STILL HAVE QUESTIONS?
Here are some of the top ones we get asked.
How does Tourism Exchange USA work for Destination Management Organizations?
Selling the destination is a key success factor in selling products, and destinations can use Tourism Exchange USA to become a distributor. This allows you to market all of the products within your destination and benefit from the analytical data and campaign tools the Exchange provides. However, before any sales can take place, we need to ensure the product is available on the platform. The Exchange team will be working closely with suppliers to get their products registered so please encourage your local businesses to get involved. Details on the benefits to suppliers are listed in the Supplier section of the website.
How can campaigns work for me?
You’ll be able to run campaigns through Tourism Exchange USA. For example, for your destination, you could group all garden products together and apply a price discount or just use it as a promotional grouping. Similarly, if you are promoting a touring route, the Exchange allows you to pull together all product within a set distance of that route (for example, two miles either side of a certain plotted path). There are lots of exciting possibilities to bring your destination to life online.
