Good afternoon,

My name is Olmo from the Netherlands and I run a travel agency. Would there be any other PD-users with a similar occupation be interested in some brainstorming in how we can make use of PD in the best possible way. I'm facing several challenges (and I might be able to help you out on others):

  • A 'large' (?) number of incoming leads (this can be 10-20 per day), how to keep that structured? Many of them will also be 'very cold' leads
  • In general: how do you go about with sending reminders to leads (after no or one contact moment but no further reaction from their side?)
  • PD apparently is working on a better email-automation tool. I would love to send automated emails based on a 'date field' (the period of their holiday, 1 week before departure etc.). How do others go about with this?

Possibly I would have some tips to make your life easier and there are still tons of improvements on our side as well which I didn't mention here.

Let's connect!

Cheers, Olmo van Beurden, SurfaWhile/Coconut Travel Collective

    @Mike van der Valk is this posted in the correct way in order to attract some engagement (e.g. 'topics'?)

    Hi @Coconut Travel Collective , thank you for your post!

    If you're looking for other travel businesses based in the Netherlands then I recommend you post it in the Nederland channel. If not, then you're all good!

    I took the liberty of adding the "tips and tricks" topic to your post, I think it might be useful. 🙂

    Thank you very much! International would be fine, that's why I also wrote it in English :) Thanks for your help Inês!

    @Mike van der Valk @Coconut Travel Collective Hi guys! We do not have a customer from the travel industry but exactly these needs are very common all over all industries. 10-20 (very) cold leads per day are not that much and everybody has "no response" leads. If you want I can show you next week in an online session, how our customers are dealing with it. Would you please send me an email with your contact details to bernd.auer@pd-experts.com? I'll send you some time proposals for an online meeting.

    Nothing :-( I'll sent an email to the iXXo@ leaXXXXXXile.com. Obviously, the XXs are to hide the correct address, but you will know if it is correct, right? :-)
