyard carry on
amenities and services focused on total quality; never stepping
away from providing affordability to the customer. The high level
of quality is effectively maintained by strict franchise agreements;
often having managers and owners follow strict regulations from
the brand. The company continues to refine their business model,
innovate their brands, and essentially master the art of taking
care of customers.
Innovation:
A strong focus of the Marriott's business model is to consistently
formulate ways of making operations more efficient; in this they
have not failed. The company remains to be a leader in
developing innovative ways to improve the customer experience
and the process of conducting business. As previously mentioned,
Responsiveness to Customers:
In order to properly respond to customers' wants a company must
constantly identify and cater to their changing needs. The Marriott
has consistently taken steps to excel in this competitive
advantage, either through customization or consistent delivery of
quality service. In order to meet customer demands the Marriott
has utilized multiple systems, such as MARSH, to provide an
incomparable attention to its customers. It also depends heavily
on customer feedback to constantly improve customer
satisfaction and loyalty. The company is committed to providing a
level of quality that will keep customers coming back; whether it
is for business or for pleasure. The Marriott hotel brand is not only
notorious but also respected in the hotel industry. In 2009,
Fortune magazine ranked Marriott as number 37 in the World's
Most Admired Companies; a list that they have been a part of for
ten consecutive years. Awards such as this one, and many others,
clearly demonstrate the dominant brand value this company has
and will continue to have for years to come; millions of customers
can agree to this.
