BVG Design and Bahamas Vacation Guide Testimonials

Chubasco Charters

Thanks very much for your help in getting our two new pages up and running. As always I could not ask for better and more timely co-operation. The two old pages on BahamasVG have served us well and produced lots of bookings, but after 4 years it was time for something new and exciting.

Thanks,

Avis Rent a Car (BAHAMAS)

I get REAL responses (direct email) which is overwhelmingly in reference to Freeport. I safely assume that this is a direct result of our BVG page. The reasonable price of your web hosting versus the amount of business it generates for us make BVG a viable marketing option i.e. THE WEBSITE PAYS FOR ITSELF. I've probably only seen 1 or 2 advertising opportunities where this holds true (and companies approach Avis to advertise with them everyday).

Kayak Nature Tours

I have been in the computer field for more than two decades and specifically, for most of that time, the MIS director for two large hotels and a casino in Freeport. My wife owns and operates a busy nature tour company that depends on the Internet for advance bookings. While I am more than capable of creating and maintaining web pages for the family business we rely instead on the excellent services of Bahamas Vacation Guide.

As a computer professional I am aware of the degree of effort that goes into maintaining and positioning a website and as a client of BVG’s for more than three years we have come to appreciate the level of professionalism they provide. Our requests for changes have always been performed quickly and accurately; they keep up to date with advances in the field and the price of their services is quite modest when measured by the return.

Scuba Bimini Dive Resort

We, at Scuba Bimini Dive Resort, have been satisfied users of the Bahamas Vacation Guide web site and advertising service for quite some time now. We have a fairly tight advertising budget but, after researching the cost effectiveness of advertising with Bahamas Vacation Guide, we felt we were getting the biggest "bang for the buck" by utilizing their service. The management at "BVG" was extremely helpful in creating our advertising package and the results have been better than we hoped for. We are receiving quite a few leads from "BVG" and a good amount of them have turned out to be actual bookings with our resort and dive operation. I would highly recommend using Bahamas Vacation guide and will not hesitate to renew my contract when the time comes.

Exuma Dive

At Exuma Dive Centre we have been customers of Bahamas Vacation Guide for the past four years, Keith and Cheri have been great and very helpful! Being a beginner at the webpage world, they were very helpful with my beginning web site. Also they keep me informed to let me know if things are changing faster than I am. Since I'm not in the states, and also very busy with my own business it is a great help to have them watching over my interest. I'm now working on updating my web site since Keith let me know mine is looking a little out of date. I think anyone would also enjoy working with their team.

Coral Beach Vacation Studio Owner:

I have been advertising with Bahamas Vacation Guide for almost two years. Cheri and Keith have been wonderful. I have so many responses, I can hardly keep up with the requests and communications. The rentals I have gotten have been overwhelming. I feel very fortunate to have had the opportunity to do business with them. I have met wonderful people. Most of my renters are repeats and that is almost a dream. I have a network of interested people and repeat business and people who look forward to coming back "home"again. This is the most professional company and accommodating organization I have ever done business with. Please feel free to contact me at www.bahamasvacationguide.com/diannep.html or (800) 344-4315, pin 00 if you have any questions or concerns.

Dear Keith:

We have been so busy lately that it has taken until now to make the time to write to you.

I have wanted to take that time, just to let you know that our advertising on the Bahamas Vacation Guide has helped us tremendously. We have been receiving numerous calls because of your website, and 80% of them have resulted in confirmed bookings.

We are hoping to have a computer installed soon, and will be able to have an E Mail address, but even relying on the telephone response, we are doing well.

All the best to you and Bahamas Vacation Guide, we'll be contacting you for more work soon.

Sincerely,

The Dolphin Experience

To Whom it May Concern:

Re: BAHAMAS VACATION GUIDE

I would advise that The Dolphin Experience has been a client of the above-captioned company for one (1) year and is very pleased with the level of service that we have been given and the number of direct bookings we have received.

A professionally prepared Web Page hosted at Bahamas Vacation Guide's Website is listed with popular search engines (on-line directories) and maintained at a very inexpensive rate.

