Marking a milestone in the return of travel, Ensemble Travel Group has published its first print publication since the start of the pandemic - Extraordinary Experiences.
According to the company, the relaunch of the magazine with the 68-page Spring 2022 issue serves as another marketing tool for Ensemble members to reconnect with their clients after the long pause in travel. As part of Ensemble’s marketing program and objectives to help members move forward and restart their businesses, the magazine boasts a new modern design intended to appeal to the luxury market. It also offers members the opportunity to personalize the magazine including the option to customize both covers with their own logos, add custom messaging or add personalized QR codes to increase traffic to their website.
Members who are enrolled in a print marketing program also have access to the full library of digital publications to enhance their ability to connect with existing clients as well as to acquire new ones.
“We are so excited to share this issue with our members as we know they have been working so hard to stay connected with their clients throughout the pandemic,” said Todd Hutzulak, Executive Director of Marketing for Ensemble Travel Group. “While we continued to publish digitally during the last two years, this issue represents so much more than just the return of a print magazine but also the hope and excitement about the return of travel along with the anticipation of helping clients fulfill their dreams to get back out there again after a very long pause.”
Made for travellers seeking "one-of-a-kind" experiences, this edition features stories about hidden gems as well as some iconic tourism destinations including stories on Oman, Italy, New Zealand, Easter Island and Japan, as well as on luxury cruising. The issue also focuses on the personal impact travel can have with writers sharing their thoughts and feelings about the places and travel experiences that have left an impression on them.
“As we see the end in sight, we need and want to make travel tactile again - a brochure or a magazine that allows you to dream about travel as you read the stories and are inspired by the images,” said Lesley Keyter, Founder and CEO of Calgary-based The Travel Lady.
In keeping with Ensemble’s commitment to sustainability, the magazine’s printer participates in PrintReleaf - a program that guarantees every sheet of paper used within the production of a printed project will be reforested. Specific to the printing of Extraordinary Experience, 66 trees will be planted in a selected reforestation project.
