Sachlav Tour Advisor is a leading tour organizer offering services around the globe. Sachlav sought to generate new leads, connect directly with their target market (young adults 18-25) and increase sales and revenue; however, their website alone did not support their goals. The site didn’t effectively drive traffic or provide an opportunity to continue relationships with potential customers after the initial point of contact. The national tour advisor chose to utilize Facebook to overcome these challenges and reach its goals.

National Tour Advisor Seeks To Increase Traffic & Revenue from Social Media & Mobile
CHALLENGE
Sachlav Tour Advisor is a leading tour organizer offering services around the globe. Sachlav sought to
generate new leads, connect directly with their target market (young adults 18-25) and increase sales and
revenue; however, their website alone did not support their goals. The site didn’t effectively drive traffic or
provide an opportunity to continue relationships with potential customers after the initial point of contact. The
national tour advisor chose to utilize Facebook to overcome these challenges and reach its goals.
GOALS
• Improve Sachlav Tour Advisor brand awareness
• Increase traffic and generate more leads
• Maximize sales and revenue
METHOD
50% of consumers value a Business’s Facebook Page more than its Website (Lab42), and 90% of all

to harness the power of Facebook and mobile via Zibaba’s all-in-one social and mobile platform.

ACHIEVEMENTS
• More than 100% increase in online sales

$22,000 in sales.

• Increase in traffic to Sachlav Tour Advisor website & local
offices

to other channels
After realizing the need to be present on
Facebook in order to better connect with
our customers and strengthen our
relationships with them, we set out to
acquire new leads and increase our
revenue via Facebook.
In order to manage our Facebook page
professionally and efficiently, we chose
to work with Zibaba, which enables us to
manage our entire social media activity
from a single dashboard, at a minimal
investment.
Through Zibaba we are able to showcase
our tour packages, offer deals and
coupons, manage our content and run
targeted Facebook advertising.
Simultaneously, Zibaba even created a
mobile application for us, which is a mirror
of our Facebook Page, thus saving us the
need to invest more time and money.
We couldn't be happier with the results
achieved so far, which led us to increase
our Facebook advertising budget, after
receiving an incredible return on our
minimal investment.
