How do you as a travel operator reach your customer when they’re in destination?
According to Google, 85% of leisure travelers decide on activities only after having arrived at their destination.
We have built a platform that combines SMS with our own AI-powered MOBILE ENGAGEMENT platform, tailor-made for travel companies to sell in-destination products to their customers.
Some powerful stats proving the strength of business-to-consumer text message communication:
• SMS open rates beat email by nearly 5x
• Response rates to SMS marketing are 7.5x higher than email
• 64% of consumers think companies who text value their time, are progressive and would recommend them to others
