Hotel Keycards

The use of metal keys for opening your hotel room is a thing of the past already. Today, most local and international hotel chains now offer high-tech hotel key cards, which allow their guests easy access to their rooms. For hotel guests, these access cards are also handy and lightweight, and also give hotel managers and owners other cost-effective benefits, as well as a more-improved manner of securing their establishment.

The Use Of Hotel Keycards Has Risen: Many tourist establishments today view the use of electronic key cards as a better and more high-tech option. Many hotels now utilize these electronic cards and their reliability has made them the preferred tool for use in college dorms, resorts and other home stay facilities. What makes this the equipment of choice is that hotel or dorm managers only need to recode the card each time a new guest moves in, especially if the room would be used only for a short stay. These types of cards also limit entry to restricted areas in facilities such as hospitals, colleges, government offices and corporate centers. The use of these plastic hotel key cards and badges provide a much higher level of security and privacy, which is a stringent requirement for most hotels, resorts and dormitories.
Other Key Card Perks: The plastic hotel key cards we see today at resorts and hotels have truly evolved from their conventional white plastic format, and are now also utilized as vital marketing tools for the businesses that use them. These electronically-formatted key cards now come in a wide array of unique designs and colors, and also display messages or advertisements that allow for convenient marketing tools. Today, there are many key card manufacturers, and each offer a different type of printing format or size. Hotels and resorts can choose from many designs and pricing schemes, and ensure that the card formats they agree upon are fully compatible with the existing locking systems of their facilities. Hotel owners and managers could check out each card manufacturer, and review the quality of their materials used, graphic and printing formats, and other advanced technological processes, as well as the quality of materials used in crafting the key card. Hotel guests need to be aware that the hotel will not quickly erase their basic personal information on the room entry cards, but will do so whenever a new guest arrives and checks in the room. The front desk staff will re-issue the card to the next guest, and will make sure that they overwrite the previous information stored. Another good aspect about using these plastic access cards is that they offer environment-friendly alternatives to metal keys, as well as eliminate the need for rewriting personal information on paper. Also, in the event that you lose your card during your stay, you can still access your room with a new keycard which will be issued to you, provided that you can prove to the front desk personnel that you are the rightful person who is checked-in to that room.

Helpful Key Card Options for Guests: Whenever a hotel wishes to implement the use of these electronic plastic access cards, they could have these customized to work well with their existing locking mechanisms and equipment. The cards may also be tested to ensure that they withstand regular wear and tear, and stay durable for as long as possible. You may also imprint the instructions for proper card use on the back portion of each plastic access card. These access cards are indispensable tools for restricting, as well as permitting, access to specific hotel rooms, especially in areas considered off-limits to hotel guests.

Apart from the efficient security features that these cards offer, these cards are also visually appealing, user-friendly and reliable marketing tools, and offer establishments with a wonderful advertising window, to help increase profits and ensure higher satisfaction by guests.

Mercedes-Benz is a German manufacturer of luxury automobiles, buses, coaches, and trucks. It is currently a division of the parent company, Daimler AG (formerly DaimlerChrysler AG), after previously being owned by Daimler-Benz. Mercedes-Benz has its origins in Karl Benz's creation of the first petrol-powered motorcycle in January 1886,[1] and by Gottlieb Daimler and engineer Wilhelm Maybach's conversion of a 1873 Bollée steam-engine automobile by the addition of a petrol engine the same year. The Mercedes automobile was first marketed in 1901 by Daimler Motoren Gesellschaft. The first Mercedes-Benz brand name vehicles were produced in 1926, following the merger of Karl Benz's and Gottlieb Daimler's companies into the Daimler-Benz company.[1] Mercedes-Benz has introduced many technological and safety innovations that have become common in other vehicles several years later.


Mercedes-Benz Accessories GmbH is an independent subsidiary based in Stuttgart-Vaihingen, founded in 2000. Its business include car accessories, personal accessories, Collection and promotional items, and product design.[2]

Mercedes-Benz AMG became a majority owned division of Mercedes-Benz in 1998.[3] The company was integrated into DaimlerChrysler in 1999,[4] and became Mercedes-Benz AMG beginning on 1999-01-01.[5]

Mercedes-Benz is currently owned by Daimler AG. Germany.



