In 1993, Mr. Patel, started the company Take Time To Travel, Inc., a travel
reservation agency serving an international clientele. His decision to start
this type of business was a result of numerous years of experience working for
a major tour operation in the United Kingdom that specialized in organizing
complete tour packages for travelers worldwide.
Although Take Time To Travel provided travel arrangements for individual as well
as group travel, hotel arrangements were also provided on a limited, however
successful, scale. The decision to enter the hotel reservations service on a
major scale was always an objective. In 1997 Mr. Patel made the decision to
disenfranchise from Take Time To Travel and enter the hotel reservations
business by starting Hotel Conxions. Paramount to this decision was the
approval from the major credit card companies authorizing the use of their
facilities. The company began operations with an initial investment financed by
the owners personal investment.
HotelConXions.com was one of the first online discount hotel reservation systems
in existence. In 2003, the decision was made to relaunch the brand and the
website. Mr Patel engaged the expertise of Creative Director, Designer and
Strategic Marketing Specialist Goran Billingskog to recreate the company's
business and brand.
