WELCOME VENDORS

Since 1993, The Rooms Chronicle … print edition has been providing hotel managers with powerful, hands-on information to help improve the quality, efficiency, and profits of their hotels. Now this terrific archive of educational information is available on this interactive web site.

• Nowhere else on the web will surfers find such a terrific source of helpful information for operating a hotel.
• Nowhere else will hotel managers find this nuts and bolts educational material to help staff refine their efforts.

Now, through TRC … online, we offer a revolutionary way for vendors to meet their customers.

FREE LINK

Of course you should link with us — why not? It’s free! There is absolutely no charge to link your web site to TRC … online. Just provide us with your url address, email, or phone number and you will be added to our vendor showroom.

AND, if you would like to contribute an educational article, we’ll make it available to guests of the site. Again, no charge. This is a terrific way to reach our viewers! You write an article about your area of expertise (for instance "The differences between coconut oil and lemon oil in furniture polish"), add your company name and contact information at the bottom of the article, and we put it on the site for free!

INTEGRAL POSTING

But here’s the really revolutionary part — if you want to be involved in an interactive way with visitors to TRC … online, you may "Pay to Post and then Play for Free." Pay to Post — When you purchase an Integral Posting, TRC will integrate your product list and your areas of expertise into our searchable data base. For example, when a viewer searches for "vacuuming" they will find articles we’ve written about vacuuming, educational information about vacuum cleaners that you have provided us, and a hyperlink to your web site or email. This is unparalleled access to precisely targeted customers.

Play for Free — After establishing your Integral Posting, you may "play" for free.

Here’s how:

1. Participate in answering questions from viewers. When TRC gets a question about your field, we’ll direct them to our Integral Partners. What better way to meet new prospects?

2. Join our expert panel discussions. TRC will be hosting online seminars on topics of interest to our viewers. Remember — most hotel rooms management people never attend real-life conventions. This will be their opportunity to participate. And you should be the expert on the panel!

3. Inquire about viewer satisfaction with your products. Where else can you get such targeted feedback from customers? TRC … online aims to bring you close to your buyers in a way not possible in any other venue.

4. Provide TRC … online with customer reviews of your product(s). For instance, perhaps one of your grateful customers has written an evaluation of how well the product functions at their hotel. If it contains real product review information, we’ll put it up on the site. (Limit two reviews per product, maximum ten per company.)

5. Ask the viewers a question. Perhaps you are thinking of a change in your product line? Give us the question, we’ll post it for viewer feedback.

6. Offer promotional gifts. TRC … online will be sponsoring online contests and we’ll gratefully accept your logo items as give-away prizes. Or, why not create a special offer to entice TRC viewers to your web site?

7. Be featured in our vendor spotlight free for one month.

8. And, of course, receive a FREE subscription to TRC … print edition!
