Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. hat seine Bilanz für 2017 vorgelegt - also der Mutterkonzern von Royal Caribbean International, Celebrity Cruises und Azamara Club Cruises. Aber keine Sorge, die Podcast-Episode wird keine Bilanz-Analyse. Anhand der Zahlen lassen sich die Dimensionen des zweitgrößten Kreuzfahrt-Konzerns der Welt recht gut erfassen. Im Podcast greife ich ein paar besonders spannende Zahlen heraus und erläutere Zusammenhänge: Passagierzahlen, Umsätze und Kosten, Treibstoff-Verbrauch, überraschende Risiko-Faktoren wie Wechselkursschwankungen und die finanziellen Dimensionen dabei. Und: Es ist eine eher ungewöhnliche Podcast-Episode in dieser Woche. Denn Jerome ist krank, deshalb bestreitet Franz Neumeier den Podcast ausnahmsweise allein.

Kaum jemals wurden in einem Jahr so vielen neue Kreuzfahrtschiffe in Dienst gestellt, wie für 2018 geplant. Mindestens 18 Schiffe sollen es werden, von kleinen Expeditionsschiffen bis hin zum größten Kreuzfahrtschiff der Welt. In dieser Podcast-Episode werfen wir einen genaueren Blick auf das, was da 2018 kommt und versuchen, Trends ausfindig zu machen. Was kommt 2018? Sieben Expeditionsschiffe von Australis, Hurtigruten, Mystic Cruises, Lindblad Expeditions, Scenic und zwei von Ponant. Zwei Ultraluxus-Schiffe von Seabourn und Viking. Acht Kreuzfahrtschiffe im Volumen- und Premium-Markt von AIDA (das erste LNG-getriebene Kreuzfahrtschiff), Carnival Cruise Line, Royal Caribbean International, TUI Cruises, MSC, Norwegian Cruise Line, Celebrity Cruises und Holland America Line. Und ein Segel-Kreuzfahrtschiff von Star Clippers. Außerdem übernimmt Azamara Club Cruises die Adonia von P&O Cruises als dann drittes Schiff der Flotte. Die Costa Classica wechselt als Grand Classica zu Bahamas Paradise Cruise Line. Und die bisherige Mein Schiff 1 wird zur Marella Explorer. Zusammen schaffen diese 18 Schiffe eine zusätzliche Betten-Kapazität von rund 38.000.

Show Highlights: Everyone's trying to do something and nothing happens until something gets sold. @BruceTurkelStop talking about yourself, start talking about your audience. @BruceTurkelThe biggest problem is that people jump to “ready, aim, fire” before they figure out why they matter. @BruceTurkelInstead of trying to be unique, try to find your POD: point of difference and point of distinction. @BruceTurkelAim not to be perfect or unique but different and distinct. @BruceTurkelDoing all the things that we have to do keeps us from doing the things we need to do. @BruceTurkelWho does your customer want to be? @BruceTurkelDon't try to sell your customer what they're buying. Sell them who they will be AFTER they've purchased your product. @BruceTurkelA good brand makes you feel good; a great brand makes you feel good about you. @BruceTurkelDon't think just about what you do but how what you do exists in the context of who your customer is and why they matter. @BruceTurkel Click here for more information about Bruce and to grab your own copy of All About Them.
