NetroMedia and Real Resorts Renew Partnership; Live Webcam Streaming a Success Story
February 9, 2010 4NetroMedia is pleased to announce today that it will continue to power webcam streaming for Mexican-based luxury resorts group throughout 2010. Both companies were thoroughly impressed with the sharp increase in online reservations and website traffic since the launch of four live “BeachCams” – broadcasting high-quality video from Cancun and Playa del Carmen, Mexico.
Real Resorts’ online marketing team first approached NetroMedia with an exciting idea: Adding an engaging aspect to Real Resorts’ existing website by streaming live video from various hotel destinations.
Using NetroMedia’s experience and expertise, Real Resorts was able to produce a consistent high-quality online webcam stream, broadcasting live video 24/7, and allowing vacation planners to have more than a glimpse of their “dream destination" prior to making reservations.
“We are delighted to offer our valued prospects and members the ability to literally ‘see what they get’, by simply tuning in to one of our webcam feeds”, said Fernando Garcia, Managing Director Real Resorts.
“Adding live video to our website has had a positive effect on both online reservations and website traffic. Thanks to NetroMedia’s professional, friendly approach – the process was carried out smoothly and efficiently.”
“Utilizing video streaming to enhance the user experience has surpassed the point of being popular – it has become a must have”, said Che Pinkerton, President and CEO of NetroMedia. “Discovering new ways to implement streaming video on the internet is what makes innovative thinkers successful. I am delighted to see Real Resorts’ unique approach to business has managed to yield such satisfying results.”
“We are very excited about the relationship between NetroMedia and Real Resorts, and look forward to exploring innovative ways to further increase client-satisfaction and user engagement in the future” Added Jason Potter, Director of Client Services at NetroMedia.
