  • Skift Take
    Inspiration and influence combine to form a potent form of persuasion on consumers’ smartphones and screens.

    Beautiful Destinations Founder at Skift Global Forum

    Jeremy Jauncey, founder of Beautiful Destinations, spoke at the Skift Global Forum about the power of visuals to influence consumer behavior.

    Beautiful Destinations works with brands and publishers to develop and execute Instagram strategies to increase followers and engagement, as well as drive interest to destinations and properties through targeted campaigns.

    Jauncey discussed the opportunity that still remains for travel brands to make better use of Instagram, highlighting the fact that the travel industry has been the second slowest industry after financial services to adopt the medium. It’s a rapidly growing one as well, reaching 400 million users a month who share over 80 million images a day.
