Comprehensive Marketing for Marriott Hotels
Cogwheel Marketing knows all the Marriott marketing systems, from EPIC to eFast, from Brandworks to MDAM. Once we define a strategy, we can execute seamlessly in conjunction with the on-site hotel team.
We treat each hotel individually and know that each hotel and market operate differently. Our solutions cater to that, and support you in a way that complements your in-house team.
