I am Rade, based out of Boston and originally from Montenegro (that's the country right next to Croatia). I am mainly in travel vertical, as I owned several companies in the past, and the most recent one I launched 2 years ago has been taking off in the US market. I have 15 years of professional experience and have found myself in various roles. I have an MBA in Economics, and a strong sales background which helps me scale my ideas faster and make my companies profitable.
Most people don't know what DMC means. DMC stands for Destination Management Company, and the company I run provides all types of meeting, conferences and travel arrangements in the Adriatic area (Croatia, Montenegro, Albania). If you have any questions related to travel or the Adriatic area, please ping me, as I will be your best resource!
I am passionate about sales and marketing, and I would love to connect with anyone who wants to exchange ideas and best practices. I believe my extensive experience is valuable but I have a lot to learn myself and I am looking forward to learning from all of you.🏆
I am working on a couple of new projects and I will share that eventually once I bring some clarity on development.
Best place to find me - LinkedIn
Welcome to the Gildre Community Rade! Was in Croatia for a trip last year and loved the region - definitely interested in exploring the surrounding area. Excited to learn more about Travel Twitch and support your founder journey in any way we can.
Love to hear that - that region is so specific and has so much potential!
Hi Rade, it's great to connect here. I worked in the travel industry for 7 years and often toy with ideas for disruption in the sector. We should chat sometime.
Hey Matthew- that sounds great! Let's connect and chat about the industry.
Welcome to Gildre @Rade Bogavac! Hello from Munich. Not quite Adriatic but we are regularly in Croatia. 🙂 . In the Krk area. Glad to see you here.
Hey Dunja,
That is such an Adriatic name! Happy to hear that people are familiar with Croatia. I have spent a decent amount of my life in Munich, and I am a German speaker, so we definitely have things in common!
Looking forward to connecting!
