TravelAlberta 2010 - Practical Strategies for Using Social Media in Your Tour...Stephen Joyce
Have wondered why social media works the way it does and why it has penetrated almost every aspect of our on-line lives. In this presentation I demystify social media, show you the fallacies and the hype but also present you with a clear and simple to use strategy for starting or improving your social media strategy. In order to success you must L.E.A.D. (Listen, Engage, Articulate, and Demonstrate).
The world of online travel has changed dramatically over the years. Suppliers have moved away from traditional distribution in order to sell directly to consumers. Distribution companies have purchased online travel agencies in order to control sales and distribution. Traditional travel agencies have lost out to consolidation and the seemingly endless marketing budgets of the large OTAs. But now we are beginning to see some new phenomena appear. Travelers are asking more questions, doing more research, and taking their time as they find products and destinations that meet their specific needs.
One of the largest and most influential spheres of online research is the blogging community. As a travel technologist and a proponent of non-traditional product distribution, I am intrigued by the power of user generated content. Recent research shows that peer reviews have a dramatic effect on how travelers make travel buying decisions. More than ever, travelers are relying on the opinions of peers, non-commercial writers, and the average passenger, rather than relying on the recommendations of agents, commercial writers, or corporate marketers. By examining these travel & tourism technology trends we can better understand how user generated content, social media, and peer reviews impact e-tourism globally and how to use these emerging trends to the benefit of our organizations.
Tips from the T-List brings together the collective intelligence of dozens of influential travel industry bloggers from around the World. The blogs and the authors that are represented in this book are recognized online resources; they are the people the industry turns to for advice, recommendations, tips, and insider knowledge. By sharing their experience with you, these authors are providing you with an opportunity to embrace e-tourism in a new way. My hope is that this book will provide you with inspiration and insights that help your e-tourism efforts flourish.
Using Social Media Techniques to Improve Customer ConversionStephen Joyce
In this presentation I discuss techniques for using social media to improve your on-line customer conversion. I first discuss the customer conversion process and how it applies to the travel purchase life cycle and then apply some real-life examples of how to improve customer conversion by using social media including blogs, flickr, youtube, and twitter.

Engaging the Long Tail -Part One - FACVBStephen Joyce
An overview of the long tail of travel and travel social media. You\'ll get some insight into what makes social media work, why it has caught on, and how you can use these new tools and technologies to promote your destination.
Social media and user generated content is changing the way the landscape for online travelers. More travelers are relying on the advice and recommendations of fellow travelers over professional marketers. Destinations, travel providers, and agents all need to be aware of these trends and adapt their online marketing appropriately. This presentation is a brief overview of the why social media is so powerful and effective and how you, as a marketer, can start taking advantage of this powerful trend.

6. The Opportunity
There are hundreds of thousands of destination
activity & tour operators who do not sell on-line or
distribute their products electronically. This
inventory is valued in the Billions of dollars.
7. The Goal
To build a system that would provide small
businesses with the tools to manage their inventory,
bookings, customer data, and distribution with the
same or better sophistication then airlines and
hotels.
8. The Supplier
Challenge
Small Businesses
Single Owner/Operator
No formal business background
Little or no best practices
Little or no cash/capital for technology
10. The Distribution
Challenge
Small businesses individually hold very little
inventory and are too volatile for a distributor to
create one-on-one relationships. Distributors
need economies of scale.
12. Hear
What suppliers say
Their products are unique or too specialized.
Their accounting is unique.
Their relationships are unique.
Their businesses are too complex for a system.
They don't need any more bookings.
13. Listen
What suppliers mean
They don't have a standard for structuring products.
They don't have a standard system for accounting.
They sell to & through whoever they can.
They don't have the tools to understand their business.
They can't handle more bookings.
14. When it comes to running their business, many
are lost in a forest of their own creation.
15. Engage
What do suppliers need
They need to standardize their product structure.
They need to consolidate their marketing content.
They need tools to tell them how they are doing.
They need access to distribution.
They need to best business practices.
They need simplicity not complexity.
16. Lead
Helping Suppliers Succeed
Provide tools that are simple to use.
Provide standards that suppliers can follow.
Educate suppliers on best practices.
Make it easy for suppliers to distribute.
Charge based on performance.
17. Lead
Helping Suppliers Succeed
… by empowering them with
the knowledge to improve their
business practices and the
tools that simplify their
business processes.
18. Industry Opportunity
DMOs & CVBs
Destinations need content and products from suppliers to market.
Many RMOs/DMOs need new ways to generate revenue.
DMOs/RMOs are trusted partners.
New technologies provide access to data without high cost.
19. Industry Opportunity
Travel retailers
Retailers want access to high margin product.
Viator was pioneer, now comes isango!, Expedia, and Travelocity.
Managing destination product is time consuming and labourious.
Retailers need tools that allow for supplier self-management.
20. Industry Opportunity
Trip Planning & Other sites
These site provide services for free and need to monetize
Aggregating suppliers is not their business.
Destination product is exciting and feeds the planning process.
These sites have traffic but little to no revenue conversion.
21. Power of the Crowd (SaaS)
Rich Media support
740+ Geolocation
XML API
Suppliers Mobile Check-in
Access to distribution
Channel Management
Reduced costs
22. Change that impacts the
industry
Destinations have access to supplier data for their regions.
Agents/Distributors/Resellers have access to new product.
Suppliers increase revenue & pay on performance.
