When we startedย the Family Travel Host USA a whileย back, it was toย help families who love to travel find vacation destinations and family vacation spots they would actually enjoy visiting with their own families. It was, and still is, my intention to test the waters so to speak, and visit certain areas and post my findings about it. Because I wear many hats, have a family of my own and a business to run, it is not always easy doing what I love best.
The new year has arrived and we are making amends and adding many new vacation destinations for yor enjoyment.
We are working on setting up a FACEBOOK, TWITTER, LINKEDIN, PINTEREST, TUMBLR and an INSTAGRAM accounts for TFH this month.
I started FTH website back in 2011 but printed a monthly tabloid before that for a couple of years (before the Internet!
Email marketing is one of our primary sources of promotion.ย
I really do not have any accurate data on the demographics of our readers, but from years of experience and knowing who advertises with us, I have a pretty good idea it is families with and without children between the ages of 23 through 55 โ parents with children of all ages and couples without children who love to travel. My motto for the website back when I first started it was kid tested and kid approved! Now it’s family tested and family approved. My children are grown now and when I travel, a lot of times one or two grand kids are always with me. We don’t cater to the senior group unless they love to travel and have grand kids in tow.
We added B & B’s because I personally have a special interest in them myself and love staying every chance I get without the grand kids! … pampering myself, so to speak and enjoying ‘me’ time when I need a break from family… What woman wouldn’t love this? Especially one who has family and needs a little relaxation often…
So, that’s it in a nutshell. family travel is what the Family Travel Host is all about.
Travelling is expensive – when I go on a journey, because of the expenses involved, I have to make every penny count. So do most of you. In the weeks to come I will do my best to bring to you vacation ideas that you can afford – that has been family tested and approved – to the best of my ability.
In the weeks to follow, I will be looking for unique and affordable vacation ideas for all of you who love to travel with your family.
