AXSES Rewards Dover Beach with Facebook Travel Platform

dover beach hotel barbados using arcresBookings for  facebook This month's AXSES reward has been won by Mr. Colin Jordan, Managing Director of Dover Beach Hotel, for the pro-active use of AXSES technology.

Dover Beach Hotel already had a Facebook profile, but now that they have linked it with AXSES latest technology, bookings can now be made directly from their Facebook page.

Colin says: "We appreciate the on-going discussions that we have with AXSES. We like the move to incorporate the new technology. We think it will benefit our business, and we want to thank AXSES for moving forward in that respect."

We also thank Alison Brome, Shared Services Coordinator of Dover Beach Hotel, for her positive feedback and suggestions for improving the application and look forward to continuing to work with her and the Dover Beach staff.

AXSES Leads in Social Networking for Travel

With the launch of Facebook Travel Bookings & Hotel Reservations; arcResBookings, AXSES has taken a giant step into using Social Networks for travel marketing.

arcResBookings.com is the first of its kind travel platform for Facebook.

"It is a first step of many" says Kathy-Lynn Ward, COO of AXSES. "We have been watching social networks spread from the school to the mainstream. With the fastest growing section now being adults and business people, Social networks are changing business and the Internet. AXSES is ready to help travel suppliers with other innovations like arcresBookings for Facebook".

With arcResBookings for Facebook, hotels and tourism operators can now easily create and manage Facebook pages complete with all products, rooms, rates and bookings capabilities. Facebook Travel Bookings is a new marketing channel for hotels and tourism operators. "It reaches out to new markets and engages with guests in a friendly environment according to their own rules" says Ward.

Things to know about social marketing

Ian Clayton, CEO of AXSES, along with Kathy-Lynn had been busy researching social media, and testing and evaluating all the major networks and channels. The research covers all major media including Digg, YouTube, Twitter and RSS to name a few. It also analyses who is using what and why.

This social media analysis is now available at

The AXSES Team has also put together a list of points and insights on Facebook - see this at how to use Facebook for travel marketing.

At the top of the list is the issue of your copyright. The discussion on Facebook as an authority is important as it underlies the essential strategy that will differentiate Facebook from Google and Search Engines, explaining how it might become more relevant than Google in many cases.

The article talks about using Facebook profiles, pages or groups and suggests how to use all of its components. see Facebook Demo
