WHY USE US

We have worked with Sandi and the Vibe Pacific team since we took over the management of Sunset Resort in 2011. Sandi’s expertise and professionalism made our transition that much smoother and we are very thankful for her representation of our resort. Her industry knowledge and extensive contacts within the travel industry are central to the growth of our resort. We look forward to continuing our relationship with Sandi and her team as they continue to strengthen the Sunset Resort brand.

The Vibe Pacific team are innovative and easy to work with. They are enthusiastic about their job and always make a great impression with wholesale travel staff, travel agents and travel consumers alike. We initially contracted Vibe Pacific to develop our brand in the New Zealand market and have been impressed with their cost-conscious approach to maximising our marketing dollars. The increased exposure we have gained in the New Zealand market has led us to recently extend our contract with Vibe Pacific to include the Australian market as well.

Our relatively new tour operation needed an extra push to raise brand awareness and to strengthen our profile in the South Pacific tourism market. We have worked with Vibe Pacific for just over a year now and Sandi and her team are doing a fantastic job in making this happen for us. Sandi has great enthusiasm and commitment to our product which she clearly demonstrates through her representation for us. She is very personable and friendly and has been excellent in promoting our product and increasing our exposure in the marketplace. We are very happy with the services Sandi and her team provide and look forward to our continued relationship.

Sandi’s dedication and work ethic as Managing Director of Vibe Pacific is outstanding. She took the time to understand our business and helped develop a marketing strategy that best suited our needs as an evolving resort. Sandi and her team are connected to an extensive network within the tourism industry making Vibe Pacific an extremely valuable asset. Not only have Vibe Pacific developed new and existing marketing opportunities but have also strengthened our brand and resort awareness through ongoing PR exposure. It is, and will remain, a pleasure doing business with Sandi and Vibe Pacific.

Why Neill and I chose Sandi @ Vibe Pacific to be part of marketing our business?

Hindsight as they say is a wonderful thing but now with our past and proven experience with Sandi at Vibe Pacific we can honestly say investing in a representation company has generated what all businesses need which is return on that investment.   It is never an easy decision to take on representation for your family business when you have developed it from scratch and it has been your total focus for many years.  We had a choice to continue with our own marketing efforts to generate similar results or look proactively at a collaborative model that provides flexibility of another marketing resource who is out in the field, in-market, in-touch and on the ground pursing opportunities or providing relevant updates to industry.  It came down to the fact we simply could not achieve the growth we needed for our business sustainability with our limited marketing resources on a timely basis (excuse the pun!).

Looking back what continues to make us realise we have made a sound decision is from the outset Sandi and her team have had a strong vested interest in that our success is undoubtedly their success. We were also well aware of other representative companies and had seen first-hand how others appeared to represent their own interests before their client companies.  Sandi has always been an integral part of our team, living our brand and representing us as we would present ourselves – a personal yet professional approach to relationship building, culturally astute with overwhelming Kiwi pride and a one-eyed focus on NZ as a destination of choice for our potential clients.  Her extensive experience and reputation speaks for itself with being well connected and truly admired by industry trade partners and peers and a positive point of difference is that she is actually a New Zealander passionate about selling products from her homeland.  Her optimistic personality and love of life really stands out for us as these are the types of people we already have work with us.  We are often provided with unsolicited feedback on how impressed people are when dealing with Sandi and most importantly how passionate she is about our business, New Zealand and our Pacific Region.

We realise many other forward thinking and progressive businesses, family businesses like ours, could benefit from using Sandi and the team at Vibe Pacific to grow their business potential.  For us it is not a question now of whether we can afford it, the answer now is we can’t afford not have this invaluable business marketing resource.  We therefore have no hesitation in recommending you to actively consider having Sandi and Vibe Pacific be part of your marketing efforts.  We would welcome you to contact us if you wish to have a confidential chat with us about our experience in choosing what we now know has been a proven success and return on investment for us!

PS: I love Proverbs and here is a fitting Maori Whakatauki I would like to share with you and that sums up how we feel about working with Sandi at Vibe Pacific:

‘Ehara taku toa, he takitahi, he toa takitini – My success should not be bestowed onto me alone, as it was not individual success but success of a collective’
