On the Built4Profit Podcast, hosts Elizabeth and Sha interview Tesh Patel, Senior Director of Franchise Development at Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, and unpack how the hotel industry is largely franchise-based and often owned by individuals, families, or partnerships.
Patel explains his role developing Wyndham’s select-service brands in the Southeast, including La Quinta, Microtel, Hawthorne Suites, and the newer Echo Suites, created post-COVID to meet demand in the economy extended-stay segment with 200+ deals signed and about 15 open!
He shares his upbringing working in a 28-room motel, how AAHOA helped fight discrimination, and why success depends on commitment, hands-on leadership, strong key managers, service, and proactively managing reviews.
