Effective Promotion in 5 Words: Give Them What They Want
How does a destination communicate itself to the world, a tourism initiative get noticed, or a sustainable activity find volunteers? A step by step guide of a true story of how a small idea to write a guidebook for a Croatian island mushroomed into a positive force for tourism promotion for the little guy and the offbeat destinations at national and international levels. The lessons are simple to learn and easy to reproduce in other destinations.
The conference is an important regional gathering for the tourism industry, as is explained by the official website’s welcoming message:
