PUTTING YOUR PLACE ON THE MILLENNIAL MAP (and staying there)TOPOSOPHY
Are you working for a tourism board that’s trying to
figure out its next-gen strategy? Looking to sort the Millennial
myths from the hype? Welcome to Toposophy’s
free guide for destinations and travel brands.
Here, Peter Jordan, Toposophy’s Senior Tourism
Analyst explains the basics of understanding Millennials
and ensuring that your place branding and management
strategy is in tune with this new generation of
consumers.
Millennials, born between 1980-1995, have distinct marketing preferences that focus on authenticity, mobility, and experiences. They spend significant time consuming and creating media online and trust user-generated content from friends over traditional advertising. Effective millennial marketing utilizes influencers, shares behind-the-scenes content on Instagram and Snapchat stories, offers discounts and deals, and creates memorable experiences for sharing on social media. Live video through Facebook is also an impactful way to engage millennials authentically.

This document summarizes key findings from a report on luxury travel and social media in the Americas in 2014. Some of the main points include:
1) Small, concise, and personalized digital content is important for reaching luxury travelers, as attention spans shorten. This includes brief, image-rich social media posts.
2) Instagram and TripAdvisor are still very important platforms for luxury hotels, as they allow travelers to share unique, "instagrammable" experiences.
3) While Latin America is a smaller portion of luxury travel hotspots, the region saw a 5% increase in luxury travel reviews from 2012-2013, with destinations like Puerto Rico and Rio de Janeiro performing well. Meanwhile, North

This document discusses the importance of destination branding and citizen engagement for tourism. It uses the example of Athens, Greece to show how branding and engagement can help overcome challenges like economic and social crises. After Athens experienced falling tourism due to negative media coverage of its economic crisis, a program called "This is My Athens" was launched. The program engaged local citizens to share their experiences of Athens online and as visitor greeters, in order to promote a new image of the city and increase social engagement for tourism. The program saw over 5,000 photos shared and 400 local participants, improving Athens's reputation and tourism product through active citizen involvement.

Millennials represent a significant portion of the global population and economy. They value experiences over material goods, social causes, and having a voice.

This document discusses the importance of branding communities for tourism. It argues that effective branding involves specializing in a niche activity or experience to differentiate the community from others and attract visitors. Some key points made include:
- Generic descriptions and logos are ineffective brands; an effective brand creates a specific perception or feeling about the community.
- Successful brands are either unique or the best in their category, and require endorsements to support claims of being the best.
- Communities should develop a brand that focuses on something visitors cannot experience closer to home, such as a particular cultural activity or natural feature. Maintaining new products and attractions over time is also important to keep the brand appealing.

