Local Resort Maps expands territory adds Vail
Resort Maps, creator of 100 customized travel maps across the United States, United Kingdom, Costa Rica and Puerto Rico, recently announced the expansion of its Eagle River Valley, Colorado map to include the town of Vail.
VAIL, CO, October 13, 2010 /Franchise PR News/ -- With the expansion, the next edition of the map, which comes out in December 2010, will be called The Best of Vail and Beaver Creek Resort Maps.
"The Eagle River Valley map was extremely popular. Since the map came out in May 2008, we distributed more than 250,000 copies," said Jessica Grentner, owner of the Vail and Beaver Creek Resort Map. "The popularity made it very obvious that there was a real demand in the area for this caliber of map. Hence the expansion to include Vail."
Resort Maps are colorful, hand-drawn maps of towns and cities, distributed free to area visitors at travel information and rest areas as well as at advertiser locations. Each map highlights local attractions and things to do, restaurants, accommodations, retail shops, real estate and other services. Each advertiser on the map is represented with a display ad on the perimeter of the map, including a color-coded grid locator and their actual building hand-drawn, highlighted and labeled, making them easy to locate.
In addition to the hard copy map, the Vail, Beaver Creek and Avon Resort Maps will be available in interactive form on Resort Maps' revamped Web site, www.resortmaps.com. The site also includes reviews of area attractions and businesses, including advertisers, courtesy of TripAdvisor.com. TripAdvisor is the world's largest travel site.
"We're extremely excited about the new map with the expanded coverage," said Grentner, who started the Eagle River Valley Resort Maps back in 2007 and purchased the Summit County Resort Maps in 2008. "Earlier this summer the announcement of Vail being included in the territory resulted in more than 50 new map pick-up locations and that number is growing."
The initial distribution of the Vail and Beaver Creek map is set for December 2010, with 150,000 copies being printed. Advertising opportunities are still available. For more information, please contact Jessica Grentner at 970-688-4800 or jessicag@resortmaps.com.
