TECHNOLOGY APPLICATIONS FOR TRAVELUCION
19
U.S. change in policy toward Cuba and dissipating travel restrictions eventually allowing the average American to travel to Cuba Americans represent 34% of visitors to Travelucion’s websites yet they account for less than 3% of the
company’s revenue; if travel restrictions are lifted and assuming a more consistent conversion rate as seen with visitors from other nations, Travelucion could see a significant increase in sales very shortly after the restrictions are lifted
Enhance the corporate profile of the company though marketing Focus marketing in North America to cater to Canadian and American travelers Establish relationships/partnerships with large North American travel and cruise line companies
Build upon Cuban Entrepreneur rules
GDS (Amadeus) incorporation for central booking
Increase marketing budget through additional online advertising (online spending on content and/or pay-per-click) as well as sales team
Overhaul/modernize the websites that currently generate over 30 million page views a year; leverage this to drive volume to the booking platform to monetize this traffic
Continue to build on current 150 private home (Casa Particulars) rental listings using a model similar to that of AirBNB and HomesAway, as well as taxi/historic private car service
