| What is BeMountain ?
More than just a high mountain guides group, BeMountain is a mind-set.
BeMountain is more than your usual mountain guide online bureau. BeMountain provides to all mountain professionals members of the IFMGA (International Federation of Mountain Guides Associations), wherever they are, the advantage of a vast network, thanks to the most recent technological advances.
The goals of this network are :
-
To largely increase communication and sales capacity by merging programs from guides and guide offices around the world in one place.
-
To enable all members (guides and guide offices) to sell a program edited by another BeMountain guide (it will also be possible to keep exclusivity on some programs). This represents a gain in time and efficiency for independant guides in the preparation and diffusion of their annual program.
Pro-to-pro
-
Because before being computer specialists, we are mountain professionals.
-
Because we consider that real mountain professionals should be major leaders in their field.
-
Because we give particular attention to what guides have to say and we pay attention to their reality.
-
Because we are convinced that new technologies give grounds to more than a simple online publication.
-
Because we have chosen to broaden our range of services to mountain guides so they have choices in synch with their work and their daily needs while keeping in mind that the web is not at the heart of the guide?s activities and that online services should be offered to them at decent prices.
