Looking Ahead: Post-Trip, Pre-Planning Personalization

11:30 Going Beyond Booking: Personalizing The Experience

Planning the perfect trip is about more than the price of a room. Most companies take a one size fits all approach to travel, showing you a generic list of hotels or things to do in your city that are popular with the masses. Gogobot sees the world differently. On Gogobot it's easy to see personalized results that are tailored to your needs. If you're an Adventure and Business Tribe member, you probably want to see a completely different group of places to stay, eat and play than, say, someone who is a Family Tribe member. During this session, Travis shows you how to:
• Give potential customers the right information at the right time, without them ever having to leave your site.
• Learn how to provide your guests with memorable experiences during their trip and how to increase engagement with your customers.
• Help customers know they’re making the right decision when they book by providing them with great concierge-like recommendations on the perfect places to eat, stay and play while they are in town.
