Employee Milestones
IMIC Hotels is proud to congratulate Teri Britt on her 25th anniversary with the company!
Teri is a seasoned general manager with hospitality skills, leadership skills and people skills to match. She started with IMIC in 1996 as a GSR at Pawley’s/Litchfield Hampton Inn, quickly moving to guest service manager, then to General Manager and in 2013, transferred to Georgetown Hampton Inn as their General Manager.
The Georgetown Marina Hampton Inn will turn 25 years old in May 2022 and in 2021 Teri lead the hotel and team to its best room revenue year in its history.
Teri’s average team member tenure is over 10 years, with several team members that have been with the hotel for over 20 years. Her service, quality and overall experience scores are all well-above the Hampton brand average and she is currently ranked #1 in her STR competitive comp set (consecutively every month for at least the last 15+ years).
When Teri is not working, you can find her as a patron in many of the businesses in Georgetown (a community where she was born and raised----with deep roots all over town). She volunteers additional time with organizations such as Georgetown Tax advisory committee as well as many others.
Teri’s primary focus is being a proud mother of a grown son, Jeremey and devoted wife to her husband, Brian.
Congratulations Teri, we appreciate all you do and your leadership in our company!
