Travel Xpo
Last fortnight we attended Travel Xpo at the Royal Exhibition Building in Melbourne.
The primary marketing tool was the holiday planner guide and the brochures from the businesses who partnered up with Echuca Moama Tourism.
The show offered both international and domestic tourism product with several RTA's in attendance.
The show generated great interest and we managed to distribute approximately 1,000 brochures.
Thank you to all the businesses who partnered up with Echuca Moama Tourism.
Fishing Monthly Advertising Opportunity
Echuca Moama Tourism has assisted in creating an advertising opportunity for members to participate in a comprehensive feature in the well known and nationally distributed Fishing Monthly Magazines.
The special supplement will feature the fishing aspects of the region, along with family activities and accommodation to create interest within this large consumer sector.
Fishing Monthly is regarded as the most progressive fishing publisher in Australia.
The magazine features regular contributions from coastal and country areas to suit both freshwater and saltwater fishers.
Fishing Monthly provides the best up to date local information inclusive of some great articles from on the spot correspondents.
The Echuca Moama special supplement will be appearing in both Victoria and Tasmanian Fishing Monthly (V&TFM) as well as New South Wales Fishing Monthly (NSWFM).
V&TFM has a distribution to 16,000 consumers, while NSWFM has a distribution to 16,000 consumers (32,000 copies in total), which makes these titles ideal print media vehicles to advertise in and take advantage of the Echuca Moama & District supplement.
