Richard, the result of this last mailing was just brilliant. The momentum we have built surpassed our highest expectations. It was more than double what we have ever achieved in the past. Thank you for being easy to work with, very professional, a man of your word and willing to work with us to achieve the best result possible. We have worked together for over 13 years now and your passion for your brand and the support of ours has never wavered. Thank you for helping to grow our great brand as one of the world’s greatest vacations.

The overall results to date from the current Spring Treasure Chest mailing are excellent…record level… strong ROI! You were right…conducting the match back against our reservations booked made total sense to validate this advertising. Also, I am delighted to hear about the increased circulation.
–The Breakers
Hey Richard, I just have to share…the response to our inclusion in Treasure Chest this fall has really been fantastic. We definitely surpassed our ROI expectations by closing a good bit of business and are actually still getting inquiries off of it. Additionally, we are now marketing to those that expressed interest and are seeing a good return there as well. Now I see why/how you “guaranteed results”! We would really like to partner with some of your cruise lines and be the Call To Action on their inserts. Look forward to the next mailing. Thanks a million!
–Cruise Planners, American Express
As you know, eight consecutive mailings...have filled our ships and database with thousands of bookings! Thrilled to see the circulation continuing to grow.
—Carnival Cruise Lines
Before the campaign you thought it might drive 3k to 4k bookings. It was more than that.
