21. The look and feel of the website is very dull and it is not
conveying the vibrant, contemporary and engaging image
of the brand.
So many links and back
links are making the
website cluttered and
congested.
22. No proper use of the background. The black
background is giving a dull feel to the website.
23. India’s First Dilmah T-bar
is not properly
highlighted/promoted
on the home page.
This section should be
promoted properly on
the home page.
The deals or its brief description should be
visible on the homepage itself.
24. So many navigation creates confusion. The primary and
secondary navigation should be in a proper hierarchy.
25. The inner pages of
the website also
includes a plenty of
steps to check the
basic
Information like rate
and images.

29. More Suggestions:-
• Need to implement “Online Chat” function. Adding live chat options (where a
visitor can talk directly and instantly) to your website will help increase sales &
conversions and improve customer satisfaction.
• We recommended to have approx. 50-100 words content on home page
(www.radissonblu.com/hotel-hyderabad) and the phone no. should appear at the
right top of the page for better conversion.
• Video testimonials of satisfied customers play an important role for new visitor
to acquire the service from the site.
• “Why choose us” section which emphasizes on the benefits of taking services
from you.
30. • Testimonial page should be available on the website; it will impact on the new
visitor to acquire the services from the website.
• Need to improve call to action, special discount banners should be highlighted on
the home page.
• “Free call back” facility wherein a person can mention a phone number and a call is
made to them.
• We would suggest you the new website on domain radissionbluhyderabad.com
• We would also recommend you to build the mobile websites as most of the users
now browse sites through their mobiles and no mobile compatible website means
you are losing those customers.

42. We are doing good on social media but now we need a
campaign, a story. Story that your customers would
share(WOM).
So, here we are coming up with a brand new story, a fresh campaign.
43. • We know that Customer Stories is the ace in the marketing.
• Our story would create plenty of other stories that your
customers would share with his/her friends and family.
• So let’s start with a story….
45. Who is Mr. Rohn?
• Rohn is 35 year old chef from Goa. His father is a
Portuguese and his mother is from Panji.
• He is married to a South Indian girl based in Hyderabad.
• He is master-chef at Radission Blu Plaza Hyderabad and
has got a Hotel Management degree from IHM, Mumbai.

anytime.
Rohn is known for his delicious continental and sea foods.
Other chef call him Harry Potter. Yes, he do have a magic
wand for sure
46. Who is Riya?

Hyderabad.

right person to contact because she knows almost
everything about the city.

sightseeing then we would use Riya as our communication medium on Social
Media.

F&B.

50. What else apart from such regular posts and
tweets?
Online Engagement Online + Offline Engagement
51. Online Engagement
On Facebook: 360 Degree Treasure Hunt Contest
Objective: To promote hotel properties and dining in an interesting way and to engage
with fans.
Idea: The idea is to create a 360 Degree video of the hotel interior and using that
video we would ask some questions to our fans. Rohn and Riya would give them hints
in between the contest.
Eg: Tell us the color of the saree the lady has wore in the painting on the left wall of
the dining hall.
Where we would run the contest?: On a Facebook tab and fans would answer it
through the comment plug-in.
53. Sunday Brunch Contest
Objective: To promote Sunday Brunch among the new and existing fans.
Idea: The idea is to ask fans to share the pic of their Lunch/Dinner with an interesting
caption. Every week the most interesting entry would WIN a couple entry pass of the
Sunday Brunch. The winner would be chosen by Rohn and Riya from Radisson Blu
Plaza Hotel.
Where we would run the contest?: On a Facebook app where fans would upload
their pictures with the caption.
55. On Twitter:
Follow and RT
Contest
On Twitter we would start with the Follow and RT contest in which we would ask
people to follow us and RT a particular tweet.
That particular tweet will include the message about the Sunday Brunch and the link
to the website.
Eg: Follow us & RT this tweet to WIN a couple entry pass of the Sunday Brunch at
Radisson Blu Plaza #Hyderabad. [Link of Sunday Brunch]
56. Hashtag based
contests
Hashtags are the best way to make your brand visible on Twitter.
Some of the hashtags that we can use are:
#myfavouriteSundayBrunch
#foodformeislike
#foodicantresist
#SundayBrunchatRadisson
#thingstodoinhyderabad
#wheniwasinhyderabad
#ilovehyderabadcoz
These all hashtags have potential to engage our target audience and create word of
mouth and more visibility on Twitter.
57. On Instagram:
• Instagram is widely used to click vintage photographs of foods and objects.
• We can have a contest in which we would ask our fans to click images of dishes
through Instagram and share it on Instagram with hashtag #ShootTheFood and the
most interesting image would be selected as the winner.
•The contest would be promoted through Facebook and other social media channels.
58. We would also develop a micro-portal where we will fetch all the images with the
description #ShootTheFood from Instagram.
59. Online + Offline Engagement
On Facebook:
Smile with Rohn and Riya Contest
• This is an interesting way of creating user generated content. In this contest we
would keep dummies of our character Rohn and Riya at the hotel.
• We would ask our visitors to click their smiling image with Rohn or Riya and they
would have to upload that picture on our Facebook page. The best entry would
WIN awesome goodies from Radisson Blu Plaza Hyderabad.
60. Do you ‘Like’ us?
•This is an interesting way of integrating online and offline marketing.
• Here we would build a kiosk with 2-3 iPads and we would ask our visitors to like
the Radissson Blu Plaza Hyderabad on Facebook and they would get a flat 10%
discount on their total bill.
• This would help us in adding our right TG on our Facebook page.
62. BBM QR code Contest
• QR Code of drawing online interaction with the guests
• Most of the business class people have BlackBerry with them so this campaign is to
target that niche audience.
• We would ask our guests to add us on their BBM list and on doing this they would get a
5% off on their total bill.
• We can use these BBM database to broadcast interesting offers on their mobiles.
63. E-Menu – Tablet/iPad
• Self Descriptive E – Menu application, which works on Tablet computers
• Ask for a Waiter/ Place an Order/ Request Cheque features
• Menu Rating feature
• Lead generation through login and feedback mechanism
• Share to Facebook, twitter
• Facebook/ Foursquare check-ins and rewards
64. • We would develop an iPad/Tablet app for taking orders at the restaurant. The
user will have to login through Facebook/Twitter or Foursquare and once he will
login it will automatically share the check-in and the user will be rewarded 10%
discount on his/her order.
• This app would give a pleasant experience to the user and will help us in
becoming viral on Social Media.
