At Ease! Timeshare Webinar Invites Consumers to Boot Camp

SEATTLE — Holiday Resales, a division of Holiday Group, is preparing for its fourth virtual seminar, “Timeshare Boot Camp 101,” which promises to get timeshare consumers in shape by training participants on the basics of timeshare. Push-ups are optional.The seminar will take place at 5:30 p.m. PDT on Thursday, September 27, 2007. Participation will be open to the public. Please visit here for information on registration.
The Timeshare Boot Camp 101 webinar will feature vacation lifestyle expert and writer, Lisa Ann Schreier. “If you’ve shied away from timeshare sales pitches, or have ever wondered why someone is selling their timeshare on eBay for five dollars, this webinar is for you,” said Schreier, author of “Timeshare Vacations For Dummies.”
Web seminars, popularly referred to as webinars, are a convenient alternative to traditional seminars, allowing people to participate via their personal computers from work or in the comfort of their homes. Attendees can both see and hear the seminar as it’s in progress, and can interact with questions or comments of their own.

“This seminar isn’t about sales hype,” Schreier said. “We’re not pushing timeshare on anyone, but I will be giving consumers the relevant information they need in order to make educated choices about timeshare. It’s just a start to what we have planned in the future to provide consumers with in-depth basic training. I’m excited about this venture.”

Holiday’s Director of Sales, Gail Bennett, will host the webinar. “This is Holiday’s fourth webinar, and our audience continues to grow,” Bennett said. “I think it’s because of the knowledge we’ve been able to give them about how timeshare works, so that it’s no longer a mystery. If people feel they’ve learned something of value, then we’ve achieved our goal and it benefits the whole industry.”

Holiday’s webinars offer real-world knowledge about timesharing in a low-pressure, consumer-friendly environment. The Timeshare Boot Camp 101 webinar will last about 30 minutes and be followed by a question and answer session.

“When I was a salesperson,” Schreier noted, “I observed salespeople inadvertently confusing consumers simply by the way they interacted with them about timeshare. After all, it was familiar territory to us. I want to clear all of that out and just talk with people in a way they can understand.”