4. Hope Smith
Hope operates her Virtuoso-affiliated travel agency, Born
to Travel, out of her Sierra Madre, CA home, focusing on
leisure vacations and adventure travel.
She is a native of Monterey, Mexico and has been
recognized as a Top Travel Specialist for Mexico by both
Condé Nast Traveler magazine (each year since 2012)
and National Geographic Traveler magazine.
She also volunteers her time to serve on the advisory
boards of Saveur and Ski magazines.
6. Matteo Luthi
Matteo has lived in Mexico for more than 20 years,
serving as a tour manager for exclusive clients throughout
country. In this role, he has developed creative and
unique programs for luxury travelers, and has managed
operations for many of Mexico’s best known tourism
companies.
7. The Big Picture: Travel is Up!
Demand for travel is the highest it’s been since 2004.
16 million trips are taken a year and that number is
growing
8 out of 10 affluent consumers said they will take an
international trip in the near future.
As demand grows, rates will go up as suppliers get more
buying power. They will have more leverage when
negotiating rates for FITs.
8. THE PORTRAIT OF AMERICAN
TRAVELERS®
A national survey conducted in 2013 by MMGY Global.
2,511 active leisure travelers who reside in households
with an annual income of $50,000 or more (including an
“affluent traveler” subset of households with an annual
income over $125,000).
They had taken at least one leisure trip of 75 miles or
more from home during the previous 12 months requiring
overnight accommodations.
9. How Mexico Fared Last Year
12% of U.S. leisure travelers who took an international trip
visited Mexico
19% visited the Caribbean
29% visited Europe
10. Desire to Travel In Next 2 Years
24% of US leisure travelers are interested in visiting
Mexico on vacation during the next two years
47% are interested in visiting the Caribbean
61% are interested in visiting Europe
11. Most Interested in Going To Mexico
Millennials (31 percent) showed the strongest interest in
visiting Mexico in the next 2 years.
12. What is a Millennial?
They are 18-35 years of age
Recognize the size of the market: There are 95 million Millennials out
there.
That’s compared to 78 million baby boomers.
They spend $200 billion a year on travel.
They comprise 22 percent of the traveling public and while they’re
leaning toward budget travel now, they’re growing up and will
soon be able to spend more. They are the future.
They take on average eight to nine trips a year; that’s business +
pleasure, but they’re extending work trips into leisure breaks.
13. Activities of greatest interest to
Millennials while on vacation include:
81% - having enough time to relax and unwind
79% - a destination I have never visited before
78% - safety of the destination
76% - an opportunity to try new and unusual cuisine
72% - a beach experience
66% - visiting architectural sites
61% - shopping
59% - visiting an amenity spa
57% - nightlife and entertainment
53% - hiking/climbing/biking
48% - participation in water sports
46% - gambling
45% - playing golf
14. More Millennial Traits
They want authenticity and do not want to feel like a
tourist, ever.
They are more likely to try new things while on vacation.
They, more than any other group, want to connect with
people on vacation.
They want to share what they are experiencing as they
are experiencing it via social networks.
15. How to Appeal to Millennials
Millennials like to champion brands they love. Be sure
your brand is something they want to be a part of.
Let the culture of your business show through online,
Facebook, Instagram and other social media. Create a
vibe people want to be a part of.
Don’t do a hard sell on Facebook. Posting deal after deal
will make Millennials walk away. Instead, speak of the
your own travel experiences. Talk software, not
hardware.
16. YOLO!! The Luxury Millennial
Combine with this the younger generation’s new
buzzword, YOLO. (You Only Live Once.)
Using this as an excuse, Millennials are spending their
money NOW to go to iconic hotels or the newest
destination.
They’ll worry about the rest later.
-- Paul James, Starwood Hotels & Resorts
17. Latest Luxury Travel Trends
For the past year, Luxury Travel Advisor has hosted at
least one roundtable a month across the globe, bringing
together suppliers and travel advisors to share consumer
trends.
The following insights are culled from 12 meetings with an
average of eight to 12 participants each and from the
Ultra Luxury Summit held March 25-27, 2014 in Chicago +
from MMGY Global.
19. Affluent Spending Their Wealth Now
The recession saw a holding back on spending.
That trend is gone.
The 55+ affluent travelers have decided they
are not taking it with them nor are they leaving
it behind.
And they’re spending it on travel.
20. Today, We’re All A-Listers
Consumers want hotel staff to remember their names
and what they did on their last trip.
Everyone at a luxury hotel these days considers
themselves a VIP and expects
to be treated accordingly. Everyone.
Personalization, customization and authenticity are the
buzz words for today.
21. Even the Wealthy Want Value
People do not care how much things cost as long as they feel
something is being returned for their money.
Jonas Schuermann, Mandarin Oriental, Hong
Kong
For the past three years, we’ve not sold a hotel that doesn’t come
with some value add. Fifteen years ago, I never asked for breakfast
or Internet. Now it’s the norm and it’s totally expected.
Peter Carideo, CRC Travel
22. Advance Bookings Are Back
High season and festive season have moved back to a
more advanced booking time. Certain hot properties
have to be reserved very far in advance or it’s difficult to
clear space.
Dan Beschloss, Valerie Wilson Travel
23. Authenticity is in Demand
People want to have a sense of where
they are. We encourage our hotels to
come up with experiences that are
always changing. In Paris, our chef
takes guests to the market where they
buy white asparagus when it’s in season.
They go back and they cook it
and everyone is touched by that.
Darren Gearing, Shangri-La Hotels & Resorts
24. Radical Personalization
It’s not always about the marquee,
super-expensive experiences, it might be
just a simple visit to learn paddle-boarding or something
like that. We are cultivating relationships with local
suppliers to get their guests insider access to experiences.
Christopher Gould, The Atlantic Hotel, Fort Lauderdale
25. The New “Bleisure”
The leisure guest and the corporate guest seem to be
merging into each other. A business traveler can bring a
spouse and kids or they can tag on a couple of days to
enjoy a destination.
26. Multi-Generational Travel Gets Bigger
Family trips have expanded to group size over the past
few years. Now the groups are getting larger with up to
40 traveling at once as family members join in.
Guaranteed adjoining rooms, villas and rental homes are
vital to them.
27. The World As Classroom
We’ve got so many more families with the
next generation coming along; they take
the kids out of school saying, “This is a
better experience than school.”
Amanda Hyndman, Mandarin Oriental Bangkok
28. I’m Turning 30, 40, 50, 60, 75!
Celebration travel is also strong. People
are traveling in groups to enjoy their
30th, 40th or 50th birthdays and they’re
bringing their friends along.
