It has been almost one full year since Phase II of Roger Smith Hotels’ on-line presence began. I say Phase II because Phase I started about three years ago with Roger Smith News, a video based website used to broadcast and share the inner community that makes Roger Smith special. Now that this type of communication has a name, social media, we find ourselves right in the middle of the movement.  As we look back over the last few months it is obvious how important all of our new friends and relationships have been in shaping our future. 

For the many of you who already know us and embrace our culture, there is a clear understanding that our satisfaction is in knowing you! We are in the people business ~ Roger Smith is not a person – Roger Smith is a community – we look to expand community everyday with new connections, new clients and most importantly new friends. 

In the new social internet it is important to engage in the discussion of social media in such a way that we can help others build and share information. We are excited to engage with people in the dialog and embrace the opportunity to interact face to face. 

We are excited to be part of the Social Internet and hope to learn more about others who have similar experiences. Please feel free to reach out through any of our social media platforms.  Thanks to everyone who has helped build the Roger Smith Community. Please Share, Comment and Engage!

In the links below you will find great blog posts, editorial articles and even a couple of thoughtful videos published by our guests ( who we like to call friends ). Enjoy.
