AdventuresExpress.com is also used for event and activity registration, scheduling and booking/payments.
Companies already using SSS software and adventuresexpress.com include the Embarcadero in Newport, Vista Balloons, Imperial River Rafting, Mystic Sea Whale Watching, Bullwinkles, and more than 75 other outdoor activity providers.
"We're excited to introduce AdventuresExpress as the new online marketplace for outdoor activity operators and for consumers," says Ron Menconi, Vice President of Merchandise and Marketing for G.I. Joe's. "We see this relationship as an excellent way to make it easier for our customers to connect with our certified guides, and to make sure everyone has the right gear."
"With G.I. Joe's marketing support we will drive a lot of consumer traffic to AdventuresExpress.com and then, close the sale with online booking and payment tools from SelfService Systems," says Larry McLean, president of SelfService Systems. "We will help keep business operators and clients on the same page through email order confirmations and text-messages to cell phones that are sent automatically when an order is booked online.
Many business operators are using these automatic communication features to set up packages with like-minded partners. Now we can help sell a hotel room, along with a fishing trip, and use email/text message to let everyone know when the business has been booked and paid for.
Our current focus is helping the grass-roots tourism operator, the backbone of Northwest tourism industry, transition to the Internet economy, because this is where their customers are."
