Thank You for Spreading the Word!

Thank You for Spreading the Word!

When it comes to promoting a local business, we at Eastern Star Cruises have found that there is no form of advertising better than word of mouth. Whether potential customers are reading 5-star reviews on your Facebook page, learning about recent clients’ experiences on Yelp, or chatting with a friend who has already worked with your company, they are much more likely to trust another person’s experience than a billboard on the highway or promotion on the radio.

Sure, these other methods of advertising are useful in helping your business grow, but positive word of mouth can work wonders when working to build your brand.

This wonderful Yelp review from Chrystal C. is just one example of how word of mouth has benefited us:

Here is another sweet note we received from a recent client:

“You provided a night that is a precious lifetime memory to those who were witnessing many dreams come true!   We don’t even know where to begin to thank you.  Every detail mattered and you left no stone unturned! Your unbelievable attention to every detail made it an unforgettable night.  My husband said he never saw a staff that were eager to help at every turn. We are eternally grateful to you and Captain Nick.”

We at Eastern Star Cruises are incredibly fortunate to have such a loyal group of customers; ones who have allowed us to share in the most memorable days of their lives. From surprise engagements to weddings and quinceañera celebrations, we have witnessed so many beautiful ceremonies and events throughout the years.

As we look back on the tremendous season we have enjoyed this past year, we would like to take a moment to say “Thank you!” to our customers. Thank you so much for allowing us to be a part of your special days! And for taking the time to share your incredible experiences on Facebook and Yelp.

Eastern Star Cruises strives to create an excellent experience with each of our charters, and whether you set sail with us for a wedding ceremony, surprise birthday party or corporate celebration, we will do our very best to meet your every expectation.
