ELECTRONIC GUIDES > Like many products that come
to market, Joe's guides resulted from a frustration. - Every
time Joe would plan one of his ballpark trips he could never find all the planning information he wanted to in one place.
Some had good ballpark planning information, but lacked sufficient travel planning details, or vice versa. - Solution? Joe decided to combine his two passions – baseball and travel
– into comprehensive and easy-to-use electronic guides! - What makes Joe’s electronic guides the best product to plan a ballpark
trip? In short, it’s the ability to instantly access only the information you need to plan any ballpark trip at anytime
– right at your fingertips – from an actual ballpark’s details to any travel issues. - Because these are electronic guides, you are always armed with the latest information – unlike guides at the
local bookstore that are often outdated! Example: so say you’re planning a trip to see a couple of ballparks in
the Midwest. Even if you’ve been to the Midwest before and have a good lay of the land, as well as information on the
ballparks you want to see, the task of planning a trip that maximizes the limited time you may have is still quite daunting.
Where do you start mapping your schedule, booking the best airline reservations, rental car reservations, hotel reservations,
buying great seats to the ballgame and much more? HOW
TO USE JOE'S GUIDES - Use the guides’ easy-to-use ‘Bookmarks’ to quickly hop to a particular part
of the country or team (instead of having to scroll past endless pages). - View your options on how to secure airline,
rental car and hotel reservations to that area or city right for you – then book them, using the Web links inside the
guide that take you directly to the deal right for you. - Discover whether you need to buy tickets in advance at a particular
ballpark using the guides' customizable links to every team – or whether you can save money on the surcharges and buy
day of game at the box office. - Receive tips on saving money on parking, local attractions and much, much more.
WHAT EACH GUIDE INCLUDES - Current and up-to-date information on getting
the best bang for your buck on seating options/tickets, parking, securing free autographs and a whole lot more, plus unique
historical information on the venue. - When and where are the unique pre-game traditions and
photo opportunities? - Where are the best sports restaurants and bars? - Nearby golf courses to hit the links? - Attractions,
unique haunts, hidden gems and off the beaten path adventures? -
Buy tickets
for a particular sporting event using the guides' customizable links – or whether Joe suggests you save money on the
surcharges and buy day of game at the box office or how to successfully negotiate with a scalper. - Instantly view your options on how to secure the best airline, rental
car and hotel reservations to your destination – then book it, using the customized Web links inside the guide that
take you to the right deal. - Tips on saving money on parking, local attractions
and much, much more, including local sports-related museums and roadside attractions, plus sports-themed restaurants and sports
bars. - Anyone who buys Joe's guides receives free e-mail advice
