RCI TV Goes Public – Revolutionary Network Now Live And Interactive To All Consumers On RCI.com

World’s largest company continues to expand RCI TV to promote affiliated resorts and the vacation ownership industry

RCI, the global leader in and one of the Wyndham Worldwide family of companies (NYSE: WYN), today announced that RCI TV, its innovative web-based television network that until now was exclusive for RCI subscribing members, is live and available to all consumers on RCI.com. This new accessibility allows the general public to view educational and entertaining “Resort Showcase” and “Destination” channels along with other information dedicated to increasing timeshare industry awareness and promoting the benefits of vacation ownership. Through the Resort Showcase channel, prospective purchasers can also link directly to selected developers’ websites for more information or a chance to visit resorts.

In coordination with these efforts, RCI has also signed a deal with Resort & Residence TV, a new network that reaches millions of households on DirectTV through its travel, lifestyle and real estate programs. Over the next six months, RCI will run 1,200 TV advertisements that are interactive and allow Resort & Residence viewers to navigate from the ad to an interactive screen where they can use their remote controls to watch videos, request more information or obtain a promotional code which they can use on RCI.com to enter a competition to win a free vacation.

RCI will also run an ad on the CBS Super Screen in New York’s Times Square from December 1, 2009, through January 1, 2010, as part of its outreach efforts.

“The overwhelming response to RCI TV from our members and affiliates continues to push us to expand this unique network that is truly revolutionizing the vacation planning experience,” said Geoff Ballotti, CEO, RCI. “We believe the robust content we’re able to provide our members through RCI.com – which has been averaging at least 3 million visits a month – alongside specially created channels which take an entertaining look at the timeshare industry will also benefit the general public. We’re excited about the benefits that both the public accessibility to RCI TV as well as the exposure through Resort & Residence Television will bring to the industry and we’ll continue working to bring innovative solutions to our members, affiliates and all consumers.”

RCI subscribing members will notice enhancements to RCI TV as well. RCI TV is now one of the primary navigation tabs on RCI.com granting members quick and simple access from anywhere on the site. The system now also offers more robust navigation that allows users to more easily select and view channel, category and video quality options to aid streaming. Another enhancement is the integration of the RCI online resort directory with RCI TV. From the RCI resort videos located within the Resort Showcase channel, members will have the option to navigate from the resort video to obtain more resort information along with the Search Availability function which links visitors straight to RCI’s patent-pending search pages, returning all available vacation options for that resort for members to review.

$21 Million Resort Opened At Seven Mile Beach

Premier David Bartlett today officially opened the $21 million Seven Mile Beach calling the development another example of confidence in the Tasmanian economy.

“Tasmania was recently nominated by CommSec as the strongest economy in the nation. Tourism is part of our success story.

“This multi-million dollar investment by Wyndham resorts in Tasmania will open up our state to a whole new market of holiday owners.

“Evidence shows holiday ownership resorts attract people who tend to stay longer and explore more, which means a greater flow on to local businesses and injection into the economy,” Mr Bartlett said.

is part of , and the largest vacation ownership company in Asia Pacific. Wyndham Vacation Ownership has 43 000 owners and 19 ownership resorts in Australia, New Zealand and Fiji, and is part of a worldwide network of 145 resorts that service 800 000 owners in , the Caribbean and .

The resort at Seven Mile Beach employs 35 Tasmanians. It has a total of 61 rooms, including 11 different room types. There is also a restaurant, bar, pool, outdoor spa, tennis court, playground, games room, gym, sauna and BBQ facilities.

“This is a development that reflects an authentic Tasmanian experience. Particularly welcome are the efforts that have gone into minimising the impact of the resort on the local environment,” Mr Bartlett said.

Inspired by the Wyndham Green initiative, an onsite horticulturalist has set up a program to restore the native habitat to the original ecosystem that would have characterised the site prior to colonial inhabitation.

“Tourism as an industry directly and indirectly supports about 11.2 per cent of Tasmania’s total employment which is nearly 3 per cent higher than the national average.

