Challenges

Travelsphere faced several challenges in managing their trade agent communications:

  • No centralised resources: Resources were scattered across various platforms, leading to inefficiencies.
  • Lack of dynamic communications: Communications were static and not tailored to individual agents’ needs.
  • No segmentation of agent partners: There was no segmentation of their agent partners, resulting in generic communication.
  • Limited visibility: They lacked visibility of how each partner engaged with them, making it difficult to tailor strategies effectively.
