Travel and Hotel Internet Marketing via Pinterest

The popular social sharing network Pinterest is one of the fastest growing internet properties on the web, helping businesses and companies gain more exposure and increase sales online.  What about for the hospitality industry?  How can hotel and travel businesses reap the benefits of Pinterest?

The opportunities are definitely there.  Users pin and repin beautiful images of desired travel locations and places they would like to visit.  Pinterest is an inspirational board, a wish board, for many of its users.  Travel/Vacation/Places I Would Love to Visit type boards are one of the most common and popular boards that users create and repeatedly pin images onto. For hotel businesses, uploaded images and videos of peoples’ dream vacations can easily be linked to their hotel website.  Boards can also be used to engage users, i.e., guest events, special promotions, vacation packages, etc.  Promotional package pins can even be directed to booking engines to boost sales.  Travel and tourism businesses should not miss out on this unique new internet marketing strategy to promote themselves and drive sales.
