Digital Marketing Webinar Series

To support our members to be more competitive in the online spaces we ran a series of educational webinars. 

  • 90% of people use the internet to search for their holiday inspiration and do their planning, but over 60% of them haven't yet committed to the destination so there is huge opportunity to share our Mackay story and influence their decisions
  • 65% of people will put an experience or destination on their bucket list based on the recommendations of their friends and family and 92% of people trust peer reviews over advertising
  • mobile and social are huge drivers of change in the way people are making their holiday choices and how they're booking their holidays, but unfortunately a lot of tourism businesses are challenged to adapt their marketing practices to keep up with how customers are using technology.
