Stephanie E. Clark

Stephanie E. Clark

Stephanie Clark started her career in cost accounting and manufacturing operations — and it was leading her company's first ERP implementation that hooked her for good. Twenty years and 500+ implementations later, she's the founder of Elliott Clark Consulting (ECC), a Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central partner built around a simple belief: technology only works when the process behind it is right first.

Stephanie developed ECC's Process → Technology → Automation methodology after watching too many implementations fail for the same reason — teams jumping to technology (or now, AI) before the underlying process could support it. She holds PMP, CPIM, and CBAP certifications and has spent two decades helping manufacturers and distributors get ERP right: effective, sustainable, and built to actually hold up under automation and AI.

When she's not presenting or writing on ERP strategy, she's leading ECC's growing team of consultants, helping mid-market manufacturers and distributors move past spreadsheets and disconnected systems into ERP environments that are genuinely ready for what's next.

Dmitriy Sotnikov

Dmitriy Sotnikov

Dmitry Sotnikov is a hospitality business expert. He works with hotel owners, managers, and hotel teams at the intersection of hospitality technologies, process control, SEO promotion, and direct sales from the hotel website.

His professional focus is hotel revenue growth through check-in control, reduction of hidden losses, development of direct bookings, strengthening of the hotel website, and reducing dependence on aggregators.

Dmitry has more than 10 years of experience in the hospitality business. He entered the hotel sector through access control systems, electronic locks, and hospitality technologies. This practical background allowed him to see the hotel from the inside: how check-ins are organized, how administrators work, how owners control processes, how the guest journey is built, how bookings are made, how the website works, how additional services are sold, and how internal processes operate.

The key idea of Dmitry's talks is that hotels already have money, but part of the revenue is often lost inside their processes. An owner may see occupancy, guests, and staff work, but may not always understand where exactly the income is being lost. Dmitry shows how to identify these loss points and which tools help make hotel processes more transparent.

Main speaking topics:

Hotel revenue growth:

where a hotel loses money: check-ins, the website, and direct sales;
why guests are present, but part of the revenue does not reach the owner;
how a hotel can increase revenue without reducing guest service quality;
what prevents a hotel from earning more steadily with the same occupancy;
how an owner can see weak points in hotel operations.

Check-in control:

where real losses arise in a hotel;
how to identify unrecorded check-ins and bring order to the processes;
how to check hotel operations without conflict with staff;
which signs show that a hotel has hidden revenue losses;
how access, check-in, and revenue control are connected.

SEO promotion and the hotel website:

how to get more direct inquiries through the hotel website;
why a hotel website should be a sales tool, not just an online business card;
why a hotel website does not sell and what to do about it;
how a hotel can attract guests through its own channels;
how to strengthen the hotel website without unnecessary complexity for the owner.

Direct sales:

how to reduce dependence on aggregators;
how to return part of sales to the hotel's own channels;
how to sell additional hotel services through the website and direct communications;
how to connect the website, SEO, and administrator work into one sales system;
how to make the guest journey from search to booking clear and convenient.

Hospitality technologies and process control:

how access, check-in, the website, and hotel revenue are connected;
how access control systems help control check-ins;
which technologies help the owner see real processes inside the hotel.

Dmitry has spoken in business programs, industry events, exhibitions, business breakfasts, and professional meetings for the hospitality industry.

He participated in the business program of PIR Expo / PIR HOTEL on the topics of electronic access control systems, electronic locks, and smart hotel solutions.

He also spoke at events of the Secrets of the Hotelier project in Kazan, Khabarovsk, Mineralnye Vody, Krasnoyarsk, Vladivostok, Novosibirsk, and other cities. He participated in business programs and panel discussions for representatives of the hospitality industry.

His speaking format is practical. No complex theory and no general advice. Only specific points that directly affect hotel revenue: check-ins, the website, SEO, direct sales, additional services, guest work, and control of internal processes.

Dmitry's speaking audience includes hotel owners, managers, heads of sales departments, hospitality marketers, administrators, and specialists responsible for direct sales, occupancy, and process control.

Education - higher education. SF MAI / MATI - Russian State Technological University named after K. E. Tsiolkovsky. Specialty: Materials Science and Materials Technology, 2004.
