Canadian Advisors Win With Sandals, Beaches

It was a ‘game changer’ for Canadian travel agents for two weeks in September, as Sandals Resorts invited them to test their Sandals and Beaches Resorts knowledge in a fun, interactive online quiz show created exclusively for them.

And “Sandals Game Changer” was just that — a game-changing way to engage and interact with advisors during the pandemic.

Maureen Barnes-Smith, director of sales & marketing, Unique Vacations Canada Inc., affiliate of worldwide representatives of Sandals and Beaches Resorts, said: “Our ‘Sandals Game Changer’ trivia brought some much-needed energy and excitement to Canadian travel advisors and their feedback has been incredible.”

Barnes-Smith continued: “Friendly rivalries developed during the quiz shows, but so many advisors told us that it was the most fun they’ve had at a virtual event in the past six months.  It’s a bonus if they learned a new thing or two about Sandals and Beaches Resorts along the way.”

After four games and over a hundred trivia questions on Sandals and Beaches Resorts, the scores have been tallied and the winners are:
