Chad Taylor, Director of Marketing & Guest Experience @ Lake Mead Mohave Adventures

This episode of The Best Dam Podcast features, Chad Taylor, Director of Marketing at Guest Experience, Inc.

WHAT WE CHATTED ABOUT


Traditional media may tell us that Lake Mead has dried up and now all we see are boat wrecks and dead bodies. We know that is not true and we’ll hear it from the mouth of a concessionaire that is happy to share with all his guests and our listeners about all the great activity happening on Lake Mead and the Colorado River. 

  • We’ll learn about the evolution of Forever Resorts to Guest Services (GS) and the long and important history GSI has had in our Nation. 
  • How GS have mastered balancing the business side of tourism and the respectful approach to protecting our National Parks. 
  • The positive nature of working with a government entity and the contract for services that provide a layer of protection to business owners.

Chad shares some of his best practices in the realm of marketing and how streamlining those skills have provided him and his team the ability to use technology to improve their bottom line. 

Chad also makes a big announcement on the show --- With the approval of the National Park Service the night before, he is able to share an excellent way to educate us all on the activities of Lake Mead at this time.

We will get a little personal and hear about the special relationship between Chad and his father, Rod Taylor. Doing business on the water just seems to run in their blood.

Chad is also the definition of the “entrepreneur”, and he gives a little insight into a couple of his other companies; namely Mentor Empire and ETA. Listen and learn more about his amazing new recording studio. Check out the images here.

“Conversation is at the core of creativity,” says Chad and he will remind us of the importance of human connection. He is loving the opportunity to share others’ stories and to help us remember to listen and learn. One of his favorite quotes is, “That which I do not know, could change everything.”
