First Date That Launched A Multi Million Dollar Business

Slow Beginnings

Like many ventures, going was slow in the beginning… Very slow. They opened for business officially in January 2014, with one listing, to a group trip to Sierra Leone. Sounds like a dream vacation no? They said the first six months were excruciating for them, to the point that they sold a single package to Sierra Leone during that time.

To make matters worse, they ended up having to refund the person because no one else was interested in the trip. But one publicity stunt would make all the difference. They were also sans Google ranking or any online reviews, so garnering consumer trust and establishing a brand name was slow-going.
