Travel brands need to embrace visual storytelling in order to engage with travelers & locals alike. Here are reasons why, handy tips and practical examples to inspire!
Stories in the Social Era - Presenting to CCO Learning Day (Government of Can...Tara Hunt
On February 20, I presented this to a group of Communications Officers in various departments of the Government of Canada. The question presented to me when approached to give this talk was: "How do government services tell effective stories on social?"
My core thesis: They don't. People don't want to be told stories, they want to be involved in making them...especially in the social era.
This report examines how some of our macro trends—Peer Power, Predictive Personalization and Hyper-Personalization—are influencing the travel category.
It also spotlights Millennial travelers, whose tastes are influencing the travel industry in a number of ways, and includes a wide-ranging rundown of more than 20 Things to Watch in travel, from Holographic Concierges to Transient Hotels.
“Travel: Changing Course” includes data from a survey we conducted in the U.S. and the U.K. in November 2012, as well as input from experts and influencers in the travel, investment and marketing sectors.
Abstract
The need for strategic thinking in destination branding has been demanded regarding the challenges tourism destinations are facing nowadays, such as at the digital level. The utilization of Information Communication Technology by tourism destinations, when well-articulated with a destination branding strategy, could be a driving force to improve their strategic positioning, competitiveness, and to optimise the benefits they derive from tourism. The aim of this paper is to explore developments in branding Portugal as a tourism destination, namely what the online tourism promotional material is saying about the country. We intend to contribute to the discussion concerning the best strategies for Destination Portugal.

Social media challenges in destination marketingFrederic Gonzalo
Earler this year, we celebrated Facebook’s 10th anniversary, LinkedIn boasted more than 300 million active users while TripAdvisor now has more than 175 million reviews. We have come to expect seeing travel & hospitality stakeholders managing accounts on Instagram, Pinterest, Twitter or even Google+. In other words, social media marketing has moved beyond bells and whistles and is now the mainstay of a sound digital strategy, along with having a transactional, mobile-optimized website and a clean database for frequent, automated emails and/or newsletters. But while social media is now recognized as important, in particular within the travel vertical, managing it remains a constant challenge.
