Expert-led tours in 70+ cities; B Corp model scaling via travel advisor partnerships
Context operates a curated tour business built on deep local expertise—over 80% of guides hold advanced degrees—and is now actively scaling a travel advisor distribution channel while automating internal sales workflows. The hiring mix (13 ops roles, 3 sales, 3 travel, plus director-level leadership) reflects dual focus on operational capacity and channel expansion, with active projects spanning CRM automation, sales enablement via HubSpot, and partner engagement. Pain-point clustering around sales goals, partner depth, and high-volume inquiry handling suggests a scaling friction between demand generation and operational delivery.
