All That Power —
Good for Interval-Affiliated Resorts, Too
“Interval-affiliated resorts can leverage the inherent value of these
benefits to further enhance their own vacation ownership value propo-
sition,” says Freed. “After all, the more variety and flexibility that can be
offered to a potential owner, the better for all involved.”

INTERVAL, RESORT DONATIONS SUPPORT SCHOLARSHIPS FOR CTO FOUNDATION
Studies show that today’s travelers like to turn to several resources for
vacation recommendations and information— from the advice of friends and
family to travel websites. Interval members are no different. They, however,
have something others don’t have: access to a plethora of planning resources
through their membership.
“In addition to expanding the advantages of vacation ownership with the
flexibility of the exchange benefit, Interval International offers our members
a trove of proprietary resources and travel services that make planning and
reserving their next great adventure a breeze,” says Sharon Freed, senior vice
president of consumer marketing. “These are by far some of the strongest
sales tools available to encourage prospects to become vacation owners —
and provide one of the most appealing reasons to retain their ownership.”
