The Challenge

Establishing Digital Presence in a Competitive Travel Market

Competing with large online travel booking platforms that dominate search results and offer instant booking capabilities, while emphasizing the value of personalized travel planning services.

Referral System Integration

Creating an efficient booking system that seamlessly integrates referral codes, allowing customers to easily apply discounts while enabling Shop Getaways to track referral sources and maintain partner relationships.

Trust Building

Building trust with potential clients who might book high-value cruises and family vacations, requiring a professional online presence that instills confidence.

Local Market Reach

Attracting both local Klamath Falls customers and regional travelers seeking specialized cruise planning expertise while maintaining a strong local presence.
