Small and midsize travel agents
We help to market destinations for travel agencies. Saving the time and money to do it themselves
Smaller companies see marketing; website and social media as a cost and problem instead of an opportunity.
We provide comprehensive destination management services. Through market research and goal-oriented strategies, we equip small to midsize travel agents with the necessary resources to effectively promote destinations, thereby saving them time and money spent on marketing efforts themselves.

For this startup, Artificial Intelligence and Social Media algorithms are crucial technologies.

Is our goal in the next 3 years
My key role is the Minimum Viable Product creator and I'm responsible for developing a simplified version of our product to test its market viability.
AI developers to implement tools to develop and management solutions. Content creators to create and manage content. Social media and website managers to keep Brands updated.
While my Destination Management Company is innovative, potential indirect competitors could be event planning agencies or travel agencies as they also offer tailored experiences. However, our unique selling proposition gives us an edge in the market.
Our unique selling point is a single brand identity per destination, translating our specialisation into dedicated websites and social media platforms. Each brand encapsulates one location, underscoring us as distinctive specialists in the travel landscape.
We take a 6% fee from the outbound agents and bookings generated from the websites we run. Additional 3% from the destination management companies that provide the destination management services
We've evolved from exclusively catering to Destination Management Companies, now broadening our scope to provide brand solutions for outbound travel agents as well.
Within the initial year, we are primed for the successful launch of our pioneering 30 brands. The progress is promising and on track with our strategic growth plan.
Our startup is profiting from two primary sources: Destination Management Companies (DMCs) and outbound agents. Both revenue streams help us foster steady growth, invest in product development, and expand our market reach globally.
Post-pandemic, we've bootstrapped our way to stability with initial startup capital of SGD 100,000, solely invoicing DMCs for fees. Today, we stand debt-free and operational efficiency.

The primary risks include potential fluctuations in the tourism industry, maintaining up-to-date information about all destinations and ensuring successful collaborations with a diverse range of local partners. Furthermore, technical failures or security breaches could pose significant threats to our platform's effectiveness and reputation.
