Top Talent Flocks to EZ Yield
.
December 2003 - Gary Lobo has become the Vice President of Sales and Marketing for EZ Yield.com, one of the leading providers of online yield management tools for the hotel industry.  Among his chief responsibilities will be the continued growth of the U.S. market, and bringing the European market from its infancy.   Gary will also be responsible for bringing to market the latest cutting edge web-based products he believes "will revolutionize the way hotels manage their inventory". Henry Danish, co-founder and CEO of EZ Yield.com, Inc., has found Gary to be a natural fit to our company. "Gary brings a strong knowledge of the hotel industry, an industry-leading understanding of the web-based travel industry, and a committment to customer service that parallels EZ Yield.com's common goals and values."

As a hotelier in the Orlando market, Gary found it complicated and very time-consuming to deal with and update more than 40 website extranets when he needed to make a rate and/or inventory change to ALL of his website extranets.  Gary found out about EZ Yield.com, a website where he could yield all of his 40 website extranets, simultaneously, in just minutes, on one simple screen.  He also found out he could view his current rates and inventory with each website by producing a one-minute "Companion" report - this report alone normally would took at least one hour each time he wanted to produce it manually.

"EZ Yield allowed my hotel to yield multiple date ranges accurately, in a minute or less, assuring my hotel's rate parity was in check, and gave me, as General Manager, peace of mind that every website I worked with was yielded and completely updated." He continued and said, "The product delivered hundreds of extra room nights per month, setup cost was minimal, and currently costs the hotel less than a room night per month.  Based on the additional revenues it drove to the hotel, and the operational problems it eliminated,  EZ Yield was quickly viewed as a revenue driver, rather than an expense."

Lobo says, "I found myself becoming EZ Yield's biggest advocate and it was only a matter of time before I sat down with the founders and struck up a deal."

Edward St. Onge, co-founder and President of EZ Yield.com, Inc. echoes his partner, and says, "Gary will become one of the driving forces of EZ Yield.com, and we look forward to how his creativity, ideas, sales knowledge, and customer service skills will positively impact our current and future customers, as well as our product line.
