Group Amenities, and Coordination, and Hotels, Oh My!

Whats_new What’s going on? What’s happening? What’s new?

Lots going on with Groople these days folks, and questions like what’s going on? Have very interesting answers! To start with Groople has gone big time with its media coverage. Groople was recently featured in the NY Times. Here’s a preview, "top online group travel companies — Groople...developed tools that help groups of five or more set up Web sites that can be customized for their trips; group members can share information and book and pay for travel…offer discounted rates, particularly for hotel rooms." This NY Times article was part of a larger media blitz Groople has enjoyed lately. Including articles and mentions in some of the web’s top blogs, like mashable.com (social networking news).

Beyond the exciting media attention, Groople is busy making itself better. Here’s one for you- an internal audit has showed that Groople saves its customers a lot of money! Groople has found that they save their customers an average of 21% over the competition.

Here’s the BIG news. New search results! Groople has improved its group hotels search process. The new search results process combines form and function like never before in online group travel. Groople displays your group type’s top hotel choice based on amenities, price, and star rating. You can use Groople’s suggestions or customize the search as you see fit. If you haven’t done a group hotel search on Groople lately, you’ll be impressed with the new look.

More news. GroopVine is getting better all the time. GroopVine, for the uninitiated, is an online community dedicated to the planners and people going on group trips. It’s a place to get your own dedicated webpage to serve as a central place to coordinate, plan, shop for travel, and have fun leading up to a trip. Groople is very focused on working with user suggestions to change and evolve GroopVine. I’d like to highlight two major improvements that Groople has your suggestions to thank for:

Email your group. You wanted the ability to email everyone signed up for your group trip and you got it.

Look and Feel. Groople had some stylish folks come through and give their ideas to make GroopVine more streamlined in appearance and navigation. It’s a sleek machine these days.

More to come in the days ahead. If you like these updates for what’s new at Groople, make sure you come to Groople on Oct 18th…I can’t say exactly what’s going to happen but it’s going to be something special. The only clue I con give is in this sentence...

Happy Trails.
