Q:How do Best Western members find out about and stay up to date on Best Western's marketing programs and other services?
A:  All new members attend an orientation at Best Western International, Inc. headquarters in Phoenix, Arizona. This provides an excellent opportunity to meet key staff members and get a first look at the broad array of services available. As changes and enhancements are made to Best Western's marketing, sales, education and supply programs, members stay up to date through a members-only website called, mybestwestern.com.
