ClubCorp can embed the dynamic trip planning widget in every club site as a VISIT US page. It can be used by members and non-members alike, accruing revenues back to ClubCorp for each transaction.
In addition to members being able to use the tool to book their trip to other clubs in the network, it would also cater to non-members, individuals coming to a meeting, seminar, wedding or other event at one of your clubs.
[/boc_accordion][boc_accordion title=”To give each of your members their own personal trip tool “]The Smart Trip Anywhere Tool can be used to allow your members to plan a trip to see friends, families, prospects, clients and other venues. The widget would be pre-populated with their name. They would then click on the pencil and type the name of the place that they wish to go.
If for example, they want to visit the Louvre in Paris, they just type in The Louvre and pick the right one from the drop down list. Or if they need to visit a friend at Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, FL, they just type Mayo Clinic, Jacksonville and it will find hotels nearby. If they want to take a client out for dinner and stay nearby the restaurant, they could enter the name of the restaurant. Or, if a bunch of colleagues were going to Top Golf for a team building night, they can enter the name Top Golf and it will find the hotels nearby. Or of course, they can enter any company/organization name or an address.[/boc_accordion][boc_accordion title=”To power your events”]
The Smart Trip tool can be added to any event at any one of your clubs to allow anyone traveling to that event to find a hotel nearby.
The date will be embedded and you can feature an image of the logo, a photo or a graphic for the event and link to the ticketing and registration page.[/boc_accordion][boc_accordion title=”To raise money for any cause that you or your members care about”]Our Smart Giving anywhere tool can be used by ClubCorp or any of your members to raise money for their favorite non-profit. Instead of our normal 10% donation annually to your charity of choice, with the use of the Smart Giving tool, on a quarterly basis, we will donate 25% of our gross revenues from bookings made using the tool.
Each individual widget can be a separate campaign for a different charity. This product is being released 15MAY18 to our client base and as an enterprise client, it will be available to you as soon as it is available. We will keep you posted.[/boc_accordion][/boc_accordion_section][/boc_tab][boc_tab title=”Marketing Smart Trip Planning” icon=”icon icon-plugin”][boc_accordion_section rounded=”yes” with_bgr=”yes”][boc_accordion title=”Press Release Draft”]We will work with you to write a press release once you have launched the product.[/boc_accordion][boc_accordion title=”Announcement to your Member Base”]We will work with you to craft an announcement to the member baes that highlights all of the benefits to them, adding value to the ClubCorp membership.[/boc_accordion][boc_accordion title=”Recommended Help Text”]We will write the help and FAQ text for your site as it relates to the use of the smart trip tool.[/boc_accordion][boc_accordion title=”Login Popup Message”]We recommend adding a popup message to announce the new capability.[/boc_accordion][/boc_accordion_section][/boc_tab][boc_tab title=”Event Widget” icon=”icon icon-flag2″][boc_accordion_section with_bgr=”yes” border=”yes”][boc_accordion title=”The Event Widget (dynamic)” is_open=”yes”]The Event widget is one of our Smart Trip tools.

It allows you to embed trip planning on any page in your system or on your site or blog where there is a venue with an address. A venue can be a physical place, like your clubs or it can be a location like a museum, a park or a beach mentioned in a blog. As long as we can pinpoint a latitude/longitude, we can “trip enable” any photo or video..
This tool is distinct from the Event widget in that the dates of travel are relative to the date that the tool is displayed, e.g. travel 7 days from today for 1 night.

Or if you are designating all of the upside from using the widget to your favorite charity, you can use TravelingToGive. The next selection shows you all of the possibilities.

[/boc_accordion][boc_accordion title=”Private Label Branding”]Can we use our own brand? Absolutely!
For a one time fee of $1500 you can provide your own header artwork to us for the booking back end.[/boc_accordion][/boc_accordion_section][/boc_tab][boc_tab title=”Unique Aspects of the Integration” icon=”icon icon-plugin”][boc_accordion_section rounded=”yes” with_bgr=”yes”][boc_accordion title=”External System Interaction”]The TripProximity widget interacts with the following systems:
- Google Places for lookup of the venues and addresses in the address field
- Google Maps for lookup of the latitude/longitude of any address
Once the input from the widget is received, we pass a search string to our booking system. It contains:
- Brand to be displayed in the booking system
- Travel parameters
- Tracking information to provide reporting back to you for each client
[/boc_accordion][boc_accordion title=”CSS”]The widget has its own style sheet that governs the display of the widget within a container.
[/boc_accordion][boc_accordion title=”Rules for Display”]The widget can be populated with event and venue information, as well as contact information. Ideally, the widget needs the full address to do a lookup of the hotels nearby.
If you only have a city/state, we recommend that you use the conditional map field to display the map with city/state, but to prompt the user to use the Google Places functionality to look up the name of the organization, venue or street address of the place that they are going.
The date fields for events can be coupled with a business rule. For instance if you have an event that begins before noon, you may want to set the date of arrival to 1 day before the event begins. If the event ends after 3pm, you may want to set the date of departure to 1 day after the event.
Just a reminder, even if there is no address or a partial address (city/state), our new widget with the GooglePlaces lookup can find the precise address of the venue or company that they are visiting (even a Starbucks or TopGolf! or finding a hotel near someone’s house that works from home).[/boc_accordion][/boc_accordion_section][/boc_tab][/boc_tabs][boc_tabs type=”vertical” minimal_style=”yes”][/boc_tabs][boc_spacing height=”40px”]
