As you all know, the business is still very (very) small... but my vision is for it to keep on growing. But what can you do if you hit a lull? Éire Óg Tours has been an online entity for just over a year now. Thanks to Facebook, tracking business page progress has become very easy. Not to toot my own horn, but to-date our Facebook account has over 700 likes and the Twitter account has over 800 followers (toot toot).
But what next?
I know, let's sit behind the computer screen and poke each other for a few hours each day and hope the business takes off!
No.
I have big plans. Our next step, which I mentioned in a previous post, is to get the upholstery re-done. After that, I will be getting the Facebook 'F' and the Twitter 'T' logos put on the back door. Not a big deal right...ooooohhhhhhh I'm not stopping there. From December on I will be rolling out a new series of deals for those living NEAR a town, but not quite near enough. This means that for folks living in places like Crusheen, Quin, Tulla, Ruan, Corofin, Kilkishen, Tubber, Inagh, Connolly, Kilnamona etc. etc. etc. you will be able to get in and out of Ennis with all of your friends at a DAYCENT price.
And that's the end of it I suppose? WRONG AGAIN! From March 2014 onwards, I will undertake the long, painful process of acquiring more vehicles. At the moment I only have a 16 seater minibus on the road. By next Christmas, I intend to have a nice variety, including a 33 seater and a 9/12 seater. This means that Éire Óg Tours will be able to cater for more groups, and means I will be able to keep the prices as low as possble. If there's only 8 of you, why would you be paying for a 16 seater?
Get my drift? :)