“Quality developments like this one at Seven Mile Beach will encourage even greater growth of this important sector.

“Since 2006 the State Government has boosted tourism funding by $32 million – this includes an additional $4 million announced recently.

“This Government has overseen a period of exceptional tourism growth.

“We will continue to support the tourism industry and build on the strong base that has been established under Labor,” Mr Bartlett said.

In addition to the core business of financial servicing, Equiant is most creative when it comes to finding ways to use its communications link with owners and members as a marketing channel. Frank has a strong affinity for technology and a keen business sense for the application of emerging products. An added bonus is his past leadership position at , which helps him provide us with a unique industry perspective.”

“We have assembled a best-in-class group of professionals to serve as our Advisory Partners,” says Jim Danz. “Gordon Bloeser is our ‘go-to’ expert when it comes to sorting through the underwriting criteria that was used to structure loan originations for distressed companies in the timeshare sector.  He is also very adept at assisting us with mortgage portfolio valuations.  His intimate knowledge of the loan side of the business gives Trident an edge in our business development activities with banks and specialized lenders.”

“Gladiators Ready” – The FORUM Commences In London, 9-10 December

November 24, 2009 by Perspective Magazine: Timeshare & Fractional News & Reviews · Comments Off 

December will see the highly anticipated FORUM Conference take place in London hosted by Generator Systems and Perspective Magazine.

Taking on the responsibility to ensure that the vacation ownership industry in Europe had an opportunity to meet, network and discuss the ups and downs of the past year, the two well know suppliers to the industry globally have taken a far from typical approach which has sparked intrigue amongst industry professionals.

Announced as a not for profit event with any excess proceeds going to charity, the FORUM Conference team set about to arrange almost no promotion of the event for all but the last six weeks prior to the event itself, furthermore, delegate registration was not opened until just five weeks before which in itself created an amount of hype and interest.

Now with less than a month to go, the conference schedule and its array of speakers and panellists have been announced and industry professionals have spent the last couple of weeks rushing to confirm one or more of just 200 tickets.

Unlike most conferences, The FORUM has no keynote speakers delivering in-depth presentations on their specialist subjects. Instead, with the exception of some brief 15 minute inspirational stories, all other sessions based around panels of experts with the emphasis of getting straight down to business and involving the 200 strong audience to freely enter into a debate about each topic at hand.

This format aims to cover more topics in the time allotted and as well as the chosen topics it will give the chance for the attendees to raise and discuss topics specifically important to them adding value to both the conference and their experience at the event – in fact there’s even one session planned for near the end of the second day called “Gloves Off” where there are no panellists and no set topics, just another change for delegates to revisit the main topics of the past couple of days and ask further questions of previous panellists or cover newer topics that may have arisen as a spin off to other sessions.

With unofficial references to likening this conference to the Coliseums of Rome and a Gladiatorial affair, The FORUM has attracted more than 25 industry experts who will give up their time to contribute to the event, sharing experiences, successes, failures and ideas with all who attend. Spanning all aspects of the shared ownership industry this innovative event will draw from veterans and exciting newcomers alike from around the world with Europe, , Asia, South Africa, Mexico and Canada all represented during panel sessions.

The difficulties of the past year will be addressed initially, but then the conference will look forward to new opportunities and the best ways to prepare for 2010 covering legal and financial hurdles, the need to adapt and the desire for change, new sales and marketing techniques and most importantly try to answer and suggest solutions to questions from the interactive audience of industry professionals which would undoubtedly touch upon consumer confidence, credibility, resales, is fractional ownership the new timeshare, unlawful practises of discount membership clubs (not timeshare) and much more.

Has the credit crunch made the industry realise its vulnerability? Has it inspired entrepreneurial individuals to help reinvent the wheel and take notice of consumer needs and desires when adapting their product ranges? Will we see a new reinvigorated, more accepted industry in 2010? Or will new legislation cripple us all?
