There are many ways you can get more travelers to join your group. We always encourage signing up as many people as you feel comfortable with, keeping in mind that sometimes people have to cancel their trips, so having extra sign-ups is a good idea. The more people on your group, the more benefits you will receive from Group IST.
What about those people that were interested but couldn't make your meeting? Now would be a good time to contact them. If you have enough interest, you might even want to set up another meeting.
The best source for more group participants is those people already signed up. Word-of-mouth is a powerful marketing tool, so encourage your group participants to talk to THEIR friends, family and co-workers.
Follow up, follow up and follow up again. Contact people who attended the meeting but have not yet submitted a reservation form. They may have questions about the tour that you can easily answer. Some groups might want to hold regular meetings, say once a month, to help them prepare for the trip. This is a fun way to bolster positive energy about the group. If you feel you don't need to physically meet with the participants monthly, you should at least communicate with them via phone, mail or e-mail. This is important to keep the momentum and word-of-mouth marketing going.
