Marie LOYOLA
I started my career in 2005 as a US Travel Designer at Voyageurs du Monde, a key BtoC Tour Operator. During these 10 years, I have developed solid expertise in creating and managing personalized trips for high-end clients.
My role was to design innovative itineraries, select the best destinations and provide expert advice on attractions, events and culture.
In 2018, following a Marketing and Communication training program, I’ve had the privilege of working with world-renowned clients such as Los Angeles Tourism & Convention Board, Visit Greater Palm Springs, West Hollywood Travel + Tourism Board, Travel South USA and New York City Tourism + Conventions. We have worked closely together to develop and execute impactful marketing and communications strategies. My role required an in-depth understanding of market trends, constant creativity and an ability to deliver innovative solutions to achieve their objectives.
In the last years, as a Regional Sales Manager at Visiteurs, a key BtoB Tour Operator, I have established and consolidated strategic partnerships with various leading figures in the distribution network, while ensuring high-quality service and meeting the travel agencies’ specific expectations. I acquired in-depth knowledge of the distribution’s organization: key players, operating methods and needs.
