If property groups weren’t already making the shift to podded, or cluster, sales teams, many TrueTour™ customers are quickly adjusting their sales structure due to current market demands. Many of these cluster sales teams work in remote offices offsite and are equipped to facilitate sales from a distance. These teams can handle sales for multiple properties and maintain high-level brand consistency. They require a portfolio of tools which are symbiotic and easily shareable, consumer-friendly and easy to use by a variety of customers – individual travelers, groups, planners, corporations and more.
To meet the growing needs of these podded teams, we’ve accelerated the release of a new TrueTour product which pulls resources and data from multiple TrueTours and puts it into one singular resource. Introducing the TrueTour HUB!

Imagine holding a small beacon in your pocket, which you have programmed with a powerful strategic message perfect for the environment you find yourself in – perhaps a trade show floor or a festival event.
With a single click, anyone within a 400 meter range of you receives your message on their phone, offering them something they can’t resist. Your message delights the audience and they appreciate the instant gratification of your offer.
Perhaps you’ve already experienced “proximity marketing.” Most likely if you’re a Starbucks fan, you’ve received a free drink for more than one happy hour occasion. Or perhaps you’ve walked into a store and been pinged about the 10% offer made just for you.
Proximity marketing is incredibly effective, and we are very close to being able to offer this technology to our members! Continue Reading…

Once a person sees what TrueTour is, and what it can do for any sales and marketing team, then the fun begins and the conversation is a bit like telling a child he will literally be meeting Santa any minute and can actually have every toy he wants. Really. Continue Reading…
