How to make ATDW work for you

There are varying levels of knowledge and support of ATDW amongst our partners and regional businesses. Personally, I think that if you have a customer-facing business and want to get more awareness, traffic to your website, and greater marketing reach, you should sign up. It was free for about three years during the depth of the pandemic, but fees were reintroduced earlier this year at $295 p.a. To help you decide whether it’s worth the investment (after all, every dollar counts when you’re in business) or how to make it work better for you once you’re on the platform, we’ve asked the team at Visit Victoria to run a short online session.

Details:
Tuesday October 17th 12.30-1.30pm

Save the date for our end-of-year function

Over the last few years, we’ve held a little end-of-year shindig for DMT partners and friends to say thanks for all your support. We’re still working through the details for this year, but we do have a date, so pop a little placeholder in your diaries if you’re keen. It will be on November 28th, somewhere relatively central. We’ll share more in a couple of weeks.

Destination Management Plan
We’re most of the way through the development of our Destination Management Plan. In a couple of weeks, I’ll share a link with you so you can review and provide feedback if you would like to. The DMP is our key strategic document for the next five years. Stay tuned.

Take care,
Steve and the team.
Cheers,
