Robin Rankin Joins Dublin Hotel as Business Travel Sales Manager
JUNE 30, 2008. Embassy Suites Columbus - Dublin, a leading Dublin, Ohio hotel located near the capital city of Columbus, is proud to announce Robin Rankin as the newest addition to the property's sales management team.
Ms. Rankin joins the team as the Business Travel Sales Manager with a general responsibility of building relationships with local businesses and improving corporate travel business to the hotel.
Ms. Rankin is a Certified Meeting Professional and brings over 20 years experience in the hospitality industry including 13 years in the Dublin area. She was previously awarded Supplier of the Year by the Ohio Chapter of Meeting Professional International for her industry contributions.
Past employment as a meeting professional for both the Stouffer Dublin Hotel and the Dublin Convention & Visitors Bureau has lent her invaluable experience in working with a national association and with the business travel market, experience that has her excited for the new opportunity.
'It is great to be back in Dublin representing one of the best hotels in the region,' says Ms. Rankin. 'I look forward to getting reacquainted with business travel managers and agents at the many quality companies in the area.'
As economic recession has led to a decrease in leisure travel nationwide, maintaining strong corporate travel business has become increasingly critical. To Ms. Rankin's benefit, Columbus is emerging as a global city, with offices for AT&T, IBM, Nationwide Insurance, The Scotts Company, and Wendy's International in close proximity to the hotel.
Ms. Rankin has a Bachelors of Arts in Marketing from Florida State University.
