As an Aspiring Innkeeper, you need a clear vision of starting a bed and breakfast or inn as a business and a lifestyle. In your seminar, we will address and work with you to understand all aspects of this wonderful and rewarding career. We want you to know Read More that our goal is to make sure that your goals are met as you work through the process. We will work with you to help you decide whether Innkeeping is the right profession for you, personally and financially. Your seminar provides a comprehensive overview of starting a bed and breakfast, from Amenities to Zoning. Examples of the many essential “starting a bed and breakfast” topics we cover are:
Innkeeping 101 – industry overview

This will be a fast-paced Saturday. We will cover the same material as in the full weekend seminar but without as much time for exercises, questions, and tangents. This is a great alternative if you can’t spare a whole weekend. Follow-up consultations can be scheduled individually on a case-by-case basis.
