Washington,
DC 8/10/11 – The
Knowland Group, a leading provider of business development
solutions for the hospitality industry, signed up GreenLinks Golf
Villas at
Lely Resort for Target
Net
service. The resort is known for its two championship golf courses,
fine
dining, spa and first-class meeting facilities. The Naples, Fl., golf resort boasts meeting facilities that are an escape from traditional corporate conferences. Its 2,300 square feet of meeting space is enhanced with beautiful views, abundant sunshine, golf courses, tennis and a rejuvenating spa. “Target Net and GreenLinks are the perfect partnership,” Knowland CEO Michael K. McKean said. “Our sales force automation and meetings management tool will help the resort track down groups that are perfect for the property and help manage each event from meeting space to menus.” Target Net provides true sales force automation and was created with frustrated hoteliers in mind. Operating from the cloud, Target Net is browser-based and does not require expensive installations and maintenance like other archaic software systems. The tool can run more than 40 reports independently – including Activity Reports and Rooms Pace and Daily Transactions. With access to the world’s largest group database, Target Net puts GreenLinks’ sales staff in contact with solid leads supplemented with verified contact information for meeting planners. From there, GreenLinks can execute events, from table configuration to food. The newly enhanced Target Net includes a user-friendly BEO interface, allowing GreenLinks to share necessary information quickly – from the sales team to the front desk to the housekeeping staff. GreenLinks’ sales team can also stay connected with their Facebook fans through the Target Net Social tab. In fact, they can keep tabs on all the property’s social media accounts and post pictures, links, status updates and videos without ever leaving the system. With Target Net, the GreenLinks sales team can pursue, book and deliver on every group account!
