The Japanese Steakhouse & Sushi Bar is a local favorite where everyone was able to relax and enjoy some great food with their friends and loved ones. “It’s important to promote out employees and the effort they put into everyday” said Kogelman.

In Tampa, BuyATimeshare.com employees celebrated the holidays together with an event catered by the always decadent Cheesecake Factory. Wesley Kogelman explains that it’s not all just about celebrating the holidays, but about keeping his team happy. “It’s a great chance to get everyone together after a long year of hard work and celebrate all of the success we’ve had.”

In 2011 BuyATimeshare.com was included in the prestigious Inc. 5000 list as well as sponsoring several events for local non-profit organizations. Building up to Christmas was holiday-inspired week of contests and games. The staff was able to win gifts from under the charismas tree, or could spin the prize wheel for every property that joined the resale market.

The New Hampshire office wrapped up the weak of celebration with an office-wide luncheon and the first annual “Ugly Sweater Contest.” Participants donned the most hideous Christmas attire they could find to win the title of ugliest holiday sweater. In Florida, employees decorated their desks with holiday ornaments, garland and lights

With a sluggish economy and high unemployment, corporate holiday parties have reached a 20-year low. Holiday celebrations are crucial to keeping a team close and to boost morale among colleagues. Everyone at BuyATimeshare.com is definitely showing signs of the Holiday spirit. From everyone at BuyATimeshare.com, we wish you a very Happy Holiday Season!

On Monday, November 21, the managers of BuyATimeshare.com donated their time at the Nashua Soup Kitchen. This came as a welcomed surprise to the Food Pantry, which expects to distribute over 1,000 Holiday Boxes to needy families in the area. President of BuyATimeshare.com Wesley Kogelman said, “We look forward to another great holiday food drive and I look forward to helping these families again.” A special thanks to Frederick’s Pastry’s for participating as a drop off location. And thanks to our own Randy Medeiros for a great job organizing the event and being the man on the microphone.

The online advertising company has provided $74,958,861 in qualified offers to its advertisers from January 1 through September 30, 2011. Such offers are measured through the company’s sophisticated internal process for validation when they are passed through to owners who have advertised their timeshare for sale or rent on the company’s website.

Nearly 8,000 confirmed offers have been referred through BuyaTimeshare.com as authentic offers to advertisers, an indication that there is a viable market of potential travelers looking for timeshare products for their next vacation.

Cutting-edge technology enables the BuyaTimeshare.com website to validate offer activity for advertisers that do not want to waste their time with offers that are not legitimate, according to Wesley Kogelman, president and CEO, BuyaTimeshare.com
“One of the major differences between our service and our competitors is that we have the ability to provide qualified offers to our customers,” said Kogelman. “When an owner receives an offer through our site, they know it’s real.”

Of the total offers, over $70 million in offers were to buy timeshare from advertisers, with rental activity generating another $4.8 million in offers from people looking to rent timeshare.

“We spend a large amount of time and resources getting our website in front of potential buyers and renters online,” added Kogelman. “A quick Google search shows that we’re doing everything we can to provide value for our customers.”

With sponsorship on both the Fairway and the Green, Wesley Kogelman and volunteers from BuyATimeshare.com have been instrumental in donating thousands of dollars to the organization. Even with a prevailing need for the services and support the Big Brothers Big Sisters of Greater Nashua & Greater Salem provide, federal, state and municipal funding have all declined significantly. Fortunately, annual events like the CBM Cares Golf Classic have made it possible for those like Kogelman and his team to contribute to this charitable cause. This fundraiser will go toward the continuing efforts by the BBBS to have a positive impact on the community’s children. If you would like to join Wesley Kogelman and the Big Brother Big Sisters of Greater Nashua, call 603-883-4851 or Click Here for information on how to donate and get involved.

The BBBS one-to-one mentoring program is without charge for families therefore community support for fundraisers like the CBM Cares Golf Classic is critical in accomplishing their mission to support kids with positive role models. “It takes an incredible amount of support from many CBM volunteers, raffle & auction item donors, event sponsors and over 100 golfers to make this event a huge success and for that we are grateful”, says Joy Barrett CEO of the BBBS Nashua & Salem agency. Breakfast was provided by Frederick’s Pastries; Texas Roadhouse generously prepared a delicious lunch and snacks and beverages were donated by Frito Lay. 100% of proceeds raised will be donated directly to Big Brothers Big Sisters of Greater Nashua & Greater Salem to support their mentoring programs.

