Press Release Summary = New "TIGER Strategy" helps timeshare developers adapt to
today's marketing paradigm.

Press Release Body = Seattle-based Holiday Group, a pioneer in the timeshare
industry since 1992, is grabbing the timeshare market by the tail. Its new "TIGER
Strategy" is a wholly integrated marketing program available on DVD that is
reinvigorating resort marketing - and helping timeshare developers to adapt to
today's new marketing paradigm.

Like the insurance, auto and investment business, the timeshare industry is
undergoing a profound and irrevocable change as a direct result of the Internet. And
what worked in the past is now obsolete.

This came as no surprise to David Skinner, CEO of Holiday Group. In fact, in 2002,
while speaking before the AMDETUR Mexico Timeshare Conference, Skinner predicted
that "the Internet will create problems" because certain things are destined to
occur: runaway tour costs, rising rescission rates, and a glut of timeshare resales.

"The Internet is an avalanche of information, where consumers have unfettered access
to timeshare and resort information. Developers must adapt their marketing to this
changing marketplace."

Working with resort partners and associates, Skinner developed an aggressive,
marketing strategy that is fully explained on a 25 minute DVD called "TIGER
Strategy: Selling in the Era of Transparency"- http://www.holidayequity.com/tiger.

Until recently, the information advantage was almost always on the side of the
timeshare developers, who typically knew more about their products than the
consumer. But that was then .

Today, the Internet has leveled the playing field. By doing their Internet homework,
consumers can take a virtual tour of a resort, compare prices and amenities, get
feedback from user groups and gain the advantage in the purchase negotiations. As a
result, developers must be more aware and better prepared to meet these consumers on
their terms.

With their Tiger Strategy, Skinner and the Holiday team are on the fast track to
helping timeshare developers reduce sales costs, regain control over the market and
adapt to the future. The era of transparency is a whole new jungle - and the Tiger
has awoken!
