Dear All,
As a current leisure sailor who enjoys using my yacht to explore and travel from place to place every summer
I've been asked by a good friend of mine to help gather some feedback on a business he's developing specifically to support yacht owners/captains/sailors with a similar interest.
His concept is to provide yacht owners, sailors, captains etc with a support service through the medium of a concierge that can be reached 24/7/365. The concierge works as a central hub between an international and trusted network of service providers all over the world and the customer. (This marine network has been build over 30 years in the industry). It would ultimately be like having an assistant that knows everyone, everywhere.
As a member you can call with any request, such as finding a berth, a hostess, a cleaner, fuel, a mechanic, to requesting a car be waiting at the marina, a hotel or restaurant booking, tickets to a show, or even just finding out the best places to visit during your stay. The concierge would then activate the relevant service providers and manage everything on the members behalf, relieving them of the stress/time of searching.
So what I would like to find out is...
1, Would you personally see a benefit in having something like this?
(Y/N)
2, What price would you expect to pay for membership an all inclusive concierge per month? €50 - €100 - €200??
3, Would you be kind enough to provide an example of a time when this sort of service would have been useful to you?
If you can include the boat you own/sail and where you keep it, within your answer, I would be most grateful.
Thank you so very much in advance.
