Where to find travel agents in order to convert them to customers

The idea that helps Travel Agents

Travel Agents want to provide personalized travel recommendations. However, they can't get it because they struggle to keep up with evolving travel trends and customer preferences.

Therefore, they need to use your solution, e.g. TravelAssist.

TravelAssist: Personalized Travel Recommendations for Tour Operators : TravelAssist is an AI-powered platform that helps travel agents stay ahead of travel trends and deliver personalized recommendations to their customers. It enables tour operators to create customized itineraries based on individual preferences and interests. Of course it is much better than the stuff from TripAdvisor, Lonely Planet, or Viator!

How to find Travel Agents

You can get insights about the pain points of travel agents if you listen to them carefully, either in person or online. Listening online is much easier because you need not ask them for a customer interview but you can observe them talking about their problems, out there in their natural habitat. They won’t even notice that you are there, watching and listening to them.

The process, step by step

One process that we can totally recommend is this:

  • Find out where travel agents hang out (Reddit, Mastodon, etc.)
  • Read what problems they talk about, and how urgent they are to them. (Did they try any solutions, yet? Did they spend money on anything, yet? Did they even cobble a homegrown solution together?)
  • Enter the conversation: Help them with tips, ask more about their situation and why they are in pain.
  • If you find recurring questions or pet peeves of travel agents, create some helpful content for them (e.g. a blog post, a podcast episode, or a video) and share it with them for free, in the same conversations. They will be delighted.
  • At the end of the blog post, invite them to use your solution: TravelAssist: Personalized Travel Recommendations for Tour Operators.
