Announcements and Press Releases, 2009

December 17, 2009 - Bay Tree Holiday Hours From all of the staff here at BayTreeSolutions.com, we wish our clients and customers a Happy Holidays! Our office will be closed from 12:30pm Thursday, December 24th, reopening at 9am Monday, December 28th. During New Year's we will be closed from 4:00pm Thursday, December 31st, to 9:00am Monday, January 4, 2009. Our email and phone lines will be monitored throughout the holidays, solely for new sale or rental offers. At the bottom of this page, you'll see our first announcement of 2009. (For those of you who haven't yet, it deserves a quick read.) In it, we committed to numerous improvements, designed to offer you a superior timeshare resale experience. During the course of the year, economic turmoil in the U.S. and abroad threatened to side-line our plans. Though, in spite of the tumultuous economy, and new challenges to the growth of timeshare resales, we are proud to say that: Every single promise was kept, and that our goals for 2009 were realized just slightly ahead of schedule! Next year, expect even greater things... Bay Tree Solutions is the face of timeshare resale today, and we will continue to promote our client's properties with even more advanced tools, and even better service, throughout the coming year! October 24, 2009 - Timeshare Questions Answered At Bay Tree, we're constantly working on increasing conversions: turning more site visitors into timeshare buyers and renters for our client's properties. Now, we're offering an 'Ask the Experts' forum, where users can ask timeshare-related questions, and have them answered by our marketing staff. This valuable tool provides a way to connect with timeshare shoppers, and answer any questions holding them back from making an offer. Visit our <a href="../../timeshare_owner_resources" target="_self">Timeshare Answers</a> section today, located on the Timeshare Owner Info page. September 21, 2009 - Now Reviewing: Your Resort As part of our ongoing marketing efforts, Bay Tree Solutions is highlighting clients' timeshares with in-depth reviews on our corporate blog. This process involves extensive research of the resort, and analysis of its unique attributes on the resale market. <a href="http://helptimeshare.com/rss" target="_self">Subscribe to our blog now</a>, to stay updated. When your resort is reviewed, add any comments you feel would be relevant to a buyer/renter of your timeshare. This format will expose your property to an even wider audience, while allowing us to present a convincing and effective argument on your behalf!

May 28, 2009 - Version 2.0 of Bay Tree Solutions' Website Coming Soon! After several months of development, our all-new website is scheduled to go live on June 8, 2009. The new site will feature a redesigned property search, fresh new content, and an exciting new look! This robust custom built platform will continue our business model of providing the latest and best marketing available for your timeshare property. May 11, 2009 - Crown Park Resort joins Holiday Inn Club Vacations One of our most popular Gatlinburg properties, Crown Park Resort, is now part of <a href="http://www.orangelake.com/">Holiday Inn Club Vacations!</a> Owners will now be able to exchange to other club resorts, like the every-popular <a href="../../resorts/213-Holiday-Inn-Club-Vacations-at-Orange-Lake-Resort" target="_self">Orange Lake Resort</a> in Orlando, FL, or use their points toward nightly stays at Holiday Inn hotels. These new benefits will surely drive up resale prices, so prospective buyers are urged to make an offer now! February 18, 2009 - What a Recession Could Mean for Timeshare Resale From our perspective, the single largest obstacle for the timeshare resale industry is the continued development of new and expanded properties. With timeshare developers more than willing to spend 30% of the purchase price (or more) on marketing, prospective buyers are easily lured to resorts that happen to be selling now, instead of selecting the vacation ownership that best fits their lifestyle, as the resale market allows. Today's financial situation is dire for many resort developers, and some are even appealing for a government bail-out. Under these conditions, resort projects are put on hold, marketing budgets are slashed, and the timeshare resale industry's fiercest competition is, at least temporarily, on hiatus. One thing most economists can actually agree on is that people will still take vacations; that people need vacations now more than ever! For those families and individuals that decide this year that timeshare is right for them, that it makes economic sense, and fits their lifestyle, the resale market will open its arms wide to greet them with wider selection, superior prices, and a decidedly low-pressure approach that makes sense. Not using your timeshare this year? Give it to a friend and let them experience a timeshare vacation, or rent it as a hotel alternative. Encourage those you know that now is the time to get involved with timeshare ownership! January 3, 2009 - More Services, More Content, More Offers for 2009 We want to thank all the owners who have used our services to date! Your support and confidence are integral to our continued growth and success. During 2009, we pledge to bring you more - more sale & rental offers, more services, more content, and more of what you want in a resale company! Some of our plans for the year include starting a relevant <a href="http://helptimeshare.com" target="_blank"></a>timeshare blog to drive traffic to the site, increased search engine optimization for the search terms that get you offers, and expanded financing options for buyers. We look forward to a successful & record-breaking new year! 2009-07-30T12:50:18Z 12 new in 2009 Announcements and Press Releases, 2009
