This startup is creating the Shopify for travel by leveraging influencers and content to make vacations bookable via social media. 86% of all travelers choose their next vacation on social media. The problem is no one is leveraging this influence and content for booking so travelers are spending an average of 10-20 hours of additional research on multiple websites to build the vacation that was just presented to them. We’ve created a “One Click Away” solution to get you that trip. Current traction:
