The Web-Based Marketing Plan Tool-Kit; A New Product Launch By Hotel Reports

ITHACA, N.Y.- Lodging industry decision-makers have a tough time getting an
accurate and understandable read on localized and specific markets.
Sometimes data and statistics can be incomplete and inaccurate. At other
times market reports might be too expensive, hard to get, or out-of-date.
And often, decision-makers have to turn to half-a-dozen different data
providers in order to get a complete roster of market information relevant
to a specific area.

However, starting this week and running through Friday, October 6,
decision-makers and property managers can turn to one source on the Web for
all their market information needs. At www.hotelreports.com, RealTime Hotel
Reports, LLC, has launched the Marketing Plan Tool-Kit, a zip code
specific roster of seven types of market indicators. Users visit
www.hotelreports.com, enter their assigned user ID and password, and order a
report that contains:

The 15 Closest Properties in Development that show projected additions to
the hotel's competitive market supply.

Business Patterns that include county demographics, expenditures, and
density of hospitality venues.

Workforce Characteristics that include county employment statistics and
income levels.

Airport Traffic Statistics that include traffic volume for the closest major
airport to the property.

Statewide Travel Statistics that include demographics and spending patterns
of state visitors from the largest
feeder states for the selected area.

The order is deliverable via e-mail, fax, or next-day postal delivery.
