Jacob Turnage Looks to the Future of Corporate Hospitality

Jacob Turnage, co-founder and Vice President of Marketing for EB Corporate, is looking at a bright future for the corporate hospitality industry.  With the economy fully entrenched in a slowdown, most companies are pulling back and spending less.  However, Jacob Turnage knows that like all economic cycles this is only temporary.

Jacob Turnage has been through this type of slowdown before.  After 9/11, Jacob Turnage worked with companies who cut back on travel and were worried about flat or declining revenues.  “We’ve been through difficult economic times before. We are not scared,” says Turnage. 

Jacob Turnage understands that to make money, you have to spend money.  It may be a bit cliché, but the 80/20 rule holds true.  Since the bulk of your profits come from so few, it only makes sense to treat the few to a little high end entertainment.  A well planned event to thank your clients for their business, or to encourage a new client to commit to your company, can go a long way towards building loyalty and deepening relationships.

Jacob Turnage believes that in this high pressure economy, helping his clients to create brand loyalty is vital to success. In this environment, where every dollar matters, Jacob Turnage’s consultative approach to doing business is appreciated by the Fortune 1000 companies EB Corporate partners with.
