TOURISM QUEENSLAND NEW INITIATIVES TO MARKETING & BRANDING
Advise that Tourism Queensland has produced two new on-line resources for industry.
The BIG Marketing Guide is an introductory guide to marketing a tourism business, with sections on domestic, digital and international marketing plus branding, familiarisations, media and more. The guide was primarily developed for small tourism businesses but it is anticipated a wide range of operators will find it useful, for staff training for example. It’s now available on our website at www.tq.com.au/bigmarketingguide
The Grants Guide will help tourism operators understand how to navigate the grants space, specifically how to access grants and the art of writing grant applications and is now available on Tourism Queensland’s Tourism Assistance Database website at www.tq.com.au/tad
Both guides are written in easy-to-understand language and packed with practical information, tips and case studies.
