Experience Rich Product Development
Crafting Unforgettable Tourism Experiences
Our Experience led Product Development model shifts the focus from purely promotional marketing ("heads in beds") to a holistic approach centered on the well-being and unique identity of the destination itself.
Allowing Destinations to Thrive
It reframes the Destination Management/Marketing Organization (DMO) or a DMC/inbound tour operator role from promoter or manager to steward and curator.
A thriving community and destination attracts and sustains meaningful international tourism. The health of the destination (environmental, social, cultural, economic) is the foundation upon which successful, sustainable, and enriching international tourism is built.
This model has five interconnected pillars, operating continuously around a central core of Community Identity and Involvement.
