How to Effectively Market Your Community For Tourism and Business Attraction

KaVo & MarceB, Season 2 Episode 39

Today we are sitting down with the A-Team, Ashley Kavanagh with Big Sky Economic Development and Aly Eggart with Visit Billings for a discussion about growing our local economy through tourism and business recruitment and expansion. They dive into what it’s like working in tourism and economic development, the work they do to strategically attract tourists and businesses both domestically and internationally, and they share the impacts that their jobs have as key positions as economic drivers for our economy. 

We discuss the importance of collaboration between key partners and organizations within a community and the critical role that collaboration has for a destination to strategically grow. Aly and Ashley talk about the proactive approach their organizations are taking to market Billings, Montana’s City and what distinguishes Billings as a community to visit, live and work and how to leverage your community’s assets in business, talent, and tourist attraction.
