DRTV in the travel & tourism industry

The travel and tourism industry is expanding its advertising efforts with DRTV because of its wide reach, affordable rates, and traceable media.

Direct Response Television Advertising offers inexpensive media, compared to traditional advertising, and can be exploited in many different ways. Travel and tourism companies have caught on to this new form of advertising and are taking advantage of it. These companies are creating television commercials that drive viewers to call now for more information, to call and place reservations and to also log on and visit the company website. With more and more people having access to the internet, it makes perfect sense to put a website and email address on the DRTV commercial and have people check out the resort features online or visit the state tourism board to see what fun activities the state offers.

Although DRTV has previously been used to generate orders, the new possibility of getting leads is being explored, with success. DRTV is a cost effective way in which a campaign can be operated on a moderate budget and is one of the most effective ways to drive traffic to a travel & tourism website.
