It’s no longer a secret that we’re now living in the era of digital transformation. The travel industry has experienced significant changes as well, pushing advertisers and brands to consider new messaging, channels and approaches before campaign launches.

Behavior changes should turn into marketing hypotheses 

The virus is still not eliminated completely, and anxiety levels are not dropping. The health implications of travel and safety precautions necessitate specific customer-experience strategies, including work with brand awareness, evaluation and post-purchase scenarios.  

Today, small-group trips are being prioritized as consumers become more selective of their environment

As more companies rebound from the pandemic, advertising is sure to pick up. According to Zenith, ad spend will grow by 5.2 percent in 2022 to $652 billion. So if you work at an agency you love and have thought about buying it, now might be the right time. Just avoid running into the same errors that other buyers have experienced when executing an internal business sale. Here are the five biggest mistakes you could make:

The prospect of an internal sale is often introduced by an agency owner. That person might approach an employee or group of employees that seem like they’d be interested in buying the business.