The annual Inc. 500/5000 list includes a comprehensive look at America’s independently owned businesses. Wesley Kogelman, who owns and operates BuyATimeshare.com in both Tampa and Merrimack, has designed a new approach to the for-sale-by-owner marketplace, working to better the industry and the buying experience. “We are thrilled to once again be recognized through the Inc. 5000 List as one of the fastest-growing companies in the country,” Kogelman Explains. “Our ‘buy owner’ marketing platform provides outstanding value for our advertisers and it is great to see the success of our company recognized by such a respected organization.”

BuyATimeshare.com continues to add new features to its site, such as tool that allows website visitors to search its inventory by specific resort locations, brand names and regional areas. As one of the most sophisticated search features in the resale industry vacationers can even organize their search according to resort amenities or nearby attractions. Wesley Kogelman and BuyATimeshare.com have also been listed as one of BusinessNH Magazine’s Top 10 Companies to Watch in 2009; the company also operates Timeshare Pulse, an innovative program designed to help buyers and renters find the timeshare vacation of their dreams.

Each company is ranked according to revenue growth from 2007 through 2010. Wesley Kogelman’s marketing firm ranked number 3784 out of the top 5000 companies from across the country. BuyATimeshare.com ranked an impressive 19th among the fastest growing companies in the granite state. With a growth rate of 39% over the last three years, the New Hampshire firm also ranked 339th nationally among the top 500 advertising and marketing companies. BuyATimeshare.com was also listed as one of Business Magazine’s Top 10 Companies to Watch in 2009. And they were right! Since then Wesley Kogelman and his team have added several innovations to the secondary market to improve the resale experience for both timeshare buyers and sellers. BuyaTimeshare.com has been in business since 2000 and has 80 employees between its corporate headquarters in New Hampshire and sales office in Tampa, Florida.

BuyATimeshare.com has been busy over the past decade, working to become the most effective online timeshare resale and rental experts worldwide. Selected for this honor for the second year in a row is certainly a tribute to all of the hard work and dedication invested by the entire staff. “We are thrilled to once again be recognized through the Inc. 5000 List as one of the fastest-growing companies in the country,” Kogelman Explains. “Our ‘buy owner’ marketing platform provides outstanding value for our advertisers and it is great to see the success of our company recognized by such a respected organization.”

Wesley Kogelman will be working directly with developers, homeowner associations, and management companies to learn more about the many different shared ownership business models. In order to better the user experience for all of BuyATimeshare.com clientele, as well as future customers, Kogelman hopes to share ideas with industry leaders to further increase the value of the secondary timeshare market. There are many facets to the fractional and shared ownership concept. And the many segments and guests speakers will build on the future of how we all vacation.

Featured speakers like Jeffrey Ma and noted marketing strategist Peter C. Yesawich, Ph.D, will be sharing their expertise on changing trends in business, technology and consumer activity. Representatives of Smith Travel Research and the American Resort Developers Association (ARDA) will be discussing the current status of the industry. And throughout the day presenters will discuss the future of mixed-used resort, government regulations, and consumer demographics.

Wesley Kogelman has been providing timeshare solutions for over a decade. During this year’s conference he is hoping to make BuyATimeshare.com a more effective resource for timeshare buyers and seller. The 13th Annual Shared Ownership Investment Conference has been aptly themed “A New Perspective,” and will focus on networking and the sharing of ideas. Subjects like the future of shared ownerships like traditional timesharing, fractionals, and private residence clubs will be covered by those who have had success in those segments.

BuyATimeshare.com learned that one of their co-workers church, Mt. Calvary M.B. Church in Lakeland, FL, was coordinating a program to supply children with supplies for the 2011-2012 school year. The program, headed up by Pastor Avery L. McCree was set up to originally donate supplies, such as crayons, notebooks and pencils to local children for the upcoming school year. The program was expanded to include backpack donations for children to carry their supplies. The employees at BuyATimeshare.com rose to the occasion and donated numerous backpacks, which were given to children after Services on August 14, 2011.

BuyATimeshare.com, always an industry leader in advertising and marketing and striving to make our community a better place through charitable donations.
