Tammy brings 25 years of hands-on Sales and Marketing experience in sales leadership roles, having launched her career with Hilton Hotels and working in the trenches of this fast paced and competitive industry, for over a decade. Her pioneering spirit and entrepreneurial drive inspired Tammy to launch Gillis, a hospitality consulting and training company in 2014 because she saw a gap in how sales people were being onboarded into the industry and felt they were not being set up for success. She has a passion for improving not only the skill set but also the mindset of sales professionals.

Tammy and her team have developed a proprietary Dynamic Sales Solution program for focused-service hotels operating without a sales team and has disrupted the traditional hotel sales model. By developing and executing a sustainable and profitable sales strategy on their behalf, this innovative and very successful program helps hotels compete more proactively in their local market to achieve long lasting results.

As a visionary, innovator and trainer, you will find Tammy to be a professional, engaging and inspiring speaker. Tammy’s practical and genuine approach helps both her clients and workshop attendees break ineffective sales behaviors to become trusted advisors with a client centric approach to selling that drives results and differentiates them from the competition. Her presentations and workshops have been very well received by the attendees of: Best Western Hotels & Resorts Convention, Choice Hotels Canada Convention, Choice Hotels International Convention, GBTA Canada Conference, Hotel Association of Canada (HAC) and Travelodge Canada.

Some of Our Clients

Proudly Serving Clients throughout US & Canada

"As a management company with 4 smaller hotels in busy transient markets, we have struggled to keep our sales and marketing costs relative to the size of our hotel.  The cost and time invested in attracting, training, and retaining good salespeople with the current job climate can be not only daunting but frustrating with turnover.  With varying demand in the market, a sales manager needs to recognize when to take the business, and when to say no to it.  The right rate, at the right time!

We have solved all these problems through turning this demanding role in 3 of our hotels over to Gillis Sales.

Gillis is a trusted, credible partner who has supplied me with experienced professionals who know the fastest route to the business I need.  This has become our most effective resource, and I 100% recommend the Gillis solution to my colleagues."
Patti Barker -

Vice President of Hospitality, Metropolitan Hospitality Management

We have the pleasure of working with Gillis Sales, and couldn’t be happier with the results. Their expertise in the hospitality industry, combined with their innovative sales strategies, have delivered exceptional revenue growth for our property. I highly recommend Gillis Sales to any hotel looking to boost their sales and increase their bottom line. Their commitment to excellence and personalized approach make them a valuable partner in the competitive world of hotel sales.

"The math is simple: Gillis equals heads-in-beds!

The sales pro's at Gillis have been instrumental in building occupancy at Motel 6 and Studio 6 hotels in Canada over the past several years.  Working collaboratively with owners and managers, Gillis takes the time required to find and convert prospects to guests.  Gillis provides a best-in-class solution for hotels that don't have a dedicated, well-trained sales team."

“We had the good fortune of engaging Gillis after years of managing our sales effort inhouse. They came highly recommended through brand leadership and seasoned sales professionals – and they haven’t disappointed. Despite only a few months into our relationship, they have had an immediate impact on our hotels and key account relationships. The Gillis team has already established themselves as one of our most valued and trusted advisors and partners. They have always displayed the professionalism, passion and accountability demanded by their profession. The Gillis team is well prepared, highly engaged and goal orientated. To this end, they have solidified accounts, delivered new bookings and helped to diversify our business drivers. As a result, they have earned the deep respect and trust of our organization. I would not hesitate to recommend Gillis for any organization that requires the highest levels of sales performance, execution and professionalism.”

“Tammy Gillis and her organization have been nothing short of amazing! We have seen an approximate ROI of 10x at our BW PLUS hotel as well as a ROI of 4-5x at our BW hotel. The sales team is so dedicated, passionate and driven to deliver revenue to hotels. I just wish we started sooner with Gillis!”
