Lestacworld’s business model focuses on capturing the global online tours and attractions market by creating a seamless travel experience for customers around the world. These services may be an on-ground tour package, individual activities, or entry tickets. Here is our approach:

See the market size of the online tours and attractions booking. 

1. Global Market Approach:We are not targeting customers from a particular city, region, country, or continent. Our approach is to target travelers around the world who are seeking information and services online.SEO optimisation is the primary strategy for it.
2. Integration of Secured Payment Gateways:
   Integrated with secure payment gateways that accept transactions from every corner of the globe, ensuring seamless and trustworthy financial transactions.
3. SEO-Optimized Website Portal:
   Our website portal is meticulously designed and optimized for search engines like Google, featuring content tailored for over 179 destinations. This not only enhances our global reach but also ensures visibility and accessibility on a worldwide scale.This approach is helping us reduce our marketing costs.
4. Currency as per the target customer’s location:
   To cater to a diverse global audience, our website dynamically adapts to target customers in their respective currencies. This personalized approach enhances the user experience and promotes a sense of familiarity and convenience. For example, if someone is sitting in the USA, they will see the tour cost in USD, whereas the same tour cost will be visible in SGD for someone sitting in Singapore.
5. Vendor Database Worldwide:
   Lestac World has successfully built a robust vendor database spanning the globe. This diverse network allows us to source products and services from various regions, contributing to the richness of our offerings.
6. Global Communication Channels:
   We’ve established effective communication channels that transcend geographical barriers. This ensures that our marketing and customer engagement efforts resonate with audiences worldwide, fostering a truly global community.

While the travel industry connects people globally, the financial aspects within the industry often lack a similar global reach. Entities in the travel sector face challenges in collecting payments from customers or settling transactions with vendors on a global scale. For instance:

• When Stephen from the USA wishes to book travel services in Indonesia, he may encounter prices in IDR from a local Indonesian travel agency. On the other hand, if he opts for a U.S. agency, the cost may be in USD, but the prices could be inflated due to multiple intermediary channels.
• We agree that for Stephen in the USA, paying in IDR might not be a big issue; however, what about those who are in Kazakhstan or Brazil and are trying to make payment in IDR? They may not have the flexibility to pay in IDR due to banking system limitations in their country.

The global travel market is expected to reach USD 1.8 trillion by 2025, with a growing demand for personalized and authentic experiences. Lestacworld is well-positioned to capitalize on this trend, targeting tech-savvy travelers seeking unique and memorable vacations.

Competitive Advantage:

• Focus on Personalization: The AI-powered platform tailors each itinerary to individual needs.
• Global Network: Extensive partnerships for competitive pricing and exclusive offerings.
• Technology-driven Approach: seamless booking, real-time updates, and travel management tools.
• Experienced Team: Passionate travel professionals with industry expertise.

• Established travel platforms: Existing global travel companies like Klook, Viator, etc. already offer similar solutions.
• Local competitors: regional or local travel agencies within targeted markets might provide competitive pricing or niche experiences, challenging Lestacworld’s position.
• Compliance with regulations: Navigating the diverse financial regulations of different countries requires ongoing effort and resources.
• Data security breaches: protecting customer financial information and ensuring cybersecurity is crucial in the online travel space.
• Scalability: Maintaining quality and efficiency as the business expands globally can be challenging.
• Attracting and retaining talent: Finding and retaining skilled professionals with expertise in diverse markets and regulations can be crucial.
• Brand building and marketing: Reaching and engaging target customers across various regions requires effective marketing strategies.

• Monitor competition closely: Analyze and adapt to competitor offerings while highlighting unique value propositions.The biggest opportunity is that even Klook or Viator are not yet able to grab full control over this market. Only 10% of travellers book activities or on-ground services online, and this is expected to increase at a great pace in the future.
• Prioritize compliance and security: Regularly update security measures and ensure adherence to regulations.
• Invest in technology: Stay updated on technological advancements and invest in robust systems.
• Diversify markets and offerings: Mitigate risk by targeting diverse markets and offering flexible travel options.
