WHY IT RATES: The podcast gives listeners access to selling strategies, thoughts and insights, all from industry experts.-Jessica Zickefoose, TravelPulse Associate Editor


AIC Hotel Group-the hospitality powerhouse offering unmatched vacation experiences-is excited to announce the official launch of This Job Sucks, the first-of-its-kind podcast exclusively produced for the brand's industry partners.

Breaking away from monotonous webinars, the bi-weekly episodes will serve as an "on-the-go" tool for travel agents to have insider access to selling strategies, thoughts and insights from industry experts and the answers to their burning questions surrounding industry news and AIC Hotel Group updates.

Hosted by Daniel Jimenez, business development manager at AIC Hotel Group, each episode will air bi-weekly and dives into brand initiatives and specific topics in the realm of hospitality and travel in a candid, lively and engaging manner.

Aside from what everyone has come to expect from webinars, this podcast will give listeners a better understanding of AIC Hotel Group's strategies and touch on controversial subjects through informative, lighthearted and fun chatter.

In addition to what travel agents have come to expect from webinars, the podcast also covers funny anecdotes, a touch on controversial topics, travel agent Q & A's and never-before-told stories of how some of AIC Hotel Group's signature events came to fruition.

The audio series will also feature interviews with the brand's executives, business partners, hotel general managers, and other special guests to bring listeners real conversations and important takeaways that can be applied to their daily business practices.

"Webinars are a thing of the past and not very practical for those of us who are constantly on the go without access to a computer or a strong enough internet connection," said Ash Tembe, vice president of North America sales at AIC Hotel Group.

"Our travel partners are always at the forefront of our priorities, which is why we constantly go above and beyond to ensure they're equipped with the necessary tools to succeed. This podcast is perfectly packaged in an easy-to-consume format, eliminating the need to tune in at a particular time or day."

This Job Sucks can be streamed and downloaded on iTunes, SoundCloud and allinagents.com/podcast.
