Drivers of growth
Delivering superior, personal customer service

It’s one of our strategic pillars to connect real people
with real people
• We invested in people and scalability
• Our service center with 150 skilled travel agents is a
     sales channel, not a call center
• Calls to our team result in higher average selling price vs.
     online

Drivers of growth
The best team in the travel industry
Attract the best Talents
•   We don‘t just hire from the best travel
    companies, but the best companies anywhere

Motivate Talents
•   We have a system to make all our employees
    shareholders of HCG; company shares are part
    of the salary package

Talent Investments
•    2017 step change investment into headcount
     in customer-facing service center, software
     developers and data science experts
•    Going forward, no longer need to invest
     ahead of growth

Our unique DNA allows us to focus on local
 unserved customer needs: trust & convenience
 • Today booking a package holiday online is still way too complex
 • There is a lack of convenience as well as and a lack of trust into online players.
 • 2/3 of all vacation packages in DACH are booked offline
 • We aim to change that!
 • Both HolidayCheck and Zoover were founded as hotel review portals
 • Both are local champions in their market
 • Therefore it’s in our DNA to create transparency first, and connect Urlaubers* with
   Urlaubers in order to find the perfect holiday
 • Therefore we are always on the side of the Urlaubers

Our focus on secured relaxing holidays allows
    us to deliver to specific local customer needs
    • Therefore we focus on secured relaxing holidays (warm water short-haul)
    • Therefore we focus on our customers from DACH, Benelux & Poland
    • Therefore our target group is customers who wish to know what to expect on their holiday
    • We have a focus on predictable travel e.g. Package travel
