酒店產(chǎn)品營銷的成功于否在于季度營銷渠道的概念和類型
1.酒店營銷渠道的概念
    酒店營銷渠道，也稱為酒店分銷渠道，它是指酒店服務(wù)產(chǎn)品消費者產(chǎn)生消費動機開始，進入酒店之后，到最終消費酒店服務(wù)產(chǎn)品的整個過程中所經(jīng)歷的各個環(huán)節(jié)以及相應(yīng)的一切活動的總和。簡單說就是指將酒店服務(wù)產(chǎn)品銷售給最終消費者（個體、公司或機構(gòu)單位）的各個環(huán)節(jié)的總和。在現(xiàn)在的市場經(jīng)濟條件下，有廣闊的市場容量，大部分的酒店服務(wù)產(chǎn)品必須依靠一定的營銷渠道，才能將其費產(chǎn)品銷售到顧客一方。它是營銷組合（Promotion Mix）中的重要組合部分，同時它既是上海酒店VI設(shè)計和酒店服務(wù)產(chǎn)品商品化的必經(jīng)之路，也是連接酒店服務(wù)產(chǎn)品和賓客的中間渠道。其作用在于能使酒店服務(wù)產(chǎn)品更有效、更方便、更快捷地讓顧客購買到，而不同的營銷渠道，也決定著酒店營銷活動的成功于否。
2.酒店營銷渠道的類型
    酒店營銷渠道中，根據(jù)到達最終酒店產(chǎn)品消費者所經(jīng)歷的環(huán)節(jié)，可分兩種主要模式：直接營銷渠道與間接營銷渠道。
   （1）直接營銷渠道
    又稱零層次渠道，指酒店不經(jīng)過人和一個中間商，由酒店將服務(wù)產(chǎn)品直接銷售給最終消費者，亦即顧客直接向酒店購買產(chǎn)品。酒店企業(yè)通常情況下有三種直接營銷渠道模式供大家參考。
    ①酒店——最終消費者（營銷點為酒店現(xiàn)場）。指酒店直接向前來且有入住需求的顧客銷售酒店服務(wù)產(chǎn)品，這是酒店的傳統(tǒng)營銷方式。
    ②酒店——最終消費者（營銷點為客源地、顧客單位或家里）。指有入住需求的顧客通過電話、傳真、電腦網(wǎng)絡(luò)等各種途徑向酒店預(yù)訂其產(chǎn)品的模式。信息技術(shù)的不斷進步使其被廣泛應(yīng)用于各個行業(yè)，電腦普及的程度日益加深，今年來對于酒店來說，最重要的營銷渠道就是網(wǎng)絡(luò)。酒店應(yīng)利用好這一科技的優(yōu)勢，做好本酒店網(wǎng)站建設(shè)（網(wǎng)頁設(shè)計、預(yù)訂信息更新、回復(fù)確認(rèn)等方面）工作，以提高酒店產(chǎn)品的營銷質(zhì)量和效率。
    ③酒店——自建銷售點——最終消費者（營銷點為銷售點現(xiàn)場）。指酒店在其經(jīng)營范圍或區(qū)域內(nèi)自行設(shè)立營銷點（如機場、港口等），直接向顧客銷售。酒店集團成員之間相互代理預(yù)訂，共享客源等也屬于這一模式。
   （2）間接銷售渠道
    隨著旅游市場日益國際化，直接銷售渠道的效果愈顯下降，這一模式已難以更有效地吸引市場細(xì)分化的顧客，為了緩解這一嚴(yán)峻的壓力，很多酒店意識到可以借助代理商、批發(fā)商、零售商等銷售機構(gòu)開展?fàn)I銷活動。這種需要中間商參與產(chǎn)品的經(jīng)銷、代理或其他形式的銷售將酒店服務(wù)產(chǎn)品銷售到最終消費者一方的有效途徑便稱為間接銷售渠道。
    根據(jù)中間商介入的個數(shù)不同，間接營銷渠道有不同的模式，酒店通常有三種間接營銷渠道可供選擇。
    ①單層渠道。
    其一，酒店以旅游代理商——最終消費者。酒店將其產(chǎn)品以較低的價格出售給代理商，由代理商組織客源。
    其二，酒店——其他營銷渠道（如航空公司或郵輪公司）——最終消費者。酒店將其產(chǎn)品的銷售由航空公司等機構(gòu)代理銷售，將酒店產(chǎn)品轉(zhuǎn)移到顧客手中。
    ②兩層渠道。
    其一，酒店——旅游經(jīng)銷商——旅游代理商——最終消費者。酒店以較為低廉（低于門市價）的價格銷售給經(jīng)銷商（如旅行社），旅游經(jīng)銷商再將其產(chǎn)品批量銷售或預(yù)訂給旅游代理商，代理商則將產(chǎn)品銷售給最終消費者。
    其二，酒店——其他營銷渠道（如航空公司或郵輪公司）——旅游代理商——最終消費者。酒店以較為低廉（低于門市價）的價格銷售給其他一些酒店營銷渠道（如航空公司或郵輪公司），再有這些機構(gòu)將其產(chǎn)品批量銷售或預(yù)訂給旅游代理商，代理商則將產(chǎn)品銷售給最終消費者。
    ③三層渠道。酒店——旅游批發(fā)商——旅游經(jīng)銷商——旅游代理商——最終消費者。酒店將其他產(chǎn)品大批量以較低廉的價格批發(fā)給旅游批發(fā)商，再由批發(fā)商與經(jīng)銷商在價格談判基礎(chǔ)上銷售給旅游代理商，最后由代理商將其產(chǎn)品批量銷售或預(yù)訂給最終消費者。
