Do you want to access 70+ million consumers – 53% in the USA and 47% international, all of which have subscribed to receive information about general and specific travel opportunities and information?

This amazing new TravelMole consumer email activity includes a range of opportunities, including:

Dedicated emails

One of the most effective ways to brand and promote is through dedicated emails, which can include run-of-list or targeted by interest, originating point, destination, marital status, etc.) and will be solely dedicated to your product.

You determine which market you wish to reach geographically and/or by interest, originating point, destination, marital status, etc.) or just go on a ‘run-of-the-list’ basis(Sample emails 1, 2, 3,4, 5,…).
