San Fransisco, CA -- (SBWire) -- 11/08/2012 --One of the biggest social media stories over the past year has been the rise of Pinterest. The popular picture-sharing website has exploded onto the social media scene. As a result, businesses have flocked to the brand in order to promote their services through the use of pictures.

Sundance Vacations is one such business. At the Sundance Pinterest page, visitors will find hundreds of pictures from vacation spots around the world. Along with offering eye candy about various tourist hotspots, the Pinterest page also features informative travel tips, infographics, travel style advice, and more.

Meanwhile, those who need additional inspiration to go on a vacation can look at the “Inspired To Get Away” board, which features motivational quotes about how traveling helps people find themselves and become better individuals.

Based in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, Sundance Vacations wants to help clients plan the perfect vacation. However, unlike other travel companies, Sundance Vacations specializes in wholesale vacation opportunities at discount prices.

A spokesperson for the site explained how Pinterest and other social media websites are helping new customers plan their perfect – and affordable – vacations:

“There are only so many words you can use to describe the perfect vacation. We feel that the best way to get inspired about a vacation is to look at pictures from around the world. We’ve collected a series of pictures that show people what it means to travel with companies like Sundance Vacations.”

Pinterest’s board system makes browsing through different pictures as easy as possible. There are boards with names like “Fun In The Sun” and “Liquid Vacations” as well as more informative boards like “Travel Infographics.”

In addition to a regularly-updated Pinterest page, Sundance Vacations also runs active Twitter and Facebook pages. Sundance Vacations’ Facebook page keeps visitors updated on the latest news in the budget travel community. From the Facebook page, visitors can also view a selection of customer testimonials from those who have recently traveled using Sundance Vacations.

Meanwhile, the Twitter account offers similar information. The @TravelSundance account regularly posts news stories about discount travel. One recent post discussed “The 10 Commandments of Road Trips” while another story highlighted some of the best photography apps to use while traveling.

Social media allows customers to interact with companies like Sundance Vacations in more ways than ever before. Whether searching for contests, special deals, or a selection of travel tips, the social media team at Sundance Vacations can help.
