Industry Interview NAME: Louise
Parfoot POSITION: Sales Manager AT: Holiday Inn London Gatwick Worth FOR: 2 years MAIN RESPONSIBILITIES:
Weddings, Events, Meetings and Corporate Sales What are your professional goals and dreams?
“To continue to love my job and run a happy and successful team!” What do you love most about your job?
“Meeting and working with such great people. The Team I work with are so customer driven and all enjoy working at the hotel, this comes across in the fantastic customer service that is given. Seeing customers receiving this 1st class service makes my role very enjoyable. With loads of different personalities within the hotel it is never a dull day!”
What has been the biggest lesson of your career so far?
“Don’t be scared to challenge behaviour’s and tasks that you don’t believe in, find other solutions to achieve the same goal.” You have £1m to spend in 24 hours, what would you spend it on?
“Buy a big traditional villa with a pool on the beautiful island of Santorini in Greece, over looking the sea and volcano and big enough for family and friends to come and stay. I would go to Las Vegas with my husband for a holiday and enjoy the spending in the casino. I would buy my Mum & Dad a house with a garden so they can retire early and enjoy retirement together. I would buy a brand new sports car, not sure what one as I know nothing about cars, shoes, shoes, shoes and handbags! If there is any money left, a great big party to share with Family and Friends.” What one word best describes you?
“Passionate!”
What has been your most embarrassing moment in your career?
What is your favourite meal?
“Splitting my dress all the way down in the office, thank god for thick tights!”
“Chinese food, especially Sweet & Sour Chicken that is my favourite dish.”
What achievements are you most proud of?
If you could have one superpower, what would it be?
“Winning a Sales Manager award where I was in the top performing 1% of my company. I was awarded an all expenses trip to Barcelona in a 5 star hotel overlooking the marina, spending money and special treats lined up all week including meeting Neil Armstrong the 1st man on the moon!”
“To do all tasks super speedy using my powers, I might then get to items on the bottom of my to do list!”
What’s the best piece of career advise you have been given?
“Take the best in class in what you want to achieve from your peers and competitors and then add your own 10%”

What our Customers and Members say about using Infotel “The team at Infotel strive to get the best deal possible and using criteria that we set as a business, deliver time after time to ensure our workforce have suitable places to stay. As a business we receive one invoice per month which appeases the accounts department and takes way the task of matching individual bookings with credit card/account statements. The great thing about Infotel is that relationship they have with over 700,000 hotels worldwide. They negotiate the best rates and provide a great place to stay for our people.” Gavin Hancox - ISG Retail & Hospitality

“Having signed up to use the services of Infotel in March 2015 we at The MacDonald Arms Hotel are delighted with the service this company has provided right from the initial set-up of installing the portal and for on-line reservations via our own company website, of which there has now been a few.
