The USS Midway reduced their audio tour cost by 30%

Challenge

For the USS Midway it’s important to educate and inspire their visitors with the stories of life aboard this historical aircraft carrier. The audio tour system they offered in the past was bulky, the system expensive, difficult to maintain and with no control over the content. They needed an audio guide system that would unlock their stories in a visitor friendly and cost effective way.

Solution

Transferring to our audio tour platform gave them back the control over their audio tours. On top of that, with the Podcatcher, the USS Midway’s visitors make their way through the vessel with an easy to use - and hold - audio guide.

Results

Next to a huge cost reduction on the audio tour offering, they saw a 15% increase in the use of the audio tour. As well as 35% faster waiting lines and many other benefits. The audio guide will fit in perfect with your look and feel.
