Why do customers come to a resort hotel instead of booking other resort hotels?Secondly,through interviews and questionnaire surveys,the marketing status and customer needs of A Resort Hotel in the post pandemic era were analyzed.As a result,it was found that the marketing of A Resort Hotel did not accurately target the main target customer group and did not have sufficient understanding of the changes in consumer consumption habits after the epidemic.Therefore,a solution and method for precise marketing of A Resort Hotel were proposed from three aspects: product,channel,and price.In terms of products,it can expand advantages,innovate forms,and enrich varieties;In terms of channels,online marketing methods can be optimized,marketing channels can be expanded,and offline marketing can be strengthened;In terms of pricing,tiered pricing and pricing techniques can be applied.Finally,this thesis puts forward precision marketing strategies and guarantee strategies,such as strengthening awareness,providing organizational and financial support,and using new precision marketing methods.It is expected that the research in this thesis can help the hotel adapt to the post-epidemic market operation environment as soon as possible,improve the hotel marketing and management level,enhance the competitiveness of the hotel,and better meet the people’s better demand for hotel consumption.
