This enables us to conclude and even recommend the feasibility of a particular destination and a potential transformational plan if the analysis is applied to an existing destination.
After locating destination and getting feasibility reports we study the potential market through Target market research. This is where we look for the latest tourism statistics and trends that applies to your sector. We combine different statistics, focus group interviews and online tourism trend questionnaires about the preferences and choices of individual tourists, such as:
Our team will give better idea on specifying your target markets in demographic terms such as nationality, age, income, lifestyle and expectations. The results can be used for product development and distribution channel management.
This research enables us to identify competitor analysis, i.e. your direct and indirect competitors at local, regional, national or international levels. We compare company sizes, product offers, pricing and service levels whilst making use of best practice benchmarking.
This analysis determines the Strengths and Weaknesses of your destination and the Opportunities and Threats within the local, national and international environment. The outcome of this analysis forms the base of your destination positioning and you're Unique Selling Proposition (USP), which is a critical aspect of your destination's strategy.
A strategy based on the above research will specify the best way to position your destination towards your desired target markets, and provide the base for essential product & service characteristics.
A full scope marketing plan or an encompassing business plan will provide a hands-on document for the management and marketing of your tourism destination.
