Who are RocketRez and why should you consider working with them for your experience, attraction or tour business booking engine?
On this episode of the Tourpreneur, the weekly podcast for tour operators, we see the return of our popular Meet the Res Tech series and find out more about RocketRez.
We know that picking a booking platform for our tour business, experience or attraction can be a major headache so Meet the Res tech is designed to cut through the sales noise so you can find out more about a booking platform before asking for that demo. In this episode, we are joined by Kim Wark of Whirlpool Jet Boat Tours who shares more about why they picked RocketRex, what they like about working with RocketRez and what they would like to see RocketRez add to their offering.
“We are the guide that will help you; we’ll give you software to get you where you want to be.”
