Marketing for RTOs

Regional Tourism Organisations & National Tourism Organisations have the responsibility to give the best possible story about their destination to the the world.  It is therefore essential that the RTO or NTO discovers the best format and consumption manner for that story, so that the potential visitor comes to appreciate the benefit of the destination.  Discovertoday believes the best way of informing the potential visitor is to use video based story telling.  It is because video has a deeper emotional connection that embeds stronger attachments to the product or destination.  Video has greater recall and memory, creates greater clarity and focus on the destination story and is able to deliver greater amounts of destination based impactful information in a shorter times span.
According to a site survey (California Travel and Tourism Commission), some 70% of visitors watch their videos. Of those, over 90% find the videos useful in planning their travel. The result? Increased tourism and innovative marketing strategy brought to life
Unique use of social media as a jumping of point for consumers to engage with the destination product, but more importantly, to explore that destination product.  It is through exploration that we can move the consumer towards product confidence and eventually into a purchase decision that is in the context of that destination product.
Why video ? well, according to a recent Google survey,
89% of leisure travellers watch video online of travellers who watched online video whilst planning travelling, 74% of affluent travellers say they were prompted to book as a result of video
