Electronic House Call E-Letter

Since 1997, the Electronic House Call (EHC) has been my way to share personal observations, insights and general items of interest to the hospitality community. It is a short format that can be read in just a couple of minutes (who has time to digest pages of text anyway?)

In case you are wondering about whether there is value here for you, take a look at some comments from EHC subscribers. Even though the EHC is free, there are still a few things you might want to know before you subscribe:

Privacy Policy:
Your name and contact information will never be made available to any third party. Period. You can access the detailed Privacy Policy by clicking the link at the bottom of every page of the website.

Political Correctness:
Not going to happen. I do not set out to intentionally annoy anyone, but the EHC will always be a means for me to express what I see and what I think it means. You may or may not agree with me, but your agreement -- while reassuring -- it is not required. My purpose is to get you to think in a slightly different way ... or at least become aware of your own preconceived ideas. That is not always comfortable. It can, however, be quite productive.

Commercial Policy:
I do not want EHC to become overly commercial ... AND I reserve the right to include brief notes about specific events, products, services and subscriber-only deals from time to time. If you have a philosophical aversion to such offers, just know that I typically put them toward the end of the issue or in the margins so you aren't forced to read them and risk offending your tender sensibilities. (The EHC is free but I still have a mortgage. Get over it!)

Add your name to the EHC mailing list. The price is right ... and you can unsubscribe at any time.

But if you want more, you can subscribe to the EHC Special Edition. It contains three times the information of the Complimentary Edition ... for a nominal annual subscription of $39 -- just 75 cents an issue!

The EHC Special Edition is also included as part of my Gold Group membership. This gives you a risk-free way to check out all the perks of membership (including the EHC Special Edition).

The dual format lets you choose the level of information you can absorb. My hope is that the option of receiving as much -- or as little -- as you want will help the EHC remain a welcome resource that you look forward to reading.
