GenaMedia, a Division of Genares Worldwide Reservations Has Quickly Expanded Their Social Media Services to Include Direct Booking and Live Travel Feeds on Facebook

Irving, TX, May 12, 2010 --(PR.com)-- GenaMedia, A Division of Genares Worldwide Reservations Services is one of the first hotel reservations services companies to offer clients direct booking functionality through Facebook. For the first time, hotels can empower their Facebook fan pages with an application that takes the prospective client right to the Hotels Booking Engines on Facebook, creating the Most Expedient, User-Friendly and Affordable Social Media booking process to date.

The use of Social Networking sites such as Facebook and Twitter now exceeds that of e-mail, with more than 500 million users logging in to these communities in 2010. Hotels who don't embrace this enormous market will find themselves losing potential revenue to those that do.

Social Media Direct Booking by GenaMedia, is a win-win for hotels and their guests. Future guests gain another secure route in which to make reservations as well as exclusive access to special deals and promotions only available to Facebook and Twitter Users. Meanwhile, hotels see a number of benefits themselves:

- Offer direct booking links to a potential audience of over 500 million
- Sell distressed inventory through Facebook specials
- Encourage hotel awareness and growth of Facebook and Social Media community
- Provide an avenue of service that competitors are unlikely to match
- Direct Access to Twitter, Facebook, Linkedin, and other Social Media Contests and Promotions, that they would normally not be able to do without the help of our Professional Team of Experts at GenaMedia, A Division of Genares Worldwide Reservations.

Most importantly, Facebook reservations powered by GenaMedia keep clients ahead of the competition by building hotel loyalty in the untapped market of Social Media and directly increasing revenue.

Kirsten Rhode, Vice President of Social Media at Genares, understands the importance of Social Media in the future of its clients:
