My website inspired a new gadget for Beoglobe online guide listing!

As a free-lance tourguide, my website is my main advertising tool. However, I also advertise in proffessional profiles in several online tourguide listings.

I was just contacted by one of them, Beoglobe.com, to let me know that they loved the introductory videos I have in Foreverbarcelona.com, and decided to "copy" my idea to improve the service they offer to the guides advertising with them. So my website has inspired them! And now any Beoglobe tourguide can send them a video so the website administrators upload it on their profile.

I'm happy to be "inspiring"!
Here is the translation of the letter they sent me (original in French here):

Hello Marta,

We are always looking to improve beoglobe.com offering new possibilities.
The most recent one affects you directly, as we chose your site to illustrate it: it's about video uploading.
We found yours were particularly convenient, as they allow potential clients to "get to know" the guide better, assessing their language skills.

Feel free to check the result on your profiles:

http://www.beoglobe.com/p/guia-es-617-espana-Barcelona-Ingles-Frances-Espanol.html
http://www.beoglobe.com/p/guide-en-617-spain-Barcelona-English-French-Spanish.html

Do you like it?

For beoglobe.com safety reasons, only beoglobe.com administrators can add or remove videos right now.

Have a nice day
Xavier Fabre
