Many members have asked for a resource to help them get their businesses online - fast, easy and affordably. We are very pleased to announce we have licensed the easiest and best website builder available for exclusive use of our members. How do we know this is the best? We run and manage five sites here, and were one of the earliest “pioneers” of the online travel industry. We have been researching custom web sites for over two years now and when we discovered this program we were convinced it would do wonders for our members. So convinced we decided to build the Goexperience.com web site off the same platform. With this builder by your side, you will have no more excuses for not having a website. If you already have a web site, most likely it’s clumsy, out-of-date and expensive to operate. You’ll find the GO member web site program to be a refreshing alternative. Our GO member custom web site program includes all the vital features your business needs to be successful online and is so affordable - less than $25.00 per month! Best of all it is so easy you don't need to have any programming or design experience to use it - if you can type a letter and click a mouse, you will be able to build a great website. Our custom web site builder includes everything your business needs: ecommerce, shopping cart, newsletter, domain name, catalog, photo album, maps, customer feedback forms, links pages, over 400 templates, email, easy web page editor, order tracking, coupons, and more! Over the next few weeks we will be rolling out details on this new program, so stay tuned. In the meantime, start thinking about how you can better communicate with your existing customer and the new ones you can capture when you become part of the $48 billion online travel industry. Jeff Gayduk Our Next Teleconference Our next teleconference will be held on Friday, August 27, at 1PM Eastern time. The session will be led by Mike Marchev from GO. We had earlier announced that the program would be on the GO Group Cruise Program. It won’t be. As these things go, although we have reached agreement with a company to provide this program, they don’t have all their ducks in order yet and are in fact reprogramming their booking platform as we speak. What we are going to go over are the details of our new One-rate Group Travel Insurance Program. You have asked that we develop this to allow you to pre-package insurance into your tours and cruises without having to go through the hassle of getting a quote. We have this in place now. There is no charge, but you must register at www.goexperience.com. If you are unable to attend, the CD will be available for sale in the GO Books and CDs section for $12. Do a Friend a Favor If you know of another group travel planner who would benefit from GO membership, please let them know about us. It will help the organization, and therefore you, to do so. Why? Because the greater collective buying power we have, the better deals we will be able to make with our vendors. And because the best way to build membership is by your recommendation. GO Road Shows We are planning two different traveling seminars for late ’04 – early ’05. These will involve a familiarization trip combined with educational seminars and a mini-trade show. These will be primarily for GO members, but available seats will also be offered to prospective members at a higher price. Watch for them! If you have any suggestions for me on improving GO services, please drop me an email at johnk@premiertourismmarketing.com. Thanks and have a great day!