Since its inception, Mercedes-Benz had maintained a reputation for its quality and durability. Objective measures looking at passenger vehicles - such as J.D. Power surveys, demonstrated a downturn in reputation in this criteria in the late 1990s and early 2000s. By mid-2005, Mercedes temporarily returned to the industry average for initial quality, a measure of problems after the first 90 days of ownership, according to J.D. Power.[6] In J.D. Power's Initial Quality Study for the first quarter of 2007, Mercedes showed dramatic improvement by climbing from 25th to 5th place, surpassing quality leader Toyota, and earning several awards for its models.[7] For 2008, Mercedes-Benz's initial quality rating improved by yet another mark, now in fourth place.[8] On top of this accolade, it also received the Platinum Plant Quality Award for its Mercedes’ Sindelfingen, Germany assembly plant.[8] As of 2009, Consumer Reports of the United States has changed their reliability ratings for several Mercedes-Benz vehicles to "average", and recommending the E-Class and the S-Class.


The two companies which were merged to form the Mercedes-Benz brand in 1926 had both already enjoyed success in the new sport of motor racing throughout their separate histories - both had entries in the very first automobile race Paris to Rouen 1894. This has continued, and throughout its long history, the company has been involved in a range of motorsport activities, including sports car racing and rallying. On several occasions Mercedes-Benz has withdrawn completely from motorsport for a significant period, notably in the late 1930s, and after the 1955 Le Mans disaster, where a Mercedes-Benz 300SLR collided with another car and killed more than 80 spectators. Although there was some activity in the intervening years, it was not until 1987 that Mercedes-Benz returned to front line competition, returning to Le Mans, Deutsche Tourenwagen Meisterschaft (DTM), and Formula One with Sauber.

The 1990s saw Mercedes-Benz purchase British engine builder Ilmor (now Mercedes-Benz High Performance Engines), and campaign IndyCars under the USAC/CART rules, eventually winning the 1994 Indianapolis 500 and 1994 CART IndyCar World Series Championship with Al Unser, Jr. at the wheel. The 1990s also saw the return of Mercedes-Benz to GT racing, and the Mercedes-Benz CLK GTR, both of which took the company to new heights by dominating the FIA's GT1 class.

Mercedes-Benz is currently active in three forms of motorsport, Formula Three, DTM and Formula One.

Web sites are good marketing tools but they do not provide hotel sales, catering sales and the event planning sales professional with the resources and education needed to streamline the sales process to each sales and inquiry call.

In today's competitive sales environment, time is money. Distribution and presentation of sales material quickly and professionally - while providing personal attention to the client - can make the difference between the sale and lost business. Web sites should be a tangible Hotel Internet Marketing sales tool, providing sales professionals all the necessary items needed to present and close the sale efficiently.

Today's full services and limited service hotel web sites have been built to reflect the web designer's technical goals and restrictions instead of the goals and needs of the hotel sales and catering sales professional. Traditional web sites do not provide the tools and knowledge your hotel sales and catering sales staff members need to close the sale with one phone call, while providing traditional sales 101 standards virtually?

In the age of computers and Internet, it's easy to lose touch with guests. Quick, easy and up-to-date information is no longer available. In order to find the information they are looking for, clients may have to go to a corporate web site or independent web site and access e-mails, attachments, word documents, links, web programs and PDF brochures or resort to faxes, phone calls and snail-mail. What happened to one-on-one personal attention to help a client decide on services? The Internet has taken away the personal edge that sales once had before web site development.

The hotel and event planning industries must organize its virtual sales procedures to ensure an increase in profits and a decrease in annual marketing and advertising budgets. Studies have shown that 85% of those who respond first to an inquiry with complete sales information and provide personal attention to the client will win the business.

Web Sites should provide your sales staff with virtual sales tools to close the sale faster and more efficiently, saving you time and money. Incorporating sales 101 into your virtual sales programs helps you sell above and beyond your competitors, while providing you with the tools to streamline your sales process and create a paperless sales environment.

Distribution and presentation of your sales material instantly and professionally - while providing personal attention to the client - can make the difference between the sale and lost business. Web sites should be a tangible sales tool, providing sales professionals all the necessary items needed to present and close the sale efficiently in one phone call. Web sites are good, but the hotel sales and advertising industry has lost track of the fundamentals of selling. Personal attention has been lacking in the sales process through most web sites. Sales 101, tells us the importance of things such as building rapport, education, client name/information displayed, communicating information quickly, and providing special personal attention above and beyond everyone else.
