“The staff were so excited to win the fabulous cruise. The promotion was lots of fun and a real team effort, everyone got involved. The best fun was the day on the boat making the video.” Glenda Halliwell, owner/manager of Travel Centre Coffs Harbour.

The Winter Wanderlust trade marketing incentive ran between 1 May – 31 July 2018.  Agents chose the type of campaign, from digital to print to in-store marketing activity, with Viking providing images and collateral support.  Agents then submitted details of their campaign for judging.
