How Audioboom found a sound TMC
When you’re a cool, creative content maker, you don’t want to think too much about travel admin. You want quick and simple access to your travel itinerary and someone to contact if anything goes wrong.
Then you just need to focus on your trip objective and your equipment. But wait, that adds some complication. Do you have enough luggage space with the airline? If you add extra bags does it start to get too expensive? Do you have the right batteries?
We get it. Traveling when you’re in the creative industry is extra difficult. Audioboom is one of the many companies we’ve helped make it all easier.
Spoken-word pros
Chances are if you’ve listened to a podcast or radio, you’ve probably caught a bit of Audioboom’s content. They work with 4,000 podcasters, broadcasters, and advertisers including the BBC, Associated Press, NDC, and Yahoo!
Prime example? The Totally Football Show podcast, which advertises products such as Gillette and Dollar Shave Club.
A booming industry
Audioboom has evolved from its start-up roots. With all that growth came an increase in travel and costs, particularly when it came to lugging all that recording equipment.
Travel, and baggage, that works
Audioboom found its travel match with our Stage and Screen team. Their expert knowledge meant they could tackle any challenge thrown their way at any time.
Partnering with that specialist division also meant Audioboom could access entertainment airfares and discounts or free excess baggage, including complimentary allowances in many cases. Which, as you can imagine, was a huge relief for the Audioboom team.
But the benefits didn’t stop there. They got the 24/7 assistance they needed too – here’s just one emergency tale of many.
A traveler learned of a family emergency having just landed in New York. He needed to return home immediately. Just 20 minutes after landing, Lauren in our out-of-hours team had booked him on the next flight. It was 3am in the UK.
It’s often last-minute travel too, which isn’t the cheapest and requires quick turnaround. The main routes? London to New York, Melbourne and Mumbai. Their CEO spends a lot of time in the USA too.
