Muskego - WI

Hotel Campaign Click the link to the left for the study and grant info.

Hi Dave,
Just wanted to let you know that Muskego is committed to getting a hotel still in the community. We have completed a Hotel Market Study and it turned out very well (See Conclusions Page 28). When you get a chance please take a look at the study and feel free to forward it onto possible Franchisees/Investors you may know that would have an interest. I've talked to the landowners of the land where the study was based upon and they are all looking forward to putting something together. Lastly, I've forwarded the study to a few key figures in Muskego that may be willing to be investors for possible franchisees you might have.
I believe Greg Hanis (Hospitality Marketers) may be talking to you this week about Muskego's study as well.
If you know of any interest for us from Country Inns and Suites franchisees please let me know!
Lastly, don't forget about our possible $100K grant to the first hotel to be approved and built in Muskego (Attached).
Thanks!
Jeff
