We're Internet Marketing Specialists
We understand websites.
We understand search programs and Google ads.
We understand social media – Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, TripAdvisor, Yelp and more.
We use this knowledge to create low cost, highly effective ad campaigns to help you sell your own tickets.
Marketing Your Business Has Changed
It’s a whole new game
Numbers
Based on current bookings, estimates for the 2024 tourist season predict 30-40% of last year’s visitors.
Demographics
Visitors are mostly from the mainland west coast, and appear to be more affluent.
Opportunities
Booking agents are unable to meet the requests for private, sanitized vehicle transportation.
Demand
Boats report greatly increased demand for private charters.
Stop Losing Customers
If your website isn’t optimized for mobile you’re losing business. If you’re not advertising online, you’re losing business. Facebook and Instagram ads generate as much sales revenue as Google ads. Every business in the world is now attracting and servicing customers in new ways.
Buying Patterns
During the shutdown people became much more comfortable with searching and buying online, and that will continue.
People are spending more time on social media, and are more comfortable buying on those platforms.
Mobile Friendly
This year 78% of the visitors to activity websites are on their cell phones. How does your website look on a phone?
Try it vertically and horizontally. Is everything there? Do the menus, links and shopping cart work correctly? If you’re selling something on your site you should go through a complete transaction.
Polished
A modern, professional website with good grammar, spelling and punctuation gives consumers confidence in your business.
Change, Change, Change
More sanitizing. More personal space. Crowd avoidance. More private charters and tours. More carryout food. More upscale rental cars. Lower sales volumes. These are all part of business this season.
