WHY ?they makes the Money ?

Competitive advantages compare to us

e.market places & CRS / GDS

1. Money = IT Money let investors to step in a growing market that see IT as the first competitive advantage and greatest barrier to competitors.

2. Money = Visibility e.marketing and visibility, without killer applica-tions or new products, are highly affected by various marketing actions that involve paid services to get immediate visibility into the search engines. PPC etc . etc.

3. Visibility = Better Price

the possibility to get great visibility allowed e.market place to garantee a certain amount of sales; this let emarket place to get allotment / special price that improve revenues.

Page 25: Low Cost Platform Gen. A Direct Worldwide T

Competitive advantage within the big names ?

1. The core business is the same for all of the big names - Hotes - Air - Car

2. All competing on grab market share, due to natural biz organic growth .

3. All have experienced IT divisions.

4. No one has a worldwide network of suppliers ( but us ! )

5. No one has a worldwide local office network ( but us ! )

6. No one seems having any supply chain booking platform.

7. No one seems to focus on new products and contents ( we are the product! )

8. Expedia only, is till now, the incumbent in UGC. ( we are the C ! )

9. Products depend on CRS/HRS/GDS ( strictly depending on 3rd party data )

10. Entry barriers: none but IT and $ £ € :-)

A simple analisation of the companies' advantage

Page 26: Low Cost Platform Gen. A Direct Worldwide T

In Summa

1. There's plenty of space for us to enter the Biz and take leading position in many markets, that are not even approached from all of them, due to relevant lack of a supply network and data integration, and probably due to the necessity to focusing on a short / medium term market share's growth.

2. The Data comes mainly from GDS that has been made in the 50 / 60' and not thought to be interactive with others data.

3. All the big names are simply: great enterpreneurs and technicians with money and depend on other companies' data.

4. A necessary delicate commercial policy tight them all to follow business model where all the participants ( GDS / e.market place / Airlines / travel agency ) has to be part of the win win process, and this is a stop to aggressive commercial policy.

So What ?!?
