Are there any advantages to belonging to a regional B&B association? From everything I read, it seems like just so much more hype and that they like the numerous B&B listings and directories on the Web, a lot of promises but no delivery.
The reason I ask is that we are celebrating our 1-year anniversary and now qualify to join the one for our area of Texas. I really can't see the benefit. The pat answer I get is "Well, you can display our logo on your advertising material and website and people will know that you are a certified, quality B&B. Excuse me? Joe Average Guest does not know or care about your association. For me, it would have very little bearing on my decision to stay at one B&B over the other. Thoughts?
