(TRAVPR.COM) UNITED STATES - August 17th, 2015 - weholi, the new online marketplace for timeshare owners to rent and sell their vacation weeks directly to consumers, has confirmed its sponsorship of the Sixth Annual Global Networking Expo known as the GNEX Conference. The event takes place, Feb. 2 – 5, 2016, in the Big Easy at the historic Ritz Carlton New Orleans.
“weholi is establishing a global, online vacation ownership marketplace that will introduce timeshare resorts to a whole new market of vacationers. It’s not a small undertaking. We need to align ourselves with the right partners,” says Fermin Cruz, weholi’s Vice President of Sales and Marketing, Americas. “GNEX draws industry leaders worldwide in a setting that fosters this type of collaboration. This conference presents a unique opportunity to see what’s new and what’s next in the world of timeshare, while also showcasing our latest innovations to the industry’s key decision makers.”
Swiss-based weholi made its debut in late 2014 and quickly gained traction. The intuitive and transparent online marketplace is an all-around win for timeshare owners who are renting and selling resort accommodations, including timeshare resorts, fractional ownership, and serviced condominiums. The platform brings a much-needed outlet to owners who want to present their offers directly to renters in search of excellent deals on accommodations that offer much more than just a hotel room. In doing so, weholi engages the next generation of vacation owners, offering a low-cost marketing channel that delivers new prospects to vacation properties at a fraction of the cost of traditional approaches.
“We’re delighted to welcome back our friends at weholi as a returning GNEX sponsor,” comments Paul Mattimoe, president and CEO, Perspective Group. “Delegates are always looking for innovative solutions, and weholi answers the call. It brings an excellent outlet to vacation property owners and club members who want to monetize their unused accommodations, while also promoting the benefits of timeshare to a wider audience through its highly attractive rental program.”
