Touristlink is pleased to report that a number of the tour operators have already received free leads from members interested in particular deals.

Touristlink founder David Urmann commented "We are very encouraged both by the response and by the feedback we are getting from tour operators and travel agents. Several providers have listed in excess of 10 deals alongside their profiles all unique and different. The next step for us is to give these providers the ability to broadcast their deals to a larger audience on the site."

Travelers can see details of each deal and then interact directly with the travel provider if they want more information or are interested in customizing and creating an individualized experience. Social profiles of providers include reviews and recommendations from other travelers along with other essential information which includes; personal information on the provider, travel interests, areas of expertise, languages spoken, preferred types of clients, pictures from past trips and more.
