A Travel PR account for your media, your clients and the reporters’ briefs

Yes. RepBud has a Travel PR account for travel PR agencies, freelance travel PR consultants and in-house comms at hotel groups, lodges and tourism boards. It keeps your media list and client records, lets you answer the briefs reporters post once you are connected to them, and lists the brands you handle so people searching for them find you.

Travel PR. Choose it on the sign-up page. If your work is sales representation for properties rather than press, the Rep account is the one for that. RepBud Reporters is for working media — journalists, editors, photographers and creators — and RepBuddies is for travel agents and tour operators, so neither is the right door for someone who handles a brand’s press.

Through RepBud Reporters, the free side of the network for travel media. Search it by destination, see who covers the places you handle, and request a connection; a reporter has to accept before you can message them. The community is new, so treat it as one more route to the travel media alongside the relationships you already have.

A brief is a reporter saying what they are working on — a destination, a theme, the kind of property, a deadline. Open briefs are readable on a Travel PR account on any plan. To answer one, connect with the reporter first; once they accept, your reply goes to them with your name, offering what you can: a property, a press trip, an interview, imagery or a press release.

Yes, if you list the hotel. Add the brands you handle to your profile and a search for the property, its city or its destination returns you with a way to reach you. RepBud also publishes a public page for you once your profile is ready to list, and you can turn it off. You can list as many brands as you handle, on any plan: Economy keeps 5 of them as CRM clients, with contacts and logs, and the rest appear in the directory by name and place.

Yes, from First Class. Market Intelligence reads the destination pages on operator and trade-partner websites and shows which of them sell your client, and which sell the region without them yet. It is the trade half of the story you tell a client, beside the coverage.

Yes. Write the release in Press & PR and publish it on your own newsroom page on any plan, with an embargo if you need one. Sending it to your media list goes through Reach, from Premium Economy, which handles consent and opt-outs so a release goes to journalists who have agreed to hear from you. It is not a newswire, and RepBud does not sell media contact lists.

Yes. Log each piece in Press & PR — the outlet, headline, link, medium, date and the journalist behind it — against the client. When you build an intelligent client report, from Premium Economy, the pieces that ran in that period appear in its Press coverage section, beside the meetings, press trips and follow-ups you recorded.

Yes. A freelance travel PR consultant can run on Economy, which has no card and no expiry. In-house comms at hotel groups and tourism board PR teams use the same account, and Charter plans put a whole team on one account so two people do not pitch the same editor twice.

There is a free tier with no card and no expiry, and each account starts there. Premium Economy, Business Class and First Class can each be tried free for 14 days; that trial needs a card, charges nothing for 14 days and starts the subscription on day 15 unless cancelled at repbud.app/billing before then. Prices are shown in pounds, US dollars, euros and rand. See repbud.app/pricing for the current figures in your currency.
