Rocky Mountain Vacation Rentals Doubles Business the 'Old-fashioned' Way

April 26, 2010 - PRLog -- Service is the defining quality of Rocky Mountain Vacation Rentals, and according to its owner, Tommy Z. Hoffman, is “the hallmark that contributed to triple digit sales percent increases in the last six months.” The increase in business occurred during a time when most wholesalers experienced flat business rates or decreases in sales. Rocky Mountain Vacation Rentals, located in Vail, recently reported triple digit sales growth as well as intentions to expand into 36 vacation locations including Telluride and Steamboat Springs for the upcoming 2011 ski season.
   
Included in Rocky Mountain Vacation Rentals’ list of offerings are full concierge services, group travel specialists, and local vacation specialists who know the markets they represent. Rocky Mountain Vacation Rentals currently provides accommodations in Vail, Beaver Creek, Aspen, Snowmass, Copper Mountain, Breckenridge, and Keystone ski resorts. The local agents representing these vacation areas have committed themselves to sharing their passion for the Rocky Mountains and providing travelers with successful vacations. “You know it’s been a successful vacation when you want to do it again because it gave you a deep satisfaction, and you experienced good times with friends and family!” remarked Alana Hanks, Sales Manager for Rocky Mountain Vacation Rentals and a Vail Valley local.
   
The high level of service provided by Rocky Mountain Vacation Rentals parallels the Vail Business Forums’ goal of “Driving Short-Term Sales While Building the Long-Term Vail Brand”. They have committed to upholding the Vail brand, and intend to continue the practice within the vacation rental industry and each local market they represent. “By providing the highest level of guest services, we have built our business the old-fashioned way- with quality service and strong customer relationships, while also taking advantage of innovative travel technologies,” stated Hoffman.    
   
Although Rocky Mountain Vacation Rentals is an online focused business, their staff takes extra measures to ensure that each different customer is provided with accommodations that fit their needs. “We help our guests find lodging whether they are bringing the family, seeking a romantic getaway, attending an event, have disabilities, or even if they want to bring their pet with them,” stated Cali Adkisson, Group Sales Specialist at Rocky Mountain Vacation Rentals.
   
With online shopping becoming a growing trend, Rocky Mountain Vacation Rentals has built a strong foundation with quality service, while also maintaining a website that keeps up with a younger generation. According to the “Consumer Response to Travel Site Performance”, a PhoCusWright whitepaper, 57 percent of online shoppers abandon a site after three seconds or less. “Our quality service includes having a fast and functional website,” stated Hoffman. The whitepaper also outlines the studies’ results in travel consumer trends in relation to travel website performance.
   
Rocky Mountain Vacation Rentals specializes in offering private homes, condos, lodges, and fractional properties where guests can take advantage of hundreds of amenities such as fully equipped kitchens, private hot tubs, grills, and decks; all while located in or near the destination of their choice including ski, beach, and urban locales. The company announced this week its intentions to seek outside capital to assist with their expansion into 36 new market locations.
