Social Media Contest

Today we have our first formal meeting with Daytona State College. Over the past few months we have been roughing out a social media contest for DMO's in FL.

If you have been watching my activites over the past year you know I have been really working it! Social media has produced results for my business. A few of my clients in travel have success stories.

Involving the school has many benefits. They are anxious to participate in a real world case study. We shall share their perceptions, most of them are social media veterans. It will be exciting!

Social media is the buzz of tourism marketing. We are all just facinated by it's potential. Most are sure we can put heads in beds and promote activities, but the question is how?

A few are doing a great job, many participate and some hold back. We are about to dive into a great experiment. Will you help us create a real formula for destination marketing.

Today is our first formal meeting with our partners. Students at the Daytona State College are going to help us as part of their class activities. Everyone wants to know more.

Please add your thoughts under comments. What type of competition will help you most? What do you want us to experiment with? We plan on Twitter, FaceBook and LinkedIn to start. We have other ideas but I really want yours.

We also need a few more members of FL DMO's to serve on our advisory board. If you can do that contact me via LinkedIn or by email bill.denmark@dme411.com

If you want answers help us create the right questions. I will post data here as it unfolds.

Thanks for your input...

Bill Denmark
