BranchUp and Virgin Voyages Add Seamless Lead Generation and Booking for Travel Advisors

 

March 19, 2025 – Vancouver, BC and Plantation, FL – BranchUp, the leading provider of free social media  marketing solutions for Travel Advisors, has partnered with Virgin Voyages to introduce a  seamless booking integration with the cruise line’s LetsGoBook platform.  

 

Through BranchUp’s automated marketing, Virgin Voyages’ compelling offers are posted directly  to Facebook with links to the Advisor’s personalized landing page, which also connects to their  unique LetsGoBook site. This innovation enables the Advisors clients to explore and book Virgin  Voyages itineraries with ease while maintaining the booking through their trusted Travel Advisor. 

 

“Our mission is to connect Suppliers, Travel Advisors, and Travelers by providing an innovative  marketing system that drives results,” said Michael Drever, CEO and Founder of BranchUp.  “This partnership with Virgin Voyages perfectly aligns with that goal, allowing Advisors to  harness the power of social media for lead generation while providing a seamless and  personalized booking experience for their clients.”

 

The partnership offers numerous benefits to Travel Advisors: 

No Cost, All Gain – The platform is completely free, providing a powerful tool for lead  generation without any financial investment. 

Intelligent Automation – BranchUp manages content distribution, automatically posting  enticing Virgin Voyages offers on behalf of Advisors. 

Personalized Client Experience – Each post directs clients to the Advisor’s  LetsGoBook page, which is branded specifically for them and offers the option to either  contact the Advisor directly or complete the booking online. 

Increased Earning Potential – Advisors earn 16% commission on voyage fares and  10% on most pre-voyage bookables, making this partnership a lucrative opportunity. 

 

Virgin Voyages has been a strong supporter of the Travel Advisor community and is excited to  expand its partnership with BranchUp. 

 

West De Leon, Manager Trade Marketing at Virgin  Voyages, shared his enthusiasm: “We’ve had a fantastic relationship with BranchUp in  supporting our North American First Mates, and this latest collaboration is a game-changer.  We’re thrilled to offer Advisors a simple, effective way to grow their business and connect more  travelers with the elevated Virgin Voyages experience.”
