Marketing

Our innovative marketing not only attracts new clients, it creates customers for life with extensive loyalty programs and the professional Expedia® CruiseShipCenters® experience. You'll build customer trust and loyalty with every interaction; in-person, over the phone, via the web, by email and through printed newsletters.

The management of Expedia CruiseShipCenters' marketing is just one of the tasks facilitated through our 7SEAS Club. Over 1 million members have complete control of their personal preferences including travel destinations, cruise lines, favorite activities and more. Expedia® CruiseShipCenters® practices Permission Marketing which means members specify whether they would like to receive information that matches their profile by mail, email or both. By ensuring customers only receive information that interests them, less than 1% of our 7SEAS Club members choose to opt-out of the program.

Develop customers for life with Expedia CruiseShipCenters' integrated marketing strategy – marketing that always connects your clients to you.

Personalized Direct Mail


Our direct mail program features newsletters that paint the picture of your client's dream vacation with eye-catching photography, interesting articles and special money-saving offers.

Samples:

  • Monthly Specials Flyer
  • Quarterly Dream Voyages™ Magazine

Permission Based Email


Many of our 7SEAS Club members also choose to receive information by email. Since they are based on the customer's personal preferences, these weekly newsletters are personalized, relevant and anticipated. Email newsletters are fully interactive and addressed to the client from their Cruise Consultant. When a customer follows a link in the email, they are automatically connected to that Cruise Consultant's personal website where they can find more information and contact the Consultant directly.

Samples:

  • CruiseShipNews® - Monthly Newsletter
  • CruiseShipWeekly® - 3 Unique Editions
  • CruiseShipFlash® - Last Minute & Hot Specials
