Anchored local.Location-based mobile technology actually based on where people live or stay. And if you're wondering, yes we still work with hotels.
The majority of people’s lives are spent in and around places (often within 5 miles), whether that’s at home, work, or away at a hotel. (Yes, we still work with hotels!) There’s a need to organize information in and around these places saving people time and making the information more useful, accessible, and rewarding. That’s what Zonetail does. We call it ‘anchored local.’
Location-based apps such as Yelp, and Trip Advisor provide unstructured, general area information. Zonetail is anchored to the places where people live, stay, work, and congregate, providing property information, access, and interaction, while also providing contextually relevant, and targeted sponsored content in the surrounding neighborhood.
A new company with a 50-year history
Zonetail is the continuation of a legacy business, called Kingsway Agencies. Started in 1960, Kingsway was the oldest company in North America supplying hotels with in-room printed guest directories. All of the learning gained from over 50-years experience in the hospitality industry is in our pedigree. Packaged in an elegantly simple, and easy to use design, Zonetail is the modern remix of that business, and is the mobile solution hotels are looking for.
Zonetail’s management has decades of experience in hospitality marketing and digital technology.
