"I can't say enough about how terrific it's been working with Bannikin. Proactive, excellent communications, attendant to details, creative story pitch ideas, on top of so many outlets, ably connected with journalists...what a delight and advantage it's been to work with Bannikin."

“We’ve been working with Bannikin for four years and have been extremely happy. Since they took over we’ve noticed a marked improvement in social media engagement, newsletter engagement, and SEO improvement as measured by a huge jump in organic leads. They have also spearheaded several ad hoc projects to improve customer loyalty and help us secure mutually beneficial partnerships with other travel companies and media groups. The team at Bannikin, and especially Zach, has worked closely with us to truly learn our identity and our clients’ profile and their focus on the travel industry is extremely apparent when they pitch ideas.”

Adventure Canada was lucky enough to find Bannikin five years ago, and they quickly became our go-to PR experts. They have placed literally hundreds of high-calibre journalists aboard our voyages– creating thousands of pages of editorial – which has led to over a million dollars in sales. Their expertise in the field of travel-industry public relations has been a game-changer for our PR strategy.

Grey County Tourism asked Bannikin to assist us in framing out a marketing strategy on a fairly short timeframe. They provided a 2-day workshop, promoting creativity and out-of-the-box thinking with our team, and then created a strategy document which outlined key positioning, goals and marketing activities. We appreciated their fresh approach and insights and have applied their work in our marketing activities with great results.

I love the energy and enthusiasm they bring to our company. Their knowledge of the travel tourism trade has been insightful and helpful to us in our transition from a sport fishing focus into soft adventure travel. We are excited about our continued relationship and success.

The experts at Bannikin play a critical role for me and Sol Fitness Adventures. For more than three years they've worked with me to shape and direct Sol's unique position in the market. I've hired Bannikin to create industry communication outlines, develop pricing strategies, share media opportunities and write press releases - all yielding high performance and response rates. Their industry connections are invaluable, but more important, their expertise and professionalism have been a pleasure to work with.

Working with the Bannikin team has been inspiring, as we have embarked on a strategic planning process to grow as a global tour company, approaching our 25th Anniversary. They have such a broad base and depth of experience, it has been fantastic to be able to consult with them on everything from marketing and website development to partnership development with our suppliers. I feel like they've really 'got my back' when I'm stuck on an issue and trust their insightful, creative and flexible approach to problem solving and visioning. Absolute gems!
