Birthday & Anniversary Campaigns Built for Tour Operators

{"faqs":[{"answer":"Yes. CallMyCustomers works from a CRM, spreadsheet, or point-of-sale list exactly as it is — there's no software to buy or learn. We start with a free list review to segment your past travelers by recency and show you what the list can produce before any fee.","question":"Can you run birthday campaigns for past tour guests from just a spreadsheet?"},{"answer":"Total control. We plan the campaign together, and you approve every script, offer, and message before anything is sent. Calls are made by our team on your behalf, and texts and emails go out in your business's name.","question":"How much control do I have over the birthday and anniversary messages sent to my guests?"},{"answer":"Every reply is routed back into your existing booking process, with confirmations and no-show follow-up included. You don't manage a new inbox or system — interested guests land directly in the flow you already use.","question":"How do replies from past travelers actually become bookings?"},{"answer":"Win-back campaigns typically run two to four weeks end-to-end, with replies coming in as soon as the first wave goes out. Birthday and anniversary campaigns run continuously on your list, with follow-up and seasonal reminders timed to your booking cycle so guests never go dormant.","question":"How long does a birthday or anniversary campaign take to run?"},{"answer":"There's no software to buy, learn, or manage — our team runs the entire outreach for you. Pricing is a flat, list-size-based setup fee quoted at the free list review, plus outreach minutes from 9¢ to 21¢ that step down as volume grows. Texts and emails aren't billed separately; the quote covers the full campaign mix with no per-seat or surprise line items.","question":"How is this different from buying a marketing automation tool for my tour business?"}],"steps":[{"step":"1","title":"Free List Review","gradient":"from-orange-500 to-red-500","description":"Send us your guest list — CRM, spreadsheet, or point-of-sale export, exactly as it is.
