The challenge:

Prior to engaging with TravelStore, Lowe was seeking improvement to several travel-related challenges:

High annual maintenance fee
Travel portal not very user friendly
Account Manager not very accessible; too long to respond on matters
Resolution to problems and client disputes could take more than a week to resolve
Their TMC did not provide personalized services
Lowe travelers were getting undesirable room types on most hotel bookings with bulk buying.

“Exceptional service is the differentiator between travel management companies. That’s what we get from TravelStore- exceptional service! From booking, reporting, to aggressively negotiating rates so you don’t have to… TravelStore is always there when you need them. TravelStore also provides all necessary resources and tools to help you stay on top of things. We are so lucky to have Natalie Etcher and Fred Miller on our side!”
