New services for creating, editing and improving texts in the profiles of registered tour guides as part of the FIRST WAVE promotional campaign
Dear Tour Guides,
Thank you for your interest in our text enhancement service! We are excited to help you elevate your profile and tour descriptions on PRIVATE GUIDE WORLD. Our goal is to ensure that your profiles not only stand out but also effectively attract and engage potential tourists, adhering to all technical, ethical, and professional standards.
Eligibility: To participate in this service under THE FIRST WAVE promo campaign, you must be a registered tour guide who paid the regular annual subscription between August 10 and 20, 2024. Once your payment is confirmed, you’ll receive an email from us within 2-3 days confirming your participation and providing all necessary instructions.
Getting Started: To tailor our services to your needs, we’ve created two questionnaires:
Each questionnaire consists of about 10 open-ended questions and should take 15-20 minutes to complete. Your detailed responses will allow us to craft the most compelling and accurate descriptions for your profile and tours.
How to Fill Out the Questionnaire: You have several options:
Online Articles and Forms:
- Visit the ARTICLES section on our website at https://pg.world/articles
You’ll find two critical articles:
- Both articles and questionnaires are available in six languages. You can fill out the forms directly in your browser or on Google Forms. You do not need a Google account, but you must provide your email address so we can identify your responses. If you have a Google account, your progress will be saved automatically, allowing you to complete the form at your own pace.
Email Request:
- If you prefer, you can email our support team at [email protected] to request PDF versions of the questionnaires. You can fill them out and return them via email.
Support and Follow-Up: If you need assistance, our support team is ready to help. Email [email protected], or reach out via social media.
Once we receive your completed questionnaire, we’ll process it within a few days, depending on the queue. We will then send you a draft of the text for your review. Please provide feedback so we can refine the content until it meets your satisfaction.
Here is an example of a bed and good tour guide's profile description based on the opinions of the tourists on the PRIVATE GUIDE WORLD platform:
Why the Description on the Left Side is Bad:
- Lack of Specificity: The description is vague and doesn't offer any specific details about what makes Linda's tours unique.
- No Personality: The text doesn't convey any sense of who Linda is as a person or as a guide, making it hard for potential tourists to connect with her.
- Boring Language: The language is bland and doesn't engage the reader.
- No Unique Selling Points: This tour guide's description lacks unique selling points, making it unlikely to attract bookings.
Why the Description on the Right Side is Good:
- Specific and Detailed: Linda clearly states her experience, the type of tours she offers, and what makes them special.
- Engaging Language: The language is lively and inviting, capturing the reader’s interest.
- Personal Connection: Linda introduces herself warmly and shares her passion, making her more relatable and trustworthy.
- Unique Selling Points: The description highlights what sets her tours apart, such as the focus on hidden gems and her storytelling background.
Translation Services: If desired, we will translate your approved text into any of the six languages supported on our platform (English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Russian). Please ensure you are comfortable communicating in these languages, as tourists may expect services in all published languages. We will only proceed with translations after your confirmation.
Publishing the Final Content: Once you are satisfied with both the main text and translations, we will upload the content to your profile. The text will go live after our moderation process, which usually takes up to 24 hours.
Additional Notes:
- For Tour Guides with Existing Content: If you already have a profile or tour description but want to edit or improve it, we’re happy to assist with grammar, style, and translation checks.
- Style Preferences: We encourage you to indicate your preferred style and tone for the text. Creative and engaging descriptions often make a lasting impression on tourists.
Extended Participation: If you paid your subscription outside the campaign window but within three months before the campaign (May 10 - August 10, 2024), you may still be eligible for these services. However, priority will be given to those who subscribed during the official campaign period.
Rights and Privacy: You retain full rights to all text we create, and you may use it as you wish. We guarantee confidentiality; we will not disclose our involvement in the creation of your content unless you choose to do so.
If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out. Let’s catch THE WAVE together!
