Episode Synopsis

Every established brand faces a moment when they need to evolve, but what happens when your reputation is deeply rooted in decades of history? For many legacy hotel brands, the challenge isn't just about staying current - it's about completely transforming how people perceive your entire organization.

Think about it: when's the last time you made a snap judgment about a hotel brand based on what you thought you knew about them from years ago? Or dismissed a property because of outdated perceptions? In today's digital-first world, changing those perceptions isn't just about renovating properties or updating logos - it's about strategically reshaping your brand story through social media.

That's exactly the challenge that Best Western Hotels & Resorts has been tackling head-on. Today, we're joined by someone who's been at the forefront of this digital transformation. Emily Huffer, Social Media Manager at BWH Hotels, is leading the charge in modernizing Best Western's brand perception through innovative social media strategies, creator partnerships, and authentic storytelling. With her background in digital marketing and passion for building genuine community connections, Emily is here to share how they're using social media to write an exciting new chapter in Best Western's story.
