Hospitality is the one of many sector of tourism industry that growing rapidly in
Indonesia. Almost every province and region in this country has its own hotel. Hotels are
built both in big cities and in rural areas. According to the decree of the Minister of
Tourism, Post and Telecommunications, November of 23 in 1987, hotel is a type of
accommodation that uses each part or all of its building to provide lodging, food, and
drink services, as well as other commercially managed services (Rahadian & Pratomo,
2013).
Many hotels are built throughout Indonesia, especially in Bali. Harris Hotel and
Residences Riverview Kuta Bali is one of many hotels becoming a choice for business,
people and families. Be sides, this hotel is located in the heart of Denpasar city. Harris
hotel has its own uniqueness from most of other hotels in Denpasar because this hotel
is built on the riverbank, near from shopping centers, beaches, and direct access to
main roads.
Meanwhile when the plague of coronavirus hits the world, the situation was
different. According to the World Health Organization or WHO, the 2019 corona virus
pandemic or known as Covid-19 originated from the Chinese city of Wuhan and it is
rapidly spreading in many countries in the world. Scientists of epidemiology believe that
many countries are not ready for this condition. Italy, Malaysia, Singapore, and
Indonesia also have not escaped from the spread of this new virus. Indonesia has been
affected, as indicated by the arrival of Indonesian tourists returned from traveling from a
country that has been infected by this virus. Less of awareness has resulted in this virus
becoming more widespread and ultimately causing casualties and community panic. The
Pandemic of Covid-19 has affected Indonesia's businesses especially in the economic
structure. Many industries are not operated according to the initial target, closed
temporarily or even permanently. Hotel industry has been affected rapidly and most
impacted by this Pandemic.
Many hotels have been forced to close due to no more arrival guests,
restaurants and meeting businesses are no longer visitors. Currently, there are many
policies conducted by the Central Government to inhibit the spread and also the policies
in economic sector and community welfare which greatly impact all sections of society
regardless of class and strata of people's lives. Moreover, the governments recommend to
stay at home, work from home, and study at home so that many of the hotel industries
become bankrupt.
Due to the impact of corona pandemic, it takes several kinds of strategies applied by

surviving or increasing sales revenue. This may be very difficult considering that tourist
arrivals are limited and the economic capacity begins to decline due to this corona
outbreak.

Sleeping account is a sales strategy in which guest data who have stayed at a hotel or used
hotel facilities will not return for a long time, therefore sales will contact him again so
that guests remember our hotel and come to the hotel again. Sleeping account contains :
Name of company, Name of the PIC, address, Phone Number, Email address. The sales
staff should do telemarketing to the guest. The staff should call the guest or send a
message to the guest, do small talk and attract the attention of the guests so that the guest
is interested in visiting the Harris Riverview again.
A person's PIC is in charge of a particular event, project or task. In general, the task of a
PIC is to be overall responsible for the event and the development of the event or
project, as well as answering questions raised by members. If there is a reservation for a
room or group guest meeting room at a hotel, the name of the PIC is important to ask for
the
certainty or details of the father of a group guest and a photo is also fully responsible for
the event
4.2.2.3 Address
address is the place of the company or the location of a company. This is also very
important to note to make it easier for workers if one day they want to send documents or

is used to send several files, to make it easier for workers and a sales person to not need
to send files to a guest address
4.2.3.1 Facilities
4.2.3.2 Rate
The price which is the value of a product, this must also be very concerned because a
guest is usually more focused on price, for example if our competitor sells room prices at
a lower price than our hotel, a salesperson must find out why competitors can sell at a
higher price cheap, because if our competitors lower prices while we stay at normal
prices, guests will switch to other hotels
4.2.3.3 Location
Location is where a company operates, a hotel is usually located in the city center or
tourist attractions. a salesperson must memorize the location of the hotel and also its
competitors. Is close to the city center, to the beach, to the airport, to the shopping center.
This is very useful for handling rejection from guests
Social media branding is marketing in digital form, which uses social media platforms to
promote products owned by a company. The aim is that the products owned by a
company can be known through social media by all people in the world. As we know, the
use of social media is very large and almost all people in this world use social media to
find information, shop, and show their daily activities. frequently used social media such
as Instagram, Facebook, etc. Harris Riverview use some social media, the often social
media that use by Harris Riverview is Instagram and facebook, because both social media
very popular and can be access around the world, so when the we upload some photo or
video the people around the world can see it, so social media is the one strategy that use
for promoted the hotel.

Facebook is one of the social media that has more than one billion active users, therefore
offering products on Facebook is very effective because it can be seen by people all over
the world by simply uploading a picture or video of our product. The use of social media
of course also saves time. Usually business people use Facebook ads to promote their
product.
4.2.4.2 Instagram
Instagram, a social media that is widely used by teenagers and adults. This application is
also very good for branding so that the products we sell are better known to everyone.
