LODGING INTERACTIVE LAUNCHES
HOTELMASHUPS - INTERACTIVE MAPS
PARSIPPANY, NJ, May 17, 2006 - Location, location and location that is what sells hotel rooms and often at the best possible rate. Lodging Interactive, a leading hospitality Internet sales & marketing company, launched HotelMashups today. HotelMashups is an interactive mapping service for the hospitality industry. HotelMashups show potential guests where your hotel is located in proximity to what and where they want to be. No more confusing or inaccurate driving maps or general street maps. HotelMashups pinpoints your hotel and adds interactive links to local attractions and other points of interest.
“HotelMashups is a natural fit for any hotel who wants to make their website their true point of sale. The quality of your photos and content is what converts sales on your website. HotelMashups adds valuable appealing content in the form of an interactive map. Now hotels can show their exact location and their proximity to entertainment, restaurants, amusement parks, hospitals, universities and corporate offices. This rich content will increase the hotel’s conversion rates,” stated Mr. DJ Vallauri, Lodging Interactive’s Founder & President. “Hotels are right when they demand more from their hotel suppliers. Internet marketing is a dynamic technique that demands constant change. It is important to Internet hotel shoppers to see where the hotel is located and what is in the nearby area. Static maps are no longer acceptable.”
Lodging Interactive’s exciting new service, HotelMashups, utilizes the newest Google API to overlay third party content links onto a Google map that will link the hotel to whatever they want to feature in relationship to their hotel’s location. “HotelMashups provides the added information that will convert the looker to a guest.”
Lodging Interactive’s HotelMashups is a fully hosted solution that enables quick and easy deployment of the map. The service also includes ongoing updates with new and more links. The hotel just provides Lodging Interactive with a list of local destination vendors and attractions and Lodging Interactive creates an interactive map quickly and accurately. Once created the hotel simply places a link on their website to their hosted map. Lodging Interactive will also research local services, corporate offices and other value add links. Our service also includes changes and updates.
