Marketing Plans for Heritage Sites begins May 31 (NEW COURSE)
Without a doubt marketing is one of the most critical aspects of any
heritage or interpretive attraction operations. Marketing brings in
visitors, creates new market groups - and gets them to come back for
return visits. Successful marketing efforts = staying in business for
most heritage attractions, particularly those not totally supported by
local governments or other governmental agencies. Yet many agencies and
organizations don't have marketing plans or yet... "successful marketing
plans".
Join interpretive planning consultant John Veverka for the new 4 week
online course Marketing Plans for Heritage Sites.
