SOUTHAMPTON, NY – The Travel Guide Group, LLC has acquired all assets of OneBird, LLC, including the leading websites for the most active leisure travelers to find and request free print and digital travel guides. The active sites include TravelGuidesFree.com, TravelGuides.com, FreeTravelGuides.com, and TravelInformation.com, along with many other travel-related URLs. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
TravelGuidesFree is a reliable partner for destinations to generate qualified active traveler leads. The site reaches in-market leisure travelers, who are attracted to the efficiency and ease of use in finding travel information.
Many leisure travelers seek print and digital guides to help in their travel planning, including deciding where to go, what to do, and how long to stay. Within 90 days of requesting travel guides, most of these travelers have already visited or have made plans to visit a destination.
Destinations have been able to make their guides available to travelers on TravelGuidesFree since 2007, and many of the site’s destination partners have been active partners for more than 10 years.
According to Cree Lawson, founder of OneBird: “We have established a very solid following of loyal partners that have been with us for 5 to 10 years, and we have grown TravelGuidesFree with the acquisition of the other sites. The Travel Guide Group will be able to provide the expertise and resources to continue to grow these sites and provide destinations with the platform and tools to reach more travelers.”
Paul Fusco, CEO of The Travel Guide Group, said, “We are excited about the opportunity to take this established platform with such a loyal following to the next level. There is a substantial need for destinations of all sizes, especially smaller DMO’s and CVB’s, to partner with a reliable and affordable platform to increase reach, awareness, and engagement amongst travelers, and ultimately drive visitors to their respective destinations.”
