Week Two of the great south east tour of 2010!
I could say its been grueling work, looking at Bed and Breakfast Inns and visiting their communities. I could! But who would I be fooling? This has been as much fun as I should have. I took a video from my cellphone none the less, of last Saturday’s night out. I will post it in a few days. It’s the Cherry Pocket Fish Camp, just outside Winterhave, FL. What a place….lots and lots of local flavor, terrific food, a great outdoor bar and deck as you can see by the video, and a great team that provides terrific service!
We’re introducing two new Bed and Breakfast Inn video’s this week!
Andon Reid Inn Bed and Breakfast - Waynesville, North Carolina
The Captain Lord Mansion - Kennebunkport Maine
We’ve added a new step to the final distribution of our client’s video’s. We take care….AT NO ADDITIONAL COST mind you….of uploading your video to at least 8 video-sharing social networking for even more exposure than just being hosted on our site and our client’s site. More exposure for our clients should turn into reservations too. One of our client’s videos got more than 100 views in the first few minutes of distribution!

On the road visiting Inns in the South East.
Each week gets more interesting here at American Bed & Breakfast Inns. While Jason is holding down the office at home, I’m out and about exploring Inns across the south east. Yes, we met some great folks at the PAII convention earlier this year. Yes, we met some great folks at the New England Innkeepers show last November. But there’s nothing like going to Bed & Breakfast Inns to see these Innkeepers in their own environment. While there are certainly some common elements, each Bed & Breakfast Inn is as unique and interesting as the people who run them.
We’ve added several Inns to our video library. I think its time I start introducing at least some of them, although you can always go to our site, www.abbinns.com to see all of our innkeeping members and their videos. This week it’s the Mermaid & Alligator Bed & Breakfast in Key West, FL.
And The Lafayette Inn in Eaton, PA.
I’ll be back in the office in a couple of weeks! Jason is in the office with the rest of the gang ready to answer any of your questions, or to help you get your Inn’s video project started.

VALUE ADDED Negotiations underway with State Associations for bundled services
Since meeting a number of representatives of state bed and breakfast association at the annual Professional Association of Innkeepers (PAII) conference, we have begun to work with them to develop value added pricing for their memberships.
State association leaders were working hard for their members at the PAII convention and they were tough negotiators! VALUE ADDED! In this economy value added is more important to association services than ever before. Every innkeeper is trying to pinch the most “bang for their buck” out of every purchase, and understandable so.
Association leaders have been delighted to know we would gladly discount prices to their membership based on the number of their members who take advantage of our video production/membership listing opportunity. Bed and breakfast innkeepers get both a video slide show from their already existing high quality photographers AND an annual listing on our website directory. That allows the innkeepers to get a second use for their investment in high quality photography. It further gives the innkeepers two of our products for the already very attractive pricing of one!
We invite association leaders to contact us now for the specific pricing available to them, again based on their membership numbers and interest in our video slide show product.
