Propellic Becomes Exclusive Marketing Agency Partner for 2026
The partners we choose to work with at Travel Trends are never just transactional, they’re almost always rooted in a strong relationship, shared history, trust, and a belief in where the industry is headed next. That’s why we’re incredibly excited to announce Propellic as our Exclusive Marketing Agency Partner for 2026, spanning Travel Trends Podcast Seasons 7 & 8, a special Marketing Podcast series and multiple new initiatives launching this year.
▶ Who is Propellic?
Propellic is the leading full-service travel marketing agency built for how people discover travel today. They help travel brands grow through SEO, paid media, analytics, and AI-driven visibility across search and generative AI platforms like ChatGPT. Recently named to the Inc. 5000 list of fastest-growing companies, Propellic works with leading tour operators, hospitality brands, and destinations worldwide to navigate the evolving digital landscape.
A Partnership
That Started
From Day One
Propellic holds a special place in our Travel Trends Podcast story. They were the very first sponsor of the Travel Trends Podcast in Season 3, and they’ve been a continuous partner ever since, supporting not only the podcast, but also our events and broader community.
As both of our brands have evolved, so has our partnership. Heading into 2026, we’re excited to deepen this collaboration and continue building bold, forward-looking conversations for the travel industry together.
A Relationship Built Long Before the Podcast ⥂
The relationship between Travel Trends host Dan Christian and Propellic Founder & CEO Brennen Bliss actually pre-dates the podcast by many years.
Dan first learned of Brennen from his time at The Travel Corporation. They had hired Brennen to manage SEO for one of their travel brands and his work immediately stood out not just for results, but for his strategic thinking and deep understanding of travel marketing. When Brennen later founded Propellic with a singular focus on the travel industry, Dan continued to support and champion the business from its earliest days.
What began with SEO quickly evolved. Propellic expanded into Paid Media, then continued growing into AI, Creative, Organic, and more all while maintaining a travel-first mindset that’s increasingly rare in the agency world.
Advocates, Advisors, and Real Results
Over the years, Dan has become an ongoing advocate for Brennen’s unique skill set and Propellic’s approach. He regularly recommends Propellic to his Travel Trends advisory clients, grounded in their proven track record, strong relationships, and consistent results across the travel sector.
Watching Propellic’s growth over the past few years both in capability and impact has been incredibly rewarding, and it made the decision for 2026 an easy one.
⠒What This Means for 2026
With Propellic’s continued growth and ambitious plans, we’ve officially named them our Exclusive Marketing Agency Partner for 2026, covering:
Travel Trends Podcast - Seasons 7 & 8
A dedicated Travel Marketing Series launching in 2026
Quarterly reports shared via the Travel Trends newsletter
A keynote from Brennen Bliss at our next Travel Trends Summit
This partnership will live across all our Travel Trends platforms, throughout the entire year.
⠒Shared Values, Big Plans
Simply put - we love working with the Propellic team. Their curiosity, transparency, and commitment to pushing the industry forward align perfectly with our own values.
Like Propellic, our Travel Trends Podcast has big plans for 2026, and we’re proud to have them alongside us for what’s shaping up to be a landmark year.
