I founded \"The Hospitality Group\"​ here at Equity Inc. We help restaurant and hotel clients plan their Brand roll-outs in cities and states across the country.We work within each MSA to expeditiously create Brand Awareness while optimizing Growth Potential by finding the best real estate opportunities to drive Your Brand! We strive to attain \"top of the mind awareness\"​ and Brand Recognition for clients in every city they locate. We are aware of the critical nuances and subtleties that help our Client\'s to attain a successful real estate platform. You have to know what makes a location successful, to be able to replicate success consistently.I have specialized in restaurant and hotel real estate for 20+ years. I know what it takes to give my Client\'s a leading edge, from a real estate perspective. I know that a good location starts from research that we conduct, to find out what drives your business and what separates YOU from \"The Herd\"​. Strategy based decision making ALWAYS outperforms opportunistic \"best guessing\"​ decisions. That more than anything, helps create the Alpha Brands in any Industry. If you are looking to infill key markets, we can find you locations that serve to strengthen your Brand Perception and help each store achieve higher average unit volumes.Great locations create that first impression which drives your Brand Perception in the Marketplace!\"The Hospitality Group\" Equity Inc, Columbus, Ohio.
