More expats are now relocating with limited support and local packages which exclude arrival help. Small and Medium Enterprises (SME) and HR departments don’t necessarily have knowledge of all the destination services available, many with accessible pricing options. Welcomepacks addresses these needs with 9 service options provided in 9 beautiful boxes, all of which include a voucher to redeem against a destination service provided by a carefully selected, quality rated service provider. The services are introduced in a new online shop: Welcomepacks.com

Singapore -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/20/2012 -- The team of relocation specialists behind the successful worldwide portal ExpatFinder.com has launched an innovative solution for HR departments, managers and individuals. Welcomepacks.com gives access to quality destination services for welcoming new foreign employees or arrivals to Singapore: http://www.welcomepacks.com

Each Welcomepack includes a voucher which can be redeemed against a quality service, as well as a city guide set in a stunning box that can be customized to include logo and message from the company. The voucher can be redeemed at reception of the box or immediately upon purchase thanks to the instant Electronic Voucher.

Welcomepacks are suited to both individuals and the Human Resources department to give to expats upon arrival or prior to arrival. The 9 Welcomepacks on offer provide services such as: Home Search, Orientation Tour, School Search, Orientation Workshop, Cultural Training, Home Advisory, Immigration, Partner Support and the Premium Welcomepack.

In addition to offering a tangible welcoming gift to the arriving employee, Welcomepacks enables the HR department, manager or hiring company to significantly indicate that they care about the employee. By showing this care, companies can increase retention of talents and Return on Investment (ROI) on the assignment.

"This new venture is an obvious result of our years of experience in the relocation industry. Through the success of Expatfinder.com we have had the chance to cater to thousands of expats, organize hundreds of relocations and service human resources departments around the globe. It was just the next step for us to deliver an innovative solution offline, on the ground and starting locally in Singapore," said founder Sebastien Deschamps.

The distribution of Welcomepacks leverages on a state of the art online shop, http://www.welcomepacks.com, with rich content, easy step by step purchase options and secure payment. "We noted the need for all inclusive and transparent pricing, as well as a detailed and transparent definition of the destination services included. We are pleased with the result and to be the first to give easy access to such crucial services for arriving expats," adds Sebastien Deschamps.

With an increasing number of companies trying to tap into the steady growth in Asia, the product suits a rising number of new companies starting up as branches of small and medium sized companies headquartered in Europe and the US. The easy to use aspect also fits the needs of more established multinational companies locally which hire expatriates on a regular basis, given the high turnover of such positions.

Welcomepacks Pte. Ltd, starting from its Singapore headquarters, is planning a rapid development in Asia with over 10 destinations to be covered within the next months.

The premiere innovative portal acts as a one stop website to answer the needs of the growing population of Germans living outside of Germany. The website helps users save time and money by comparing a wide range of products and services in four key areas: Housing, Insurance, Finance and Relocation wherever the expat is located around the world

Singapore -- (SBWIRE) -- 08/08/2011 -- Interexpat Pte. Ltd., the Singapore headquartered Internet Services Company today launched http://www.ExpatRatgeber.com, a new internet portal targeting German nationals preparing for expatriation or already living or working abroad.

The simple interface of the website offers comparison features of major German service providers as well as other renowned companies around the world who can cater to the needs of the German expatriate consumers in everything from banking services and health insurance to relocation and moving services.

The German language website complements a portfolio of websites in 4 languages (English, French, Spanish, Dutch) the company manages. "We are glad to offer our expertise in a 5th language now and deepen our reach within the various national communities of expatriates. We will work hard to bring the best information on destinations and available services and products to German expats to help them make informed decisions," says Francois Deschamps, co-founder, ExpatRatgeber.com.

The large population of German nationals abroad is mainly caused by an export oriented economy back home that leverages on a large network of overseas German companies' branches and offices. As exports constitute about 45 percent of the country's economy, Germany has seen more and more managers participate in the export strategy by accepting assignments abroad as well as a younger generation now looking for the international experience.

"Advertisers are organizing their reach towards this population and we are glad to put our expertise toward helping them better service this niche population. As we have been providing tailored expat services for years, we are pleased to welcome the German speaking population to these services," says Sebastian Deschamps co-founder and director of ExpatRatgeber.com.

The new internet portal also offers free articles and guides as well as a social community of hundreds of German expat bloggers sharing their experience.

The new Facebook Platform application builds on the interaction of Facebook users to collect price data in their city of residence and compare its cost of living with friends in an informative and fun environment. A survey conducted by ExpatFinder.com with over 300 expatriate Facebook users revealed that 65.3% considered it “extremely important” to learn about the accommodation costs before relocating to the destination city.

Singapore -- (SBWIRE) -- 08/08/2011 -- Interexpat Pte. Ltd., the Singapore headquartered internet services company today launched http://apps.facebook.com/costofliving/, a new application built directly upon the Facebook Platform to access and engage the 700 million Facebook users in building and using the largest collaborative database of prices around the world.

The survey, conducted on hundreds of expatriate Facebook users, highlighted the need for access to information regarding cost of housing and transportation first and foremost. Food prices and entertainment were considered very important for over 45% of respondents. The in-depth survey also highlighted that 49% of respondents were ready to pay for a cost of living analysis before relocating.

This newly developed innovation highlights the continuous research and development (R&D) efforts within Interexpat Pte. Ltd. to help better support expatriates and those relocating around the world: "After creating the first expat virtual relocation service through the 3D virtual world Twinity recently, we wanted to tap into our vast social media reach to develop a new tool for expats around the world, and based on the Facebook survey we conducted, we knew where we needed to put our efforts." said Francois Deschamps, co-founder, ExpatFinder.com.

Cost of living data is central to a successful relocation, but available resources are often fragmented, pricey, outdated or inaccurate. The free Facebook Application will help collect and share relevant data and evolve over time to cover more products and services.

The successful launch of this new Facebook Platform Application underlines the multi channel reach that ExpatFinder.com has built over time, through social media, emailing and offline events. "It is certainly a good way for us not only to build a useful and free tool for our users but also to showcase the expertise of the team in understanding the market's needs. We are able to offer much more than a multiple website reach, we are bridging the gaps left from using websites only and bringing new solutions directly to our clients with cross channel engagements and conversions." said Sebastien Deschamps, CEO ExpatFinder.com.

The new one-stop website offers a place to answer the needs of a growing population of Spanish expatriates fleeing high unemployment rates at home and looking to benefit from the globalization of the market for foreign talents. The Internet portal helps users save time and money by comparing a wide range of products and services in four key channels anywhere around the world: Housing, Insurance, Finance and Relocation.

Singapore -- (SBWIRE) -- 04/08/2011 -- Interexpat Pte. Ltd., the Singapore headquartered Internet services company today launched http://www.MundoExpat.com a new internet portal targeting Spanish nationals preparing for expatriation or already living or working abroad.
