New support service offerings make it easier for travel
services to generate additional revenue streams
Toronto, ON (January 31, 2005) - Roadpost Inc., a leader of global voice
and data communications solutions for the international traveller, has put the
finishing touches on a new and enhanced travel partner program designed to
increase sales and generate revenues for travel services. Enhanced offerings in
the program - which include added Web-based support, email links and improved
reporting options - have been designed to take much of the legwork work out of
promoting product and collecting commission revenues for travel services.
Morris Shawn, president and CEO of Roadpost, explains, "We have had a long and
successful relationship with our key travel partners and are committed to
delivering innovative services that provide additional revenue channels and add
value for their customers. Our programs have proven highly successful over the
years. With the new enhancements we've added, there has already been
significant growth in partner participation. Many more are realizing that
having international cellular and other related programs that complement
existing travel services allows them to provide more complete offerings to
travellers."
In addition to competitive commission structures, new program features include a
free "landing page" that includes a cookie with the partner's logo to allow
customers to order Roadpost products or services online. This not only allows
for better tracking and increased online ordering activity, it also opens up
more communications opportunities with clients. Roadpost also provides links
for email confirmations and Web sites to familiarize agency sales
representatives with current offerings and assist in their sales efforts.
Customized reporting and messaging on customer invoices is also available.
The new travel partner program encompasses the full range of Roadpost products
and services, including international cellular and satellite subscription and
rental packages, as well as International BlackBerry and remote Internet access
communications services.
Shawn comments, "The evolution of this program came out of a commitment on the
part of Roadpost and partners to create stronger marketing vehicles and new
revenue opportunities. Through our collective efforts, we believe we have come
up with a strong suite of integrated marketing tools that add significant value
on all fronts."
