LeisureLink Inc. and TimeShareWare Announce Partnership to Increase Revenues for Timeshare Companies

Exploiting an Underutilized Sales Channel

LeisureLink Inc. and TimeShareWare have announced a strategic relationship that dramatically improves the ability of timeshare companies to list their properties on major travel websites.

The partners will combine their technology to give timeshare resorts effortless access to all major consumer travel sites, providing massive electronic distribution for their properties. LeisureLink’s system will directly connect with TimeShareWare’s software platform, automatically enabling property managers to accept bookings from all major travel websites. The joint offering eliminates time intensive use of extranets to update availability and prices by automatically feeding real time data directly from TimeShareWare into the LeisureLink system.

Rental guests not only produce immediate income for the properties, but are a valuable, and often underutilized, source of leads for timeshare developers. Rental guests experience the amenities of a property without the high pressure of the more traditional “mini-vac” sales approach, and tend to be more highly qualified than a guest who is staying at the property at a deeply discounted rate.

“Our relationship with LeisureLink opens up a powerful opportunity to create new revenue and a new source of sales leads for our clients,” said Timo Jones, CEO of TimeShareWare. “LeisureLink’s long-term focus on the vacation lodging industry made them a clear choice to serve our clients,” said Jones. “Our technology gives all of our TimeShareWare clients better access to major online channels than many major hotel chains,” he continued.

“We already have a number of joint clients, and are delighted to formalize our relationship with the world leader in property management software for the timeshare industry,” said Erik Hovanec, President and CEO of LeisureLink. “Our relationship with TimeShareWare will drive an important new source of revenue for timeshare companies, as well as providing consumers with alternatives to a typical hotel stay,” said Hovanec.

Leisurelink and TimeShareWare work with timeshare properties in hundreds of locations throughout the globe.
