elcome to the Yachting.vg monthly magazine. The primary purpose of this magazine is to present yachts for brokerage and yachts for charter from clients using our yachting solutions. In order to provide them with a competitive advantage, we decided to integrate our online platform called The Yachting Network with the Adobe inDesign workflow. The end result being that all the listings from clients using our online yachting solutions are as well included in our monthly magazines. It brings them maximum exposure as well as brand recognition. We believe that there is still a need for a printed version to allow readers to be able to read offline while traveling for example. Furthermore, it allows our clients to reach potential buyers who are not always willing to stay a long time in front of a computer screen in order to review luxury yachts for sale or charter. A printed version still has its charm and provides added value to our clients.
The Yachting Network has local websites in all european countries.

We hope you will enjoy reading every month our magazines. In the following months, every site part of The Yachting Network will be integrated in the Adobe Indesign workflow in order to generate monthly magazines adding again some exposure and visibility to our clients listings. The architecture of our platform now comes full circle. We are able to provide to all clients using our yachting and real estate solutions an integrated platform able to deliver online and offline visibility through very efficient web services. Furthemore, our complete integration to over 15 social networks through APIs allows clients using our solutions to post automatically listings updates on their social media accounts without extra work.
our yachting solutions and social networks and coupled with a printed version will bring them a very powerful platform to increase the visibility of their listings. Unlike third party listing sites specializing in yachting, clients list their yachts only once on their websites in our yachting solutions and then syndication takes place. It insures that their domain name and web site is the place where all listings are managed, indexed first by search engines and where all inbound traffic goes back to when syndicated to other sites. Over time, this strategy will bring continuous lead generation at a fraction of the cost spent on multiple third party listing sites where listings are lost in the crowd.
We believe that a tight integration between the web sites of our clients running one of

MEDIA & yachting
Establishing an efficient SOCIAL MEDIA marketing strategy becomes now a reality for yacht brokerage and yacht charter companies. When establishing the company marketing strategy, several key indicators must be closely watched. As well, deciding the direction of the data flow between the company and third party sites can become costly in terms of advertising budget without bringing long term traffic.
The most costly decision a marketing or sales manager will take when implementing a marketing strategy will be to rely entirely on third party websites to acquire new contacts and promote the yacht listings. This decision is mostly taken due to the apparent easy setup and maintenance third party listing sites seem to provide. However, when analyz-
ing carefully the features provided, as well as the possibility to create inbound traffic to the company’s website or expand the reach to social networks, it does not appear anymore as a cost effective solution in a long term strategyh. All third party listings sites rely on traffic to
their sites in order to be able to charge yacht brokerage and yacht charter firms. Thus, they will most of the time prevent this traffic to leave their site unless it goes to a paid advertisement. The data flow of the listings between the company’s website and the outside world must be carefully evaluated. The success in establishing a long term
approach is to consider, as the central point, the company’s website. ie the single point of entry for all listings should be your website. Then, syndication to third party listings websites specializing in the yachting and to social network will take place. This data flow will allow you to generate inbound traffic back to your site and not to other sites.
You will have the control over the data provided to the external sites. Contacts and leads coming to your site once will most likely come back to your site on a regular basis. A powerful outbound strategy for the listings is to target all available social network and document or images
sharing sites. Through APIs, you can automate the posting of listings information and brochure to a large array of sites which are not used by third party listings websites to avoid loosing traffic. Nowadays, you can maximize your exposure on social networks relatively easily by selecting a yachting solution already integrating the APIs to post au-
tomatically. Furthermore, third party listings websites will not have any incentives to integrate your listings with social networks or other sites in order to keep the traffic on their site. You must put in place a well toughtout strategy which will syndicate listings to generic listings sites. (Olx, Oddle, Vast...), third party listings sites specializing in yachting through the openmarine.org initiative for example: It allows you to generate a standard xml feed and post it to several sites through a subscription. Then, post the listings to your facebook and twitter account. We
went further in the integration of our yachting solutions with a large array of APIs. Clients using our yachting solutions have their listings posted automatically to Flickr, Picasa, Wordpress, Blogger, Olx, Oddle, Vast, Openmarine. Then, PDF brochures generated are posted to Issuu, Scribd, Slideshare, Docstoc expanding the reach and search engines indexing. And a new service launched this month is through the magazines listing all the yachts from our clients and generated in 3 versions: print on demand version, electronic version and ipad version. The goal in creating your marketing strategy is not to get linked to a
single third party listings website where they will dictate their marketing strategy to you and make it very difficult for you to reach potentials clients through all available social medias. In a long term strategy, all inbound traffic must go back to your site. This way, if you decide to stop listing on a particular third party listings website, most of the traffic will still flow to your site through the other channels. On the other hand, if you stricly list on third party sites, the day you stop paying them, you “disappear“ from the internet world...

