Before Corporate Traveller:
-
Cura Day Hospitals Group was working with another TMC and their service levels were just not where they needed to be.
-
No personalisation as Cura felt that they were just one of many company in a pool of customers
“I joined the company about 16 months ago. I had been with them for about a week and I went to the CEO to see if we could switch to Corporate Traveller. I had used Corporate Traveller in New Zealand and I knew the level of service we could expect. And instantly it was just so much better!”
- Chantel Abbott – Executive Assistant, Cura Day Hospital Group
