V O Group, LLC Continues Expansion as Reputation Grows

EGG HARBOR TOWNSHIP, N.J., Feb. 7, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- The past year was a tough one for countless businesses as many faced lay-offs, declining revenues, and even closure. But for The Vacation Ownership Group, a Timeshare Consulting Firm, the year showed steady growth which continues in 2011 with the recent addition of 15 new consultants, a director of sales and four sales managers.

"Our growth has been tremendous over the past few months and has far exceeded our expectations," said Adam Lacerda, President and CEO of the company. "It is obvious we are offering valuable services to vacation ownership consumers, and it is certainly something that has been needed. In fact, since opening, the Vacation Ownership Group has eliminated an estimated $50 million in timeshare debt for distressed consumers."

The V O Group, LLC offers numerous benefits for timeshare owners, and also offers options and consulting services for those thinking of buying a timeshare, or upgrading their current program.

"Vacation ownership is definitely a valuable asset for people who like to travel and explore new areas. It is equally valuable to those who like going to the same place every year. Owning a timeshare can be a great thing, but it can also create many problems for the owners," Lacerda said.

According to Lacerda, some of the complications consumers find themselves caught in include having multiple timeshare deeds and monthly payments, and extreme maintenance fees. He says The Vacation Ownership Group hears from owners daily who are on the verge of bankruptcy, and even after retirement are returning to work to pay thousands of dollars a month for a timeshare they no longer use.

Clients of The Vacation Ownership Group are also happy with the success the company is seeing and the Hazelton's story is one heard often by company consultants.

"After our most recent timeshare vacation we arrived home, after another sales presentation, and received the rest of the debt in the mail, which was in the form of credit cards. We realized we signed for more than we thought and several things that were told to us were false. We placed some calls and got in touch with The Vacation Ownership Group.  Since that phone call, we have been guided in the right direction on how to cancel our most recent purchase with step by step instructions so we can return to life as it was before we found ourselves in so much debt.  We are so grateful for the guidance that the VO Group has given us."

Lacerda says it is statements like this that make V O Group consultants proud of the work they are doing.

"It is gratifying to be able to help these people caught in this merry-go-round they find themselves on. We offer honest, reliable, affordable timeshare options and our client list is growing every day," Lacerda said.

"Our mission is simple. We develop strategies to solve the problems vacation ownership consumers often find themselves caught in," said Fran Santore, Vice President of Sales at the V O Group, LLC. "Our consultants receive tremendous support and input when developing a plan to help the clients we serve. As well, we have consistent, on-going training."

Lacerda says he expects the company to continue its steady growth in 2011, breaking previous records and adding additional consultants.

"We are poised and ready to continue growing and serving our vacation ownership clients both new and old. We have developed an outstanding team and our goal is to keep offering valuable services to timeshare consumers in need of help."
