Keeping your guests connected with Away Together featuring Melanie Brewer CEO & Co Founder, John Beuchert COO co-founder.
This week Chris talks to the founders of Away Together, Melanie Brewer CEO, Co Founder & John Beuchert COO co-founder, all the way from Pennsylvania, USA.What is Away Together?
"In 2018, on a very much needed trip to the Caribbean, we found ourselves in the midst of a tropical storm. It was during that storm, that Away Together was created. We soon realised that there was no platform that allowed for safe communication between all of the interesting people we met on the trip. Away Together was born."
During the chat we discuss:
- The inception of Away Together, drawn on a back of a napkin in a tropical storm!
- Being founders as husband and wife , with non tech backgrounds, makes for a very refreshing change!
- Attempting to build an app on their own.....then paying someone else to do it!
- Keeping guests connected to each other and the property they are staying in.
- Secure communication, geo fenced enabling groups and individuals to get the most out of their stay
- That 72 % of travelling guests want to immerse themselves in the local culture, and how Away Together can help expedite that process so you dont miss out and don't waste precious holiday hours searching.
- Driving revenue for property owners and saving costs through Away Together, promoting events, seasonal menus changes & ridding of poor communication across the resort, NO MORE PAPER NOTICES!
- That 92% of travellers understand when problems happen, but not when communication is then carried out poorly, Away Together is fixing that.
- Booking my trip to Pennsylvania....but avoiding the winter!!And much more.......
