Digital World Suggestions

One of the major ways visitors are connecting with destinations in today’s digital world is through online resources, primarily through mobile devices. To reach visitors where they are means having a strong online presence. A website, a claimed Google listing, social media with Facebook or Instagram, that’s how people are booking, finding and planning. Here are some resources to help you build your online business.

At Your Fingertips

Develop a Resource Library

Developing and having resources is an important step in being able to market your business or services. This includes a logo in all formats (jpg, png and eps), a photography library and video. Although investing in these resources can require an investment, the return makes it worth it. If you don’t have creative resources, hire a local graphic designer. If you aren’t sure how to use social media, attend a class or hire a professional or college student. Have questions, reach out to other businesses and resources locally. In a strong tourism community, there’s a desire to support others. As the saying goes, “A rising tide floats all boats."

We’re in this together. It takes a valley!
