Challenges
Before working with Passport Creative, Humphrey did not have an online presence. This meant soliciting tours from tourists walking up to Fort Jesus or hoping for word-of-mouth references from past visitors.
Our Approach
Leveraging our brand development and digital marketing strengths, we put together a one-page tour guide website highlighting Humphrey’s two tours, complemented with the many photos he’s taken with his happy clients over the years (and their positive reviews).
Results
TripAdvisor Ranking: Humphrey Tours experienced a remarkable transformation on TripAdvisor. Starting from a low rank of 196th, the diligent efforts to enhance its online presence, gather positive reviews, and provide exceptional service led Humphrey Tours to achieve and maintain the coveted #1 position for more than two consecutive years.
Price Increase: Through strategic positioning, quality service, and improved reputation, Humphrey Tours was able to increase its tour prices by an impressive 50%. This increase was supported by the enhanced value perceived by customers due to its top-ranking status on TripAdvisor.
Conclusion
The collaboration with Humphrey Tours showcased the power of a strong online presence and reputation in the tourism industry. By starting from scratch and strategically implementing online marketing efforts, Humphrey Tours achieved exceptional results. The journey from a lack of online visibility to becoming the #1 tour provider on TripAdvisor, along with a significant price increase, demonstrates the effectiveness of a well-executed digital strategy.
