Marketing memories with Fotaflo: Elevating tourist experiences and surviving the pandemic

Marketing memories with Fotaflo: Elevating tourist experiences and surviving the pandemic

Ryan O’Grady started his career as a videographer, capturing adventures and experiences with his crew around the world. In 2009, Ryan wanted to grow his career by launching an online platform specifically for businesses in the tourism industry. This platform, now known as Fotaflo, is designed to enable these businesses to effortlessly capture and share the remarkable experiences they provide to their customers.

When social media was still a new concept, Ryan believed in his dream and pursued a venture that has grown exponentially throughout the years. Leveraging memories as products, and giving their clients the ability to use authentic user-generated content to create word-of-mouth referrals, Fotaflo revolutionized the tourism industry with its unique innovation. 

But what happened when everything was shut down and the tourism industry was at a halt during COVID-19?

Listen to the full podcast to learn more about Ryan’s journey and how Fotaflo became an Innovation Factory success story!
