Bob Burke began his career in the hospitality industry as a hotelier in New York. He moved to Miami where he both managed and marketed two deluxe hotels in Coral Gables and Coconut Grove. In 1984 he went solo in order to pursue a career which would allow him to share the knowledge he acquired as a hotel marketer with others in the hospitality, travel and tourism industries. Initially teaming up with the original Pan American Airways, he was able to manage and massage their vast databases and turn them into effective distribution channels for industry suppliers. Bob pioneered fax broadcasting in the travel industry changing forever the way suppliers do business. Faxing evolved to email broadcasting and databases expanded from travel agents to other industry segments, including meeting planners/incentive buyers, etc. and ultimately to consumers.
