Hi Richard, I just have to share…the
response to our inclusion in Treasure
Chest this fall has really been fan-
tastic. We definitely surpassed our
ROI expectations by closing a good
bit of business and are actually still
getting inquiries off of it. Additionally,
we are now marketing to those that
expressed interest and are seeing a
good return there as well. Now I see
why/how you “guaranteed results”!
We would really like to partner with
some of your cruise lines and be
the Call To Action on their inserts.
Look forward to the next mailing.
Thanks a million!
Cruise Planners, American Express
The overall results to date from
the current Spring Treasure Chest
mailing are excellent…record level…
strong ROI! You were right…con-
ducting the match back against our
reservations booked made total
sense to validate this advertising.
Also, I am delighted to hear about
the increased circulation.
The Breakers
Before the campaign you thought it
might drive 3k to 4k bookings. It was
more than that.
The Venetian
Richard, the result of this last
mailing was just brilliant. The mo-
mentum we have built surpassed
our highest expectations. It was
more than double what we have
ever achieved in the past. Thank
you for being easy to work with,
very professional, a man of your
word and willing to work with us
to achieve the best result possible.
We have worked together for over
13 years now and your passion
for your brand and the support of
ours has never wavered. Thank
you for helping to grow our great
brand as one of the world’s great-
est vacations.Cunard North America
