Marketing Manager
Prior to Your Travel, my career spanned the fashion and alcohol industries. For me, the travel industry was a natural fit to start a new chapter. Travel plays a large part of my personal life and I strive to explore even more of the world. As a former entrepreneur myself, and having previously nurtured my own brand, I could immediately relate to Sam and John. I understood their passion and dedication for their business and knew instantly that I wanted to contribute to their exciting, growing business.
Personally, I tend to lean towards city or adventure breaks. Cities I have fallen in love with include Hong Kong, Vienna and Seville. In the near future I am contemplating either Rio, Singapore, Vancouver or New York! My dream is to spend 6 weeks island hopping in the Philippines. Here I would like to tick off the 7 Falls Zip Line from my bucket list, and the over water bungalows in El Nido. For good measure I would probably also throw in a skydive and a hike up one of the active volcanoes.

Creative Resins has been at the forefront of decorative glass technology for over 30 years. When Louise contacted us to help with a trip to Oman, we discovered that the company had been using an airline’s website to book direct, paying in excess of £5,000 per trip in Business Class. Using our negotiated fares on this one flight YourTravel saved over £1000 per trip. Upon further investigation and a year’s great relationship, we delved into the companies travel policies and booking habits. We found that travel was often booked at the last minute and there was no one in authority to keep a watchful eye over what was being booked and where. We then worked with Louise to create passenger profiles for all of Creative Resins travellers including details such as preferred seat numbers, meals and airlines – we also set in place cabin restrictions (who can and can’t travel in an upgraded travel class). We then looked at the company’s calendar for the coming year, estimating when and where they would need to book travel and agreed that Your Travel would be proactive in trying to get confirmed travel dates from 4 weeks prior to the trip dates. This created a stress-free booking system that took budget and organisational pressure from the senior management, knowing they would always be working with a cost-effective travel budget. This lead to a reduced travel spend of just over 16% without cost-cutting and maintaining a high level of service.
‘’Working with Your Travel Corporate has been an enlightening experience, we were wasting money on travel and working with John and the team was very easy indeed. Everything is taken care of on every trip and we get a level of service that just can’t be achieved by the bigger travel agents, being treated as a valued client and not just another customer is fantastic!’’ Louise Bollom, Director
