My Campaign Trail

My first port of call is networking online to get a good friends and family support group. I have made a twitter and a facebook page and will be requesting everyone I know to join. I will then be contacting the local papers in Renfrewshire and radio to get an interview on why everyone in my area should rally around me to be the lowcostholidays.com travel reviewer for them. I will also get some colourful flyers made up and get them out in the local cafes and shops to grab people’s attention and more importantly get them voting for me!

My manifesto

My holiday reporting will be jam packed with great tips from amazing spots for couples to have romantic strolls to the best beaches to go with the family. I will hunt down the best areas to shop and eat for all budgets and where is best for that sunset cocktail! I will be updating twitter and facebook each day with pictures and updates on what I am doing, as well as answering specific questions people have on each destination. My blogs will not only have reviews on the hotels and local areas but will also have a Top Tips section where I will get all the local information, like when the shops/banks close, so you don’t waste any precious relaxing time rushing about. I will be posting behind the scenes video blogs (vlogs) on youTube where you can see me try all the local delicacies and track my travelling progress. I would love to be your private holiday guide answering all those little (but important) questions you have on each destination.
