Tours Partners in Promotion eTeamNews — July, 2011 |  |

| I
wanted to share a successful summer promotion
story with you. I have been working with a group
who will join Mayflower Tours in December on our
Tournament of Roses Parade holiday. Earlier this
year we held a presentation and just recently
decided to do a second presentation. What a success!
Both travelers who had already made their reservations
and travelers who had not yet made their reservations
attended. It was great to see this mix as those
who had already made their reservations were great
leaders in getting their peers to make their travel
plans and all excited one another for their December
tour.
Summer
is the perfect time to hold a second presentation,
execute another mailing or send another email.
At Mayflower Tours, we’re finding that travelers
are booking later and some travelers need to see
the product multiple times before making their
final decision on their reservation.
Here
are just a few ideas of how to take
advantage of summer promotions for your groups: |
 |
Turn
to Mayflower Tours as your Partner in Promotion.
I can provide you with a number of ideas on
how to promote your groups for selling success! |
 |
Promote
your group travel at summer events, community
picnics and festivals. As a trade out, give
the festival a free day trip or a gift certificate
to raffle off – they’ll give you
a booth to promote your trips AND exposure! |
 |
Schedule
a travel presentation for your group of travelers.
If you’ve already had a presentation,
hold a second presentation! Tell your travelers
to bring their family and friends! You’re
sure to get more travelers booked - Contact
me for fun presentation ideas! |
 |
Send
a mailing to your travelers! Include a personalized
message asking them to join you on your tour. |
 |
Send
an email to your travelers! Tell them fun
and exciting facts about your destination. |
 |
Always
follow up with your travelers – ask
if they have any questions. |
 |
And,
last but not least, offer your travelers this
special savings! Nobody can resist a fantastic
deal! |
