Book Destination Marketing

Download or read book Destination Marketing written by Steven Pike and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-08-06 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The tourism market is fiercely competitive. No other market place has as many brands competing for attention, and yet only a handful of countries account for 75% of the world’s visitor arrivals. The other 200 or so are left to fight for a share of the remaining 25%. Therefore, destination marketers at city, state and national levels have arguably, a far more challenging role than other services or consumer goods marketers. Destination Marketing: an integrated marketing communication approach focuses on the five core tenets of integrated marketing communications. These embody both the opportunities and challenges facing Destination Marketing Organisations (DMOs), and are: 1. Profitable customer relationships; 2. Enhancing stakeholder relationships; 3. Cross-functional processes; 4. Stimulating purposeful dialogue with customers; and 5. Generating message synergy The author seeks to provide a rationale for DMOs; to develop a structure, roles and goals of DMOs; to examine the key challenges and constraints facing DMOs; to impart a destination branding process; to develop a philosophy of integrated marketing communications; to lead the emergence of visitor and stakeholder relationship management; and to set forth options for performance measurement.

Multiple components of marketing are identified to formulate a strategic online marketing model that is resilient and holds potential to adapt as contemporary environments change. This book is unique in that it proposes a broader treatment of online marketing initiatives by integrating its various dimensions and treating social media both as a cash cow and as a crucial investment tool within an integrated tourism system environment. Special insights are offered on sustainability perspectives/initiatives, contemporary social media marketing strategies, and growth of mobile systems. The distinct characteristics of this piece of scholarly work lie in its: 1) update of the most recent progress made in the field of strategic marketing with special emphasis on online marketing strategies, 2) presentation of a strategic online marketing model that embraces a holistic tourism systems approach, 3) offering global insights into the manner strategic on-line marketing perspectives are pursued by different tourism sectors, and 4) developing a smart marketing paradigm that integrates different tourism sectors to promote value chain offerings in a sustainable manner. Particularly, this book makes a unique contribution to existing literature by furthering the strategic online marketing model to embrace a smart systems perspective.
