CHANGE4DESTINATION
13 PROPOSALS FOR THE
FUTURE OF PUBLICLY
FINANCED TOURISM
MARKETING
Change4Destination is a think tank of experts from the tourism industry. It deals
with strategic questions relating to publicly financed tourism marketing and its
future in a digital society.
How can publicly financed tourism marketing significantly influence travel
decisions in an increasingly networked and high-tech society?
Do structures, and therefore organisations, have to change in order to keep up
with fast-changing demand in tourism?
What effects do these changes have on the products and services offered at the
destination?
The objective of the Change4Destination think tank is to identify new perspectives
and opportunities, rather than to deliver answers that are universally applicable.
The relevance of each socio-technological change is different and requires both a
holistic and a detailed look at the various levels of publicly funded tourism
marketing.
The digital revolution means change. Territorial structures, hierarchical
organisations and inflexible processes are no longer competitive. In particular,
changes to customer demand and new technologies make transformation a
necessity. In order to shape this transformation positively, a strong vision, a
willingness to be open, a wealth of expertise and a distinction between location
and destination are needed.

Publicly funded tourism marketing needs to address these requirements and this
new way of thinking, and must adapt structures, processes, expertise and
implementation as soon as possible. Public bodies must provide support to not
only enable a digital future for organisations and locations, but also to secure it.
The following proposals are based on these three elementary factors and attempt
to identify approaches, possibilities and requirements.

TECHNOLOGY PROPOSAL
5. FAST EATS SLOW
TECHNOLOGICAL AND SOCIETAL CHANGES ENTAIL NEW TASKS AND QUICK
ACTION.
In a high-tech world in which technological developments are
increasingly changing consumer behaviour, it is important to identify
and accept new tasks for the role of the organisation. More than ever,
fast, iterative and targeted action is a factor for success when dealing
with technology. The decision to develop technology yourself, or to
buy it in, should only be made if it will bring lasting value to the
delivery of the vision. In order to remain relevant in the global market,
decisions taken to achieve short-term gains should not be made at the
cost of the long-term fulfilment of the vision.

BRAND PROPOSAL
9. THE IMAGE IS DEAD LONG LIVE THE IDENTITY
In a society flooded with media stimuli and messages, both private and
business customers are looking for identity and values that foster trust
and give meaning to ones own actions and the actions of society.
This is where the image, widely discussed and therefore often
subjectively influenced, falls short. In many cases it operates purely on
an emotional level and is consequently very superficial.
This makes it interchangeable and vulnerable to attack, both from the
outside and from within. In a seemingly infinite world of travel
opportunities, image is by no means unimportant, but it is worthless
without identity. The customer and your employees are looking for
identity, i.e. for a sense of meaning beyond familiarity and popularity,
in order to put a more precise value on their own decisions and
actions. In this context a clear identity with a vision, values and a
story not only provides visibility, but also ensures survival. The
national, regional or local driver is responsible for this.

PRODUCT PROPOSAL
11. PRODUCT QUALITY IS THE KEY
PRODUCT FOCUS IN DIGITISED MARKETS THE QUALITY OF THE PRODUCT IS
MORE IMPORTANT THAN EVER.
Increasing market transparency and the standardisation of digital
communications driven by global players are reducing the scope to
establish a distinctive offering through communication.
