The tourism industry is constantly evolving, and destination marketing leaders must continuously position themselves to take advantage of new opportunities. At Arrivalist, we’ve always followed the data, and that’s why when we saw the huge impact short-term rentals have on destinations; we joined forces with AirDNA. 

Cree Lawson is headed to the rolling hills of beautiful VisitLEX to gather with the U.S. Travel Association – National Council State Tourism Directors. Cree will share why the recent acquisition is perfectly timed to seize this unique moment in time, and why it's important that we start to shatter any pre-existing notions of the short-term rental market.

Destination Florida was such a fun conference to attend. Charles Lewis and Mike Robertson, DES, CSEE really enjoyed their trip to New Smyrna Beach last week. The conference's conversations focused around how important it is for DMO's to manage and nurture their relationships with political leaders and advocate for the importance of tourism. 

Arrivalist, since we were founded back in 2012, has been helping our clients use data as proof-points when speaking with community stakeholders. In a state like Florida... the land of sunshine, miles and miles of beaches, and resorts & amusement parks... it's an easy sell that tourism matters; right?!?! 

No matter where you are, as tourism leaders, it's always an uphill battle to educate business and political leaders on the value of tourism; that we represent an industry that is not just "fun" but has a huge economic impact. Put yourself in an even stronger position by sharing out fact-based data that shows visitation patterns, travel trends, seasonal need periods, lodging preferences, campaign attribution, ROI, and more. 

If you are a current client; reach out to your Account Manager today to touch base on how you can best leverage our data. Let us help you get the insights you need to advocacy for the important role you play in driving revenue to your destination. And if you aren't a client yet, send us a message and we'll hop on the phone to talk about your 2024 goals and share a quick demo of our data intelligence platforms.
