As we celebrate our 3rd Anniversary at La Posada de Taos, we realize that we have a lot to be thankful for. Since Day 1, our new hometown has welcomed us with open arms and embraced us with enthusiasm for our goals in restoring and preserving Taos' First B&B.
We knew all along that our efforts would succeed -- I mean, with an owner who supports everything we do, how could we fail?
The long-term plan was that once we had "settled in" to the business and things were well established, we would turn our attention to serving our community.
The Town of Taos has about 5000 permanent residents. There are another 10,000 or so in the unincorporated areas immediately surrounding Taos and a total of just over 30,000 in the entire County.
Incredibly, we get about a million visitors a year to Taos and the Taos Pueblo. So, even though the permanent population is small, the community is large in many ways.
Last year, yours truly, Innkeeper Brad Malone, was elected to the Board of Directors of the Taos Association of Bed & Breakfast Inns. Within the last few weeks I have been elected to the Board of Directors of the Taos County Chamber of Commerce.
Both positions are all about "Service" in organizations that are dedicated to keeping Taos in the forefront of the nation's list of "Top Destinations" and both require that evolving trends in Internet Marketing and other business tools be studied and quickly implemented.
But don't worry. I'm still around every hour of the day possible to focus on the needs of our guests and to help everyone have a great stay in Taos. In fact, this time of year, as we pass our average "last frost" date, I'll be here working in the yard and getting our Chef's Garden ready to plant in a few weeks.
C'mon out, won't you?
