Trident Business Management Launches Website, Announces Name Of Advisory Partners
Scottsdale, AZ, October 28, 2009 - Trident Business Management has recently announced the launch of its new website to serve the needs of its existing and prospective clients and has named the first two members of its prestigious Advisory Board.
The Trident website (www.tridentbusinessmanagement.com) was created to help companies in the lodging and timeshare sectors of the leisure industry. It features information about the company, services provided, and professional credentials of the Managing Partners, James (Jimmy) Danz RRP and William (Bill) Tsao, two of the timeshare industry’s most respected senior level operating executives.
Based in Scottsdale, Arizona, Trident Business Management is an implementation-based business solutions organization created to aid companies in need of highly specialized operational expertise and management services. Trident clients generally require corporate, financial, or operational improvement, which may include short-term crisis management, longer-term stabilization, repositioning and growth management.
Adds Bill Tsao, “We formed Trident Business Management to help bring positive change to our industry at this critical time. To help us accomplish this ambitious objective, we assembled a best-in-class group of professionals to serve as our Advisory Partners.”
“Our Advisory Partners are widely acknowledged as successful business executives and respected authorities in their respective areas of expertise within the lodging and timeshare sectors of the leisure industry,” adds Danz. “Since every client has a unique set of challenges, these Advisory Partners will provide us with strategic guidance and support, working with us as a collaborative team to customize solutions as we match them with each client’s individual needs.”
The first two Advisory Partners named by Danz and Tsao are Sunil Aluvila and Steven C. Hicks. Sunil Aluvila is an innovator in marketing, product development, and the application of emerging technology for the vacation rental and ownership industry. He will assist Trident Business Management clients in these highly specialized areas. For the past 19 years he has amassed extensive experience in strategic planning, interactive marketing, vacation club product development, e-business development, and online distribution of vacation products. He served in a senior management capacity with Shell Vacations Club, heading market research, vacation club product and loyalty program development and development of interactive sales systems. He founded Vibes Interactive in 2005 to build and support a customer acquisition, retention and value maximization platform that connects vacation ownership and vacation rental companies with customers in creative ways to deliver measurable results. Under Sunil’s leadership, Vibes has developed a suite of innovative interactive sales and marketing products for the vacation rental and ownership industry. In 2007, a joint venture was forged with Interval International (NASDAQ: IILG) to use Vibes’ interactive marketing platform to develop and support VacationSource.com, an aggregate tour generation and vacation rental portal for Interval International’s affiliate resorts. www.vibesinteractive.com
