British Woman Set To Capture Share of Ski Business
MONDAY, 26 JANUARY 2009
British business woman Angela Priestley is planning to secure a share of the multi million pound winter travel market with the launch of an internet based ski and snowboarding travel agency from the tropical paradise of Bali.
Angela’s company, PlatinumPiste.Com delivers the full range of snow experiences for the novice skier right up to thrill seeking extreme skier. As a ski fanatic herself Ms Priestley wanted to ensure customers had the very best choice of resorts across the world and include specialist services at the most competitive prices.
Harnessing the very latest technology the business is based in the UK whilst Angela manages the company from her home in Bali, where she lives with her husband and young family.
“I love skiing but got really fed up with the lack of attention many travel agencies put into sourcing great resorts and specialist services for today’s skier. I want to take the hassle out of organising ski passes and ski equipment so that skiers can get on the slopes straightaway” Angela said. She added, “we rely on technology to drive our business but we are most definitely a business that delivers the personal touch.”
Talking of her international lifestyle Angela said “when my husband and I decided to leave the UK we really wanted to go on a traveller’s adventure. As part of this adventure I am now keen to ski resorts in Japan, Australia and New Zealand with a view to adding these countries to our destinations. Bali, where we now have a business, is an ideal base to fulfil these ambitions.”
With one phone call to PlatinumPiste.Com customers can talk to experienced agents who can tailor a holiday around their specific needs. And for the experienced skier a web based platform that offers the very best resorts and facilities at Internet prices. The website also tracks news from the slopes, reviews of holidays and slopes even a section for holiday-makers to upload their own reviews and ski videos.
All holidays booked through PlatinumPiste.Com are ATOL and ABTOT protected and the company is proactive in developing a responsible tourism policy offsetting the carbon footprint created by travellers.
