The authors take a comprehensive look at the present and future of this growing segment of the hospitality industry, including specialized approaches to marketing, human resources, service quality, finance, legal considerations and professional ethics. Timeshare, or vacation ownership, is a relatively recent leisure phenomenon. It emerged in the late 1950s as a way to secure extra capital resources to fund property expansion. Shareholders had the right to use these properties on a regular basis. Although arrangements have grown in complexity and variation, the model allows for customers to buy rights to use a property for a fixed time period each year. Timeshare arrangements have experienced rapid international growth particularly in the last fifteen to twenty years and are now an important vacation arrangement. Most of the world's major hotel and resort developers now operate timeshare properties. Firms like Marriott, Hilton, Hyatt, Disney and Ramada have brought a new formality and legitimacy to timeshare development and operation.

Download or read book The Business of Timeshares Uncovering the Peaks and Valleys of an Enigmatic Industry written by W. H. Campbell and published by Amplify Publishing. This book was released on 2022-04-05 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: W.H. Campbell offers a unique view of the timeshare industry in The Business of Timeshares, as he is neither its friend nor foe, having owned timeshares over the last twenty years with a generally good experience. Before this book, most writers approached timeshares with a decidedly negative slant because it's a common path with an easy story to tell--but one that rarely leads to any real solutions. Mr. Campbell is or has been at one point a (1) multiple timeshare owner, (2) seasoned real estate investor, and (3) credentialed financial advisor. These points of view are examined in turn as he looks at the timeshare business model through different lenses. The Business of Timeshares is the result of a revealing three-year dialogue between Mr. Campbell and timeshare industry senior executives. Through it, he shares his experience and provides new insights and perspectives from his personal observations, shedding light on the very questions the industry chooses not to answer. This book fills a void with its balanced view of the timeshare industry for consumers. Even among upscale property developers outside the industry, little is actually known of timeshare inner workings due to their secretive, insular nature. Campbell urges the timeshare industry to fundamentally transform itself so that it can be held in greater esteem by the consuming public and their financial advisors. He has found both the timeshare industry and the symbiotic industries spawning from it to be formidable, entrenched, and enslaved to their own coda. Beyond these, the book explores the world of timeshares and the desired leverage that still exists for the suitable few, well-informed purchasers. Enjoy the journey!

Book excerpt: If God can love Jacob, then He can love anyone.Surprisingly, God associates Himself with Jacob more than any other person in the Bible. God calls Himself the God of Jacob on twenty-four occasions. And He calls Himself the God of Israel (the new God-given name of Jacob) over two hundred times.Jacob is not the biblical "hero" that we talk about. There are no children's songs about Jacob. No one sings "Dare to Be a Jacob." His story is more embarrassing than impressive. Yet God ties His name for all eternity to Jacob.Why? Because all of us are like Jacob in some regard. We are all "heelcatchers," struggling to make life work, wrestling with God, fighting to figure out who we are.Jacob's story is our own.In my own struggle with anxiety, panic attacks, perfectionism, past abuse, and the meaning of masculinity, I discovered the beauty and power of God's grace in Jacob's life. The God who loves Jacob loves us all...and is a refuge to all who cling to Him alone."Be still, and know that I am God;I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!The Lord of hosts is with us;The God of Jacob is our refuge."-Psalm 46:10-1
