Have you Answered the Call for Mobile?
May, 2009
E-site Marketing and SynXis mobile solutions offer a simple approach
SOUTHLAKE, Texas, 28 May - With so much being written recently about mobile technology it is not difficult to hear the "call for mobile." What might be more difficult is determining exactly how and when to answer. With marketing budgets already in place, and in many cases slashed for 2009, if a mobile presence was not already in the plan, will you have to wait until next year? Like an online booking engine and Website before it, you don't want to be the last hotel on the block to "go mobile." Projections from the International Telecommunications Union estimated over 4 billion mobile subscribers at the end of 2008 representing over 61percent of the world's population.
E-site Marketing, a Sabre Holdings company and the Internet marketing arm of SynXis, has introduced its Mobile Website solution that gives hotel properties and chains a simple and affordable way to capture the growing number of consumers using mobile devices.

Publish Once, Distribute to Many
May, 2009
Customers of E-Site Marketing and SynXis benefit from a content management tool that goes beyond Website into social media
SOUTHLAKE, Texas 14 May - Remember when "channel management" meant you only had rates and availability to manage across multiple channels? Now more and more hoteliers face the challenge of also managing the distribution of marketing content to an expanding number of channels, including the rapidly growing social media channel. The Content Management Tool (CMT), developed by E-site Marketing (a Sabre Holdings company) and available to all Sabre hospitality businesses, including SynXis, provides a one-stop control center where hotel marketers can manage Website content and, at the same time, distribute marketing communications to multiple channels, thus "publishing once, distributing to many." In the same way hoteliers strive for rate parity, this tool ensures "content parity."