We are especially impressed by the efficient service that Bahamas Vacation Guide has rendered in regard to faxing our e-mails to us for response, considering that is has been difficult for us to establish a direct Internet address due to the unavailability of phone lines in this area.

I would not hesitate in recommending Bahamas Vacation Guide to any organization looking for an inexpensive, efficient and professional Internet Advertising Service.

Yours Sincerely,
THE DOLPHIN EXPERIENCE

Xanadu Beach Resort and Marina

To Whom It May Concern:

Xanadu Beach Resort and Marina purchased a Webpage with the Bahamas Vacation Guide in May of 1997. The results were impressive at an extremely reasonable price. Shortly thereafter we expanded to a full site, including a secured server to accept credit card reservations. In addition to the design and hosting we receive full search engine placement (which is on-going) as well as top notch service. I am very glad I went with the Bahamas Vacation Guide.

Naturally when I took over the management of other facilities I added them to the Bahamas Vacation Guide, being completely aware of the benefits of doing so. I also suggested to the other property managers that they get on the Internet with the Bahamas Vacation Guide. These properties include the Royal Palm Resort, Running Mon Marina and Resort, Stoned Crab Restaurant as well as Pier One Restaurant.

The Bahamas Vacation Guide delivers what is promised. A web page or site hosted and promoted at an extremely affordable expenditure. Impressive results are received from our Website and Webpages. I'd be happy to personally respond to your concerns if you'd like more information or have questions.

Sincerely,

Andrew Clarke,

Fragrance of the Bahamas Limited · Proprietors of "The Perfume Factory":

Fragrance of the Bahamas Limited is pleased to write this letter on behalf of Bahamas Vacation Guide whom we have been with for over a year now.

Bahamas Vacation Guide designs and maintains web pages. They offer affordable Internet advertising that reaches world wide. We have received E-Mail all the way from Japan, so we know we are getting our advertising dollars worth.

We highly recommend Bahamas Vacation Guide for meeting any size company's low cost advertising needs. Should you require and further information, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Yours faithfully,

Kings Court Resort:

I would like to recommend for your consideration the Bahamas Vacation Guide. For the past 7 months we have been a subscriber, and, for your information, you can check our web site at the following address:

http://www.bahamasvacationguide.com/kingct.html

As a small family-owned condo-hotel with only fifteen one-bedroom units to rent, we cannot afford a large advertising budget. With the Bahamas Vacation Guide, we can reach people all over the world for a very, very modest fee. Within 2 weeks of subscribing, we booked our first guest through the BVG web site, and the income from that unit alone was enough to pay for our web site for several years to come. In addition to exposing our property to new business, this web site also gives travel and tour operators a reference, and, for example, when a potential guest from the west coast of the US calls to "see if we are really there," we can offer our web site--again providing additional credibility to a very small property over 3,000 miles away from a potential customer.

At Kings Court, we are small enough that we have never computerized our business; which was always a deterrent to getting involved with computer advertising on the Internet. To facilitate us, Bahamas Vacation Guide and Keith and Cheri go the extra mile. When we receive an e-mail message, they are kind enough to check our mail box and fax the e-mail to us. Depending on the nature of the e-mail I can either write, fax, call or when none of those are possible, have someone send a short e-mail response. Since my son and other friends do have access to the Internet, I try not to prevail upon Keith to respond for me; but on a few occasions, he has been generous enough to offer, and I have accepted.

In summary, I cannot say enough good things about this company and their services. I would strongly recommend to any company interested in marketing their product or services to international customers to subscribe to the Bahamas Vacation Guide--particularly those of you who, like us would never be able to afford regular advertising in every market in the world. And as one final testimonial to the benefits of this affiliation: Last week we had guests all the way from Taiwan who booked with us, because they had found us on the BVG web site. This is business we never would have had on our own. Please feel free to contact me for verification.

Sincerely,

Sylvia P. Rodgers
Owner/Manager

We are happy to report that during this time, we have received numerous bookings with respect to the short term rental and in addition, we have also received inquiries from prospective clients with respect to sales and purchases on the island.

We are very pleased with the services provided by Bahamas Vacation Guide and have no hesitation in offering this recommendation on their behalf.
