Curaçao, April 1 2011
Curacao-based Dragonfly Media has entered into partnership with Hoteliers.com for the sale of reservation modules for hotel websites and Facebook pages on the islands of Aruba, Bonaire, Curacao, Saba, St. Maarten and St. Eustatius.

Hoteliers.comHoteliers.com was founded in 2005 to provide commission-free bookings for hotels: room reservations as well as packages and meeting venue requests for a fixed monthly charge. The monthly charge is based on the number of rooms in a hotel.
By joining Hoteliers.com, hotels can then be booked online using the www.hoteliers.com site.

Hoteliers.com is the market leader in The Netherlands and Belgium in respect of online booking platforms. Ease of use and insight into price/availability in combination with a fixed low monthly charge ensure that these reservation modules are easily sold. Furthermore, Hoteliers.com recently made it possible to post booking engines on Facebook so that commission-free reservations can be made via this channel, also for a fixed low monthly price to the hotel.

Hotel Kura Hulanda and Kura Hulanda Lodge are the first hotels in Curacao to use this reservation module.

Hoteliers.com is owned by two private shareholders, Erik Baumann and Erwin Kleiboer. The company has 24 employees, including 3 overseas.

Dragonfly Media NV was established in Curacao in November 2006. The company specializes in web design, web development, social media marketing and internet marketing and is owned by Oscar Fuentes, Joost Schrier and Bo Loefstok.

For more information, please call Bo Loefstok at 737 1233 or 525 1047 or email her at bo@dgfmedia.net.

HSMAI Curacao Presentation ‘How to use Social Media to improve your business’

Friday, November 27th, 2009

Together with the HSMAI Curacao Chapter, we organized a presentation: ’How to use Social Media to improve your business’.

November 26th, over 50 people from various branches, showed their interest in this topic by coming to Floris Suite Hotel to join the presentation.

As the speakers, we touched several social media (platforms) such as Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube. We addressed the various benefits of using social media for business purposes.
Together with us, a panel of social media users (consisting of Bram Reukers from Heineken, Jerry Gesser of Stradius and Stefan Dubbeling of Floris Suite Hotel), was ready to answer questions of the audience.

At the end of the presentation, it turned out that the interest in using social media is there, but that sometimes the know-how is not.
One important question from the attendants was: Could you organize a training for people who want to use social media, but just don’t know how or where to start?

And of course we would be happy to do so. We will send an update to all people who expressed their interest in this training as soon as possible. (more…)
