Turn your travel profile into a package ad

sizzledraft turns a travel agent's Instagram profile URL into a short video ad built around destination imagery and package value. It uses available public profile details, grid thumbnails, highlight covers and preview metadata to create the first video from the profile alone.

Opening lines that work here

  • Seven nights in Tenerife from $899. Flights included.

    It pairs a recognisable destination with the package price and a major inclusion immediately.

  • What does your next family holiday actually include?

    It opens a practical question that lets the video reveal rooms, transfers, meals and activities.

  • Swap grey skies for this adults-only Lanzarote escape.

    It links a familiar travel motivation to a specific destination and traveller type.

How can a travel agent turn an Instagram profile into a video ad?

Paste the URL of your travel agency's Instagram profile. sizzledraft drives a browser at the public page and gathers the destination thumbnails, bio wording, highlight covers and available preview image. It then uses the profile's own colours and visual cues to author a short scene around the holidays you sell. The first video is cut from the profile alone, so the public bio and grid should make your destinations and agency identity clear. Later videos can take a prompt, such as focusing on an all-inclusive Majorca package, a family departure during school holidays or a city break with hand luggage. This gives each ad a defined offer rather than a rapid montage of unrelated destinations.

What should a travel package video ad show first?

Lead with the strongest destination image and the clearest package value. A beach view alone may attract attention, but travellers also need a reason to enquire with your agency. Put the destination, trip length and headline price or key inclusion near the opening, provided those details are visible on the source profile or supplied in a later prompt. Then show the parts that justify the offer, such as the hotel setting, pool, room type, meals, transfers or departure airport. Keep conditions readable and avoid squeezing every date into one frame. For an Instagram placement, the vertical file is 1080x1920 at 30fps, giving destination footage and package text enough space without shrinking the booking message.

Can the finished travel ad use a trending Instagram sound?

Yes, but the sound should be attached inside Instagram rather than mixed into the exported video. sizzledraft can hand over a link to the relevant trending sound so you can add it natively when publishing. This matters because baked-in music does not count as using that sound on the platform. The rendered ad can still include scored, synthesised audio, normalised to -14 LUFS, and is delivered as H.264. Vertical output is 1080x1920, while horizontal output is 1920x1080, both at 30fps. Before posting, check that the destination name, package price, inclusions and booking instruction remain understandable with the phone muted, since many travellers will first encounter the offer without listening.

What the browser actually gets

Our browser usually captures the public Instagram preview, including visible grid thumbnails, the bio and highlight covers. Instagram's login wall can block deeper profile access, so we may need to work from the public preview and the page's og:image rather than individual posts or captions.

The common mistake

A common mistake is opening with several attractive destinations before naming the package, which makes the ad feel like a general travel montage. Fix it by choosing one destination and placing the trip length, price or strongest inclusion in the first three seconds.

  • Turning mixed destination grid posts into one clear package story without confusing travellers
  • Showing what a holiday package includes before viewers scroll past the opening destination shot
  • Making current prices, departure details and booking calls to action readable in a fast vertical video

Questions

Will sizzledraft access every post on my travel agency profile?
Not always. Instagram may put deeper profile content behind a login wall. We usually work from the public profile preview, visible grid thumbnails, bio, highlight covers and og:image. If a particular resort, itinerary or package detail is not publicly visible, it may not appear in the first video.
Can I choose which holiday package the video promotes?
The first video is created from the travel profile alone, so it follows the destinations and offers visible there. For later videos, you can provide a prompt that identifies a package, such as a seven-night Rhodes stay, a cruise itinerary or a family break with transfers included.
What format should I use for an Instagram travel ad?
Use the 1080x1920 vertical version for full-screen Instagram placements. It renders at 30fps in H.264, with audio normalised to -14 LUFS. Keep the resort, price and booking message away from interface areas so travellers can read the offer while captions and controls are visible.
How much does it cost to make more travel ads?
You can buy two videos for $19 or choose eight videos for $39 per month. Later videos accept a prompt, which is useful when your agency needs separate ads for different destinations, departure airports, traveller types or seasonal packages rather than repeating the same profile-wide message.
