Welcome!

• Want more group referrals to your business?

• Want groups, tour operators, meeting planners, etc. to

book with you directly without having to pay any fees

or commissions?

If you said YES, then you need to join

Group Travel Odyssey!

Research:

• Recently, the Student Youth Travel Association (SYTA)

concluded a study and found that only 35% of SMERF

groups actually employ the services of tour operators.

• Meeting planners are also seeing a trend of

corporations, associations, etc. trying to book their

own travel plans via the Internet.

• There isn’t one website that has everything these

groups need all in one place to book their complete

trip itinerary!

• Currently, there are a hodge-podge of websites that

specialize in providing the user with supplier

information, but only in one supplier category.

Problems:

• This forces the user to browse multiple sites, costing

them both time and money!

Problems:

• Frustrating to anyone who attempts to book group

travel online!
