Timeshare News – The Timeshare Staff Magazine Creates Directory for Industry Products and Services

Orlando, FL, June 16, 2006 --(PR.com)-- The interest level for a directory of this kind was tested on a specially selected group of companies from the existing client base of the Timeshare Staff Magazine and Timeshare Staff Recruitment. Initially 10 companies took part in the test run with encouraging enquiry results of both quality and quantity. Now just three weeks on, the official launch has attracted a further 9 reservations in the first two days concluding that this will certainly be an invaluable resource for the timeshare industry.

So far categories include: Accountants, Architects & Design, Associations, Business Opportunities, Charities, Consultants, Developers, Exchange Companies, Finance Companies, Lead Generation, Legal Services, Marketing Companies, Pr & Media, Property Management, Publications, Software Products, Timeshare Training, Travel Services and Trustees & Escrow – with more to be added as required.

The force behind this directory will undoubtedly be responsible for the initial speed and growth.

Timeshare Staff Ltd, best know for its http://www.timesharestaff.com recruitment website generates more than 10,000 applications per month for jobs in timeshare, consistently converting 1 in 3.5 visitors to its site(s) into potential new / experienced employees of the industry for more than 270 resorts worldwide.

The Timeshare Staff Magazine, launched in November 2004 has become a firm favourite with more than 24,500 print and online subscribers with its colourful and independent approach to the timeshare industry worldwide. The magazine can be viewed / downloaded online at http://www.timesharestaffmagazine.com and delivered free of charge in print to any timeshare industry professional. You can also keep up to date with the latest breaking news from the industry at http://www.thetimesharenews.com.

The directory will be built comprehensively over the next six months with a print version set to be published in January 2007. For the next four months the Timeshare Staff Magazine is playing substitute and offering complimentary quarter page advertisements in each issue. Each category lists companies in the order that they purchased their listing so there is a distinct advantage in reserving your space early.

The idea, as simplistic as it is, came from the advertising and media team at Abroad Marketing Group Ltd, the parent company of Timeshare Staff Ltd and the Timeshare Staff Magazine. They found that although many products and services companies and suppliers to the timeshare industry spend time and money promoting themselves at the small number of annual timeshare conventions and advertise in some publications, there was no useful place that could give them permanent exposure apart from their own company website. This directory will provide the industry with an instant resource for all their needs, whether they need to increase their tour flow, add a spa to their resort, update / upgrade the interior design of their apartments and villas, bring in a marketing company, purchase a new resort, seek legal representation and much more – it will all be able to be found online at a click of a button, and from next year available as a comprehensive directory in print to have in the office.
