WW Hospitality Marketing

What WW Hospitality Marketing does

WW Hospitality Marketing is a Philadelphia-based, privately held full-service marketing agency founded in 2011 that specializes exclusively in the hospitality industry. The firm delivers an integrated suite of services — brand strategy, public relations, graphic and digital design, photography, and social media management — intended to replace the need for clients to engage multiple specialized agencies. It is led by Principal and CEO Candice Kochenour, who the company states has over two decades of hospitality industry experience, supported by a small core team of approximately 1–10 full-time staff supplemented by freelance designers and account managers.

The agency's client base spans hotels (including brand families such as Marriott, Hilton, IHG, Wyndham, Choice, and Radisson flags), golf courses, restaurants, retail businesses, nightclubs, catering facilities, realtors, and non-profit organizations. Geographic reach is claimed nationwide across the United States from a single Philadelphia office at 1628 John F Kennedy Boulevard. The firm operates a direct B2B sales motion via a Project Request Form on its website, and generates revenue through project-based fees and retainer arrangements with multi-year contract cadence.

WW has no proprietary technology platform and does not disclose any AI/ML capabilities; its offering is purely human-delivered creative and strategic services. In February 2026 the company announced three internal leadership promotions (Tatiana Gonzales to VP of Marketing, Kate Schwarz to Director of Client Services & Social Media Strategy, and Samantha Peck to Senior Brand Strategist), reinforcing its women-led management structure. There are no disclosed funding rounds, parent company, acquisitions, or external investors.

Core offering

WW Hospitality Marketing is a Philadelphia-based full-service marketing agency that provides integrated marketing services—brand strategy, public relations, graphic and digital design, photography, and social media management—exclusively for hospitality businesses including hotels, golf courses, restaurants, retail businesses, nightclubs, catering facilities, realtors, and non-profit organizations. Rather than specializing in a single marketing discipline, the agency consolidates strategy, creative, digital, social, and PR under one provider so clients do not have to engage multiple agencies.

Product overview

WW Hospitality Marketing is a Philadelphia-based full-service marketing agency offering a unified suite of services rather than a modular software product. Their core offerings include Brand Strategy, Public Relations, Graphic and Digital Design, Photography, and Social Media Management—all designed for the hospitality industry. Rather than a platform-plus-modules architecture, they provide integrated marketing services where clients receive a comprehensive range of capabilities from a single provider, eliminating the need to engage multiple agencies for different campaign components.
