Hello everyone, and thank you for your interest in PTN.
As I have read through the many posts, I realize that I/we must focus more than ever before, to communicate more frequently with our shareholders and potential investor audience. We will do that.
While I cannot comment on any non public information, I can tell you that although PTN has not been immune to the harsh economic downturn, we continue to be optimistic about the future.
Travel is such an amazingly large and diverse industry, and we intend to fully execute on any previously released strategies. We still have our on-going philosophy of running a debt-free business.
While internet travel agencies such as Travelocity, have extremely low customer loyalty, and are suffering from slowing growth of new users, we continue to push forward with our belief that the Word of Mouth model we utilize, will continue to prove our model. It is the more correct vehicle for higher and larger revenue generating leisure travel bookings
We have learned a lot over the last 6 months. This financial hurricane has caused us(and we believe it is a good thing), to really lean out, examine our personnel needs, our expenses, and maximize the best, and make some tough corrections. This is what every good company has done and must do...but sometimes we need a storm to remind us or force us to do it.
Here is a link to the formal presentation of our actual product offering(first half)and a description of how we market(2nd half) what we do. I personally hosted this presentation to help kick off our 2009 marketing wave.
