Travelclick announced at the ITB 2010 it will launch Global Hotel Services (GHS), comprehensive sales and marketing support services that cover corporate, consortia, and meetings, incentives, conferences and exhibitions markets across the globe.

Exclusively available to customers of iHotelier, Travelclick's internet-based, state-of-the-art central reservations system, the service will enable hoteliers to drive revenue simply and cost-effectively through the targeted support and expertise offered through GHS.

Grange Hotels which is the leading independent hotel chain in London, is now leveraging the GHS programme to maximise business and meetings revenue for its 15 high-occupancy four and five star properties located in Britain.

"This new service will greatly benefit our iHotelier customers looking to gain traction in untapped markets where having a dedicated sales person was previously considered too expensive", said Jan Tissara, President of Travelclick International. The service include direct customer contact with travel agencies and travel procurement professionals.

GHS will also deliver a brand presence at trade shows, ensuring targeted exposure at key industry events, and will host a number of road shows on behalf of clients thoughout the year across Europe, the Americas, and Asia.
