Wait, how do you do this? ๐Ÿ™‹โ€โ™€๏ธ


Happy Thursday!

The girls started back to school last week and I jumped straight into building, marketing, and blogging to grow this business.

But something caught my attention earlier this week.

Someone who had downloaded my app, and already used it for a trip, DMed me asking how I made this screenshot I'd posted from our last trip.

This one ๐Ÿ‘‡

Yes, that's $20,153 saved on this trip using credit card points and miles. ๐Ÿคฏ

I never tallied a single one of those numbers. The app tracked it all while I planned, across multiple points programs, four currencies, and everything we'd prepaid months earlier. (To be clear, we'd never have paid that in cash. Points are what let us book nicer flights and hotels than we'd otherwise choose.)

They said, "Wait, how do you do this?!"

Well, I made the app that makes it and it's a free feature inside. ๐Ÿ˜‚

I've spent years doing marketing for other people's brands and have done a genuinely bad job of marketing my own.

So let me just tell you. As you build your trip and add costs, the Costs tab will start to fill in. Then you simply click the "Share Your Savings" button to create a shareable card (square or story size).

If you'd like, you can add a photo background, and even blur your kiddos' faces to share on social media. The blurring happens right on your phone. The only thing that leaves is the final card you choose to share.

If you already have the app, it's in there right now. Open a trip, tap Costs, and scroll to the bottom to share your savings.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Get the app if you don't have it yet. It's free, no trial and no card required.

P.S. If you make one of those savings cards for a trip you already took, send it to me. I want to see how much you saved...and I'll probably be more excited about it than you are. ๐ŸŽ‰

Good morning! It's been a couple of weeks since I landed in your inbox, and there are now almost 1,500 of you here. ๐Ÿคฏ If you're new, welcome! Three weeks into doing Travel Keeper full time, here's the unglamorous part. Starting a business is a thousand tiny things: Terms and conditions Privacy policies Links that need to go to the right place Automations that need to fire at the right time. And then something breaks at 10pm and you're the only one who can fix it. Luckily I'm pretty tech...

Hi, hi! I'm Megan, and I'm the whole team behind Travel Keeper. If you just downloaded my app, thank you! There are nearly 1,200 of you now, which is a number I did not expect to be typing this fall. ๐Ÿคฏ Start here: set up your travelers. This is the one thing I'd do before anything else, because it pays off on every trip after this one. Open Family Profiles and add everyone who travels with you. Names, passport expirations, and their frequent flyer and hotel numbers. It takes about five...