LUXURY YACHTS CHARTER MARKETING
Given the increasing reach of social networks, it represents an amazingly large audience for your website content. Even when you’re creating content outside of a social network on your own site, you should strive to encourage sharing. Cross-promoting content and driving traffic from your website to your social networks accounts (and vice versa) is an important part of a smart inbound marketing strategy. However, when marketing luxury yacht offered for charter, directing potential clients back to your site should be preferred. It will give your company the opportunity to present your serivces and yachts in a more formal setting.
As well, your site will provide direct means of contacts either through phone numbers or an inquiry form. The inquiries and contacts information are the key to increase your customer base. You need to make sure that you will receive all inquiries without failure or risk of interception by a third party company. A well structured inquiry system will send a notification to the reservation agents and save all inquiries in the database or CRM system as a backup. To increase luxury yachts occupation rate, a dedicated mini site coupled with an online brochure and linked to social networks accounts makes wonders in terms of clearly presenting the yacht features and amenities. Direct contact and reservation forms will enable the clients to get in touch with a dedicated account manager able to present and add his personal touch in terms of services.

Simply placing a luxury yacht in a central listing system does not offer the same level of service to the client who may get a different reservation agent everytime. Bringing personal service to clients will achieve a lot in terms of customer retention. As well, a dedicated site and brochure to market a luxury yacht will avoid being “lost in the crowd” among the 50 other yachts in the customers requirements. central listing fleet. You can manage rates and locations offered while getting over time a mailing list of clients and interested persons who contacted your company about the yacht. It will allow you to build marketing campaigns and send newsletters with added knowledge of your
Building a direct relationship with past clients by offering an online feedback form after the charter period will increase the level of understanding and needs requested by your clients. Furthermore, a dedicated website with a reservation system for a luxury yacht will alllow you to improve the “differentation factor”. While most central agency listings will provide a single page of information about a yacht with a few pictures, a dedicated site will allow you to include videos and image galleries of the yacht. You will be as well able to present the crew in a more interactive way. Clients chartering luxury yachts are used to a high level of personal service and will be more tempted to go with a more personal approach and contacts rather than searching through a full list of yachts in order to compare all features or amenities.

When providing charter marketing services for luxury yachts, you must always take into account the singular needs of each client and ultimately assess the level of services they want to find when selecting your company for their yacht reservation. Providing a highly responsive and customized service will set your company above the competition.

hile having a social network presence through Facebook, Twitter and other social networks proves mandatory nowadays, a new concept tested by our yachting solutions is to benefit from Facebook groups and social activity by bringing back “friends and followers“ to the company’s website in order to propose targeted services and features pertaining to your business activity.

On Facebook for example, the new graph API allows to post update statuses about listings, upload images in albums , post events in calendar.. As well, you can use the facebook user authentication to login into your site and read or contribute to your content. The advantage is that you can at the same time know more about this person and propose a subscription to your newsletter. When he connects to your site with his facebook’s user id , you will

be able then to send messages directly through the facebook graph API. It will allow you to keep this user informed about your company activities automatically through your website. It provides an extra level of possibilities since you no longer need a user to subscribe to your newsletter. While you manage your own facebook groups , you can post automatically news to the groups and invite all new friends automatically to join the groups through the APIs. By carefully planning a number of facebook groups centered around your company’s activities (brokerage, charter), you can dramatically enhance the daily communication sent to the facebook groups by postings automatically random yacht listings, special offers, price reductions....
By inviting your “friends and followers� to visit and connect to your site using their facebook user id , you give them the possibility to share information and recommend other users to connect with you. On the new site www.yachting.vg, we are currently experimenting with several new functionalities of the Graph API. Integrating your site more tighly with external social networks will allow you to communicate faster new information to be given to followers and groups. You will be able to provide a constant flow of information and news through automated tasks. When users visit your website, your can control the information given to them as well as getting their feedback on specific polls or through a comment system. You can inform your groups, friends and followers that the newsletters generated every month is available on your
INBOUND TRAFFIC
NETWORKS website. The important point in this social network integration with your website is to keep the channels open and regularly communicate to provide new information and news. Readers will be more likely to visit your site on a regular basis if they get weekly news from your site. This could be fastidious if you had to do it manually , but by creating automated tasks to post automatically on a regular basis for example a new yacht listing or price reduction offer, you keep the flow going. Our company Latitude 26 provides social media marketing consulting and development services.
The yacht brokers/dealers solution allows a yacht broker or dealer company to manage and promote online an inventory of new and used boats. The solution includes already custom templates for motor yachts, sailboats and equipment. It allows to present professionally the inventory while giving a very quick ad easy management interface to the brokers and dealers. A lead management area gives the opportunity to brokers to manage quickly the requests while keeping an history. Our Solution offers a very powerful synchronization tool in order to increase instantly the visibility of the listings in the Longitude 64 Yachting Network composed of over 25 web sites (and growing) targeting the yachting and luxury markets.
