COMBINING LEISURE WITH TECHNOLOGY

Anyone who has travelled and stayed in a hotel in any busy town or city will realise how important it is to quickly recognise where everything is outside the hotel, particularly if they do not know the area or country.
Ask AMI provides a state-of-the-art touch screen kiosk to help guests orientate themselves in an unknown area and find essential information easily and quickly.
At the touch of a button guests can discover local restaurants, bars, casinos, clubs, shops, attractions, tours, taxis, limos, valeters, pharmacies, car hire, florists, health and beauty services, in fact pretty much everything they would possibly need whilst staying in a hotel - even a shoe repairer and tarot reader!
Complementing concierge this service is 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and is normally situated in the main foyer area of a hotel.
Lefteris joined the company in October last year and has expanded his business to 6 kiosks in separate hotel locations. His first kiosk has developed quickly to include over 60 advertisers, including brand names such as Versace, Guess and Calvin Klein. Each of his kiosks, with its many advertisers, now generates Lefteris a regular and ongoing income and he has even more kiosks planned for the future.
The business can be developed on a part-time or full-time basis and simply requires good communication skills from the franchisee and can be operated from home using only a telephone and computer to start earning money.
Philip R. Smith-Lawrence, MD, is quick to point out. "This business is ideal for someone looking to start something different and exciting with a low investment level. No experience is required as we provide full training and support and ideally you should have some sales and marketing experience."
