VFM Leonardo will create and host customized, fully-branded multimedia viewers for each of Carlson's hotel brands for display on their websites. When consumers view rich media content on any of Carlson Hotels sites, it will be displayed within the customized viewer. The content in the multimedia viewers will be managed in VScape
Also using the VScape platform, Carlson will deliver their hotel images to thousands of electronic channels and websites in the VNetwork in the formats and delivery methods required. The VNetwork is the largest online visual content distribution network (http://www.vfmleonardo.com/products-vnetwork.php?xtor=AD-7) for the travel industry and includes all four GDSs as well as Pegasus and thousands of third-party websites and channels including Travelocity, Orbitz, Priceline, TripAdvisor and more, as such; Carlson's hotel images will be available on the broadest number and variety of relevant sites to provide travel shoppers with a consistent collection of hotel visual content.
"Carlson Hotels believes that visual content is essential to the customer experience. Today customers want a visual to better identify with the product . Carlson Hotels is focused on ensuring that our visual content is always fresh and relevant," said Christine Brosnahan, vice president Distribution and Reservation Services, Carlson Hotels Worldwide. "VFM Leonardo will assist our hotels in achieving this goal."
Carlson Hotels has also selected and endorses VFM Leonardo as their preferred distributor of rich media. Individual properties under the Carlson brand flags may choose to distribute their hotel's rich media using VFM Leonardo's VBrochure Online Merchandising System (http://www.vfmleonardo.com/products-vbrochure.php) which integrates seamlessly with VScape.
