Negril Escape Now Accepts JAHM Token and Steem
Greetings everyone from Team ReggaeSteem,
We would like to introduce our first featured resort, The Negril Escape Resort and Spa @negrilescape. Negril Escape is located on One Love Drive at the western tip of Jamaica, also known as West End. Set in a plush tropical garden, separated from the Caribbean Sea by a few feet of majestic cliffs; Negril Escape is a nature lovers dream come true.
Please check out the Negril Escape intro post, and give them a follow here:

— ReggaeSteem Co-founder Delroy Johnson (@miyard) with hotelier, David Wallace
Members of our team, @miyard and @donald.porter have worked with the hotel for years. Providing marketing, consulting and working along with owner Mr. David Wallace on many community initiatives. The Negril Enhancement Foundation, the Westmoreland Hemp and Ganja Farmers Association (WHAGFA) and the Negril Entertainment Association all at one point called Negril Escape home.
Negril Escape provides a unique opportunity for us to implement and test merchant services before approaching other hotels and businesses. A pilot project; we get to set our standards and protocols with a high margin of error.
They were more than welcome to sign on and schedule a time for their front desk staff to meet with us for a bit of Steem blockchain and crypto-training. lol...
The On-boarding Process (summarized)
Although this is fit for another full-post later on, we’d like to briefly explain our merchant onboarding process.
- Initial meetings. We discuss crypto tourism and how it can provide a new source of guests and exposure for the hotel. Plug ReggaeSteem and how we are bridging the gap between crypto-tourism and Jamaica. Based on sentiment level, we create an account for them to test— free of charge.
- Follow-up meetings depending on owner sentiment, show progress of platform and other niche accounts (other hotels/businesses). If an account was created and intro post created by our team, emphasizing comments from potential visitors is priority.
- Up sell featured advertising packages, JAHM Power and SP.
- Create QR Sheets and prepare print media; brochures, JAHM Stickers, ReggaeSteem Signs.
- Meet with owners/managers to discuss fiat off-ramps and legal, safe staff/supplier payment procedures.
- Meet with hotel/business staff for training. This includes making consistent posts on the platform, replying to leads and using SteemWallet along with the QR sheets to accept payments.
- Regular visits to ensure that the crypto transition is smooth.
- Telephone hotline will be available between the hours of 10am to 3pm on business days to assist merchants and ReggaeSteem members.
ReggaeSteem JAHM Fest 2020
Given the freedom loving, free spirit nature of the resort; we took the liberty to inquire about having the resort central to JAHM Fest 2020 (June 26th-28th in Negril, Jamaica). The deck and 2 floor conference center are just about perfect plus we will save us a ton on setup/staging. More details soon, here’s a couple pics we took to inspire:

So neat to see what you guys are doing. Miles ahead of the other tribes which basically just do online stuff.
Great work!
Wow, welcome David!
Thank you for sharing the process, a really good template. I suspect that there's lots of behind the scenes work, too, making sure that systems are in place to support this :)
#jahmfest2020 sounds fabulous!
This is super fly. I would come out just to have an excuse to spend STEEM. Excellent initiative to tie the blockchain into the fiber of our lives.
Can't wait to go to Jamaica this coming January. I'll 100% check out Negril Escape to let everyone coming to #jahmfest2020 know about it from a non-local perspective. Who knows maybe I'll be in Negril twice next year. Can't wait to see who else you onboard.
Good jhob to our jham token.
Me like it and mr go stake to all holiday in jhamaica
