One Step at a Time

Putting a guest ranch on the road to recovery

In late December last year, Tansi Solutions was contacted to do a review of the product range, marketing, delivery and operations of an event venue and guest ‘ranch’ in the Prairies and come up with a plan for a complete make over of the business. Over the next 6 months, as Tansi went through the process of analyzing the business and come up with a recovery plan, the owners of the facility changed from being business acquaintances to becoming good friends.

This is appropriate as this family owned business has a tag line of “Come be part of our family!!

Over weekly sessions, Tansi Solutions has helped this business reach a wider national and international audience, broaden its appeal, and to become a more diversified business with stronger structures in place.

With event management, country style ranch accommodation, winter sleigh and carriage ride experiences, and a catering services, this multi-product tourism business needed some ‘big picture’

thinking and a structured plan. For the owners, actively operating the business on a hands-on basis day after day is mentally and physically exhausting leaving them little time to sit back and reflect on growth and marketing plans.

Tansi Solutions came up with strategies, clear guidelines and action points to help and deliver a working plan to build on their existing strengths and resources.

Tansi Solutions use their experience in tourism management, digital marketing expertise, product development, and business operations to continue guiding this business to a position of higher visibility amongst target markets, to have a range of summer, shoulder and winter season products that are competitively priced, and a well thought out marketing plan in place. This business is now firmly on the path to recovery and year upon year growth.
