RV Resort, Park, & Campground Owners Turn to WiFiRV for Help in 2008

Increased Demand for Wireless Internet makes it the #1 Amenity for Park Visitors

WiFiRV, the premier provider of WiFi Internet services in the United States for the outdoor recreational hospitality industry, reports continued growth for 2008 and a new budget of $1,500,000 to invest wireless services for the RV industry in 2009.

The tough economy has increased demand for WiFi technology. It’s the most economical way to get Internet to campers but WiFiRV warns property owners and managers; WiFi is not without challenges if not planned well in advance. Choosing a technology partner that educates and has nationwide coverage is important if you seek reliability. Once a WiFi amenity is installed there is no turning back – campers demand it to stay happy!

Consistent high-speed WiFi Internet access is what property managers want but this not easy to accomplish without proper planning. RV parks, campgrounds, and resorts were geographically located so people could “get away from it all” but now they want to be away from it all and take it all with them too. WiFiRV has prioritized where to invest through affiliation with property owner, management, and financial investment groups in the RV industry.

Benefits through alliances garner access to thought leaders and in turn offer options to provide group discounts, wise financial planning, and technology selection diligence.

“In 2002 we started WiFiRV when we recognized a need to help travelers stay connected on the road,” stated John Borg II, CEO and Founder of WiFiRV. “We created simple Do-It-Yourself-WiFi systems, complex managed bandwidth amenities, and everything in between to give owners a choice.”

Since founding WiFiRV, Borg has seen the benefits of WiFi amenities in RV parks, resorts, and campgrounds. Properties consistently report increased occupancies and loyalty. To date WiFiRV has invested $2,500,000 in capital, labor services, and equipment to bring parks online and continues to support the market.

When considering WiFi usage, demographics, terrain, and weather all need to be factored to ensure reliability. Designing the right amenity for the environment is critical to success. Not all properties are a good fit for a WiFi solution, despite what the RV travelers and patrons may demand…
