Thoughts & Notes On eCommerce for Hotels

My name is Joe Nguyen. I was the Director of Global eCommerce for Millennium & Copthorne Hotels since 2006, based in Singapore. I had been in this field for a few years now; before M & C, I worked at Open World for over 4 years. Open World built websites for many, many hotels around the world and closed down in March 2007! Before that, I was at Interactive Audience Measure Asia (iamasia.com) which closed in October 2001. I am now at Omniture.

Web Wednesday 7.0 - Kevin Huang - Pixel Media Asia

Kevin is in town and agreed to speak on his experience in China.

This was the first time at Brewerkz for Web Wednesday Singapore. We had about 200 people turn up. It's great in that we did not know most of them. I think 30% are recurring guests that show up now and then. And 70% new faces.

Then again, the numbers are increasing - so 30% last month represented over 40% of visitors in July. Hey, I am data geek.
