Scott’s Cheap Flights Announces Rebrand to Going
SCOTT'S CHEAP FLIGHTS ANNOUNCES REBRAND TO GOING
Since 2015, Going has helped our 2+ million members travel and experience the world. The company combines sophisticated software and human Flight Experts to discover flight deals and mistake fares up to 90% off.
Scott's Cheap Flights, a travel service that has saved its 2+ million members more than $500 million on flights, has officially rebranded to Going.
"We knew it was time for a brand change that recognized both where we are today and could also grow with us into the future," said co-founder and CEO Brian Kidwell. "The name Going has this sense of motion and excitement to it that fits perfectly for a travel company like ours."
Going began as a modest hobby after founder Scott Keyes uncovered a $130 roundtrip ticket from NYC to Milan in 2013. But what started as a simple cheap flight email list for friends has now grown to a wraparound travel service, including a cheap flight search engine, multiple newsletters, and a soon-to-launch mobile app. With the company growing beyond just Scott and beyond just cheap flights, the timing was right for a rebrand.
"I work with 65 amazing people and none of them are named Scott," said Keyes. "Each week, we help thousands of people get unexpectedly cheap flights, and every time they write back to say 'thank you, Scott,' I feel supremely guilty! This company has dozens of people who deserve credit, not one person. While the name Scott's Cheap Flights worked great when it was just me, I'm even happier to be at a company we're all building together on our mission to help people travel the world, and that's Going."
Collaborating with the award-winning agency Design Studio and reviewing more than 3,000 names, Going emerged as the ideal name that satisfied the following criteria:
Speaks to travel: The new name had to speak to what the company does, but not in a tired or overly expected way. Names that included the words "travel" or "flight" were set aside in favor of one that conveyed the travel experience more broadly.
Timeless and borderless: The new name had to avoid short-term trends and industry niches, provide room to expand and experiment, and engage a global audience.
Memorable: It was crucial to take this opportunity to streamline and shorten our brand name to something that was easier to recall whether heard on local news or viewed on a billboard. No more "Scott's Cheap Travels" or "Steve's Cheap Flights."
Underscores the company mission: Above all else, it had to align with the mission to help people travel and experience the world. The name Going achieves that.
"While this is a big visual change, one thing that hasn't changed is the soul of this company," said Kidwell. "We'll continue putting travelers first, continue sending out incredible cheap flights, and we're excited to build even more ways to help people travel beyond what we can deliver in an email."
The rebranding effort will also include the long-requested introduction of a mobile app in the first half of 2023, including an interactive map of cheap flights available in real time. The app will be made available for both iOS and Android. In the coming months, Going will also expand their newsletter coverage and introduce Going for Teams, a bulk membership option for companies to strengthen their employee perks.

Website Depot to Wear Blue Jan. 11 in Support of ‘#WearBlueDay’ to End Human...
Website Depot, an omnichannel digital marketing agency in Los Angeles, has announced they will be expressing their full support of #WearBlueDay. On Jan. 11, National Human Trafficking Awareness Day, Website Depot partakes in activities to support the cause, warn others of the dangers of human trafficking, and stand with those who hope to ultimately end human trafficking.
Started by the Department of Homeland Security, 2023 will be the Blue Campaign's largest initiative. According to the DHS website, The Blue Campaign is a national public awareness campaign designed to educate those in law enforcement, lawmakers, businesses, and the general public about the prevalence of human trafficking, how to become aware of it, and how to take appropriate actions against it.
To participate in #WearBlueDay, the Blue Campaign and Website Depot invite the public to take photos of themselves, friends, family, and colleagues wearing blue clothing and share them on social media - Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram - along with (the) #WearBlueDay hashtag. According to DHS organizers, anyone and everyone are welcome to participate, regardless of location.
"Here at Website Depot, we're always glad to be able to support worthy causes, which Wear Blue Day absolutely is. Human Trafficking is an evil that far too many don't realize the full extent of. It's easy to think of human trafficking as something that 'doesn't happen in your area,' but, unfortunately, human trafficking can and does occur practically everywhere throughout the United States and beyond. Website Depot has offices all around the globe, so we know just how pernicious human trafficking can be. Through this campaign, we hope to raise awareness of human trafficking, so that it can be stamped out as much as possible. We stand with those who are taking great steps forward to do exactly that," said Danny Star, CEO and Founder of Website Depot.
Website Depot is an L.A.-based, full-service web agency that provides omnichannel digital marketing services for attorneys, rehab/treatment centers, and many others all across the world.

Streetwear Brand Ricardo London Pledges Five Percent of Its Profits to 107 HBCUs During...
Ricardo London (www.ricardolondon.com), the e-commerce streetwear apparel company based in Los Angeles, California, has made the declaration to donate five percent of its profits divided amongst all 107 Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU) throughout the United States in hopes of inspiring other black-owned brands, no matter the industry, to follow suit. The company made the conscious decision to contribute a percentage of its profits during the lifespan of Ricardo London's professional operations, etching in a socially conscious commitment.
It is no secret that most HBCUs are underfunded, but it is possible for small Black-owned businesses across all sectors to restructure their company's financial DNA to ease Black collegiate monetary burdens, and being a multi-million-dollar organization should not be the prerequisite for any company to do so, which is why the small team behind the young brand Ricardo London is implementing its giveback initiative immediately, and it will remain a mainstay as long as the e-commerce startup remains progressive in the streetwear market.
When asked what inspired the community initiative to donate a percentage of its company's future revenues to HBCUs, Antonio Ricardo responded, "It was during Deion Sanders' 'Club Shay Shay' interview with Shannon Sharpe that Sanders asked what his distractors were doing on a regular basis to contribute to filling the funding holes that many Black colleges endure. It was in that moment that we decided to make giving to HBCUs on a quarterly basis part of Ricardo London's outreach."
Ricardo London (www.ricardolondon.com) is an all-inclusive streetwear brand, but for its latest release, the "Shadow Alumnus Capsule Part 1", they decided to focus the capsule primarily on Black men and women as a way of sending a unified message of respect, loyalty, and commitment to Black culture. "Being that we are a Black-owned company, we felt the need to put our culture first and center, but all streetwear enthusiasts should expect future releases to encompass talent from all different walks of life," Antonio Ricardo stated.
About Ricardo London
Ricardo London (www.ricardolondon.com) is an e-commerce streetwear brand that is focused on quality-crafted, limited-edition garments and has driven community initiatives far beyond the stylish apparel it produces.
