An Unbeatable Offer on an App for Your Hotel
But Hurry, Offer Ends October 15th!


 
No Sign-Up Fee, Only $150 Per Month If You Act Now


OCTOBER 7, 2010 – There’s only one week left to take advantage of a remarkable deal on SmartstaySM, an iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch application for hotels that can be customized to represent your hotel’s unique brand.
 
Sign up by October 15, 2010, and we’ll waive the sign-up fee and reduce our monthly rate to $150*. This is a great opportunity for hotels, resorts and extended-stay residences to delve into the dynamic mobile marketplace without fear of exceeding existing marketing budgets. 
 
A recognized leader in the hotel mobile app space, Smartstay provides a gateway into a new marketing channel that allows hotels to communicate with guests like never before. Your hotel app will enable guests to effortlessly make reservations, plan their trip and manage their stay. App users can easily browse your hotel photos, videos and information and find their way around your city with an easy-to-use interactive map.
 
Upon sign-up, we will provide you with the mobile platform, help you create initial content, and submit your app to the Apple Store. The entire process takes about 3-6 weeks. Once your app goes live, you will have the control to update and edit your own content, including special offers, news posts, images, and other hotel information. At your request, we can provide additional services to help you promote your app to your guests and encourage downloads. We’ll also keep you informed about the latest technological developments, including Smartstay’s expansion into the Android market in the coming weeks, to ensure you receive the best value for your investment.
