The Audience
Every AGR Co-Op campaign deploys to a permission-based audience drawn from AGR’s verified frequent traveler database — a masterfile of 5.2 million contacts built and refined since 1993 through high-end travel-related platforms and publications. AGR’s database is structured around luxury travel interest, household income qualification, lifestyle indicators, travel behavior, demographics, and other audience-selection criteria relevant to luxury hotel and resort marketing.
AGR’s audience is built exclusively through permission-based opt-in from high-end travel-related platforms and publications. These are travelers with demonstrated interest in luxury hotel and resort experiences, which is why AGR campaigns consistently outperform general travel email benchmarks.

Proven Performance
Hawaii: 20+ Years of Continuous Operation
The AGR Co-Op model originated in Hawaii, where it has run without interruption for over 20 years, four campaigns per year, same structure, same verified audience. Across recent campaigns, Hawaii Co-Op deployments have consistently delivered open rates of 20 to 23 percent. That consistency across years, seasons, and audience segments is the proof of a model that works, not a single good month.

What Your Placement Includes
Every participating property receives equal placement within the campaign email. As shown in the April 2026 creative above, each property placement includes:
- Property logo
- Two hero images displayed side by side
- Bold editorial headline
- Two to three sentences of editorial positioning copy
- Offer or rate details
- Direct Book Now call-to-action button linked to the property’s designated landing page or offer URL
- Full link-level tracking: unique clicks tracked per link for every placement
- Equal layout structure: every property receives the same visual weight and format within the email
Americas Great Resorts designs and produces all email creative. The participating property provides property images, offer details, and destination URL. AGR handles layout, copy editing, production, and deployment.
The AGR Co-Op Process
Each AGR Co-Op campaign is organized around a curated editorial theme — a unified luxury travel narrative that groups participating properties into a cohesive collection. Sample themes include Best Adults-Focused Escapes, Best Family Luxury Hotels and Resorts, and Best New and Boutique Luxury Openings. Properties are selected for relevance and editorial fit within the campaign theme.
Audience size scales with the number of participating properties: three-property campaigns deploy to 60,000 recipients; four-property campaigns deploy to 80,000 recipients. This reflects AGR’s audience segmentation model across targeted geographic markets. Every recipient in every deployment has opted in to receive luxury travel content from Americas Great Resorts.
Once a placement is confirmed, the process runs as follows:
- AGR confirms campaign theme, deployment date, material submission deadline, and invoice details
- Property submits images, offer details, and booking URL approximately 10 to 14 days before deployment
- AGR produces the campaign creative and provides a proof for property review before deployment
- Campaign deploys on scheduled date
- Post-campaign tracking report delivered within a few days after deployment
