Connecting Your Winery or Travel/Tourism Brand to the Consumer

Understanding where a wine tourism consumer is open to encountering your brand is one of the easiest and yet most difficult things to get right. From understanding where receptivity to receiving a marketing message begins and ends, to identifying those opportunities within the marketplace, planning your route to market can suddenly seem less clear. In this session we’ll investigate the digital touchpoints your business could leverage, how consumers interact with those touchpoints and with brands, and finish with where consumer interaction may be headed in the future. This session is best suited to those businesses who are looking to develop a future-proof market approach and better understand the opportunities which are overlooked by many.

Optimising Your Business Website for the New Search: Practical Solutions for Small Business in Search

With voice search increasing and with larger businesses seeming to invest thousands in paid advertising, what can a small to medium sized business in the wine and culinary tourism industry do? This session will look at how to do simple and easy digital marketing for small tourism businesses and wineries. This session will cover how to leverage it, what critical elements you need on your website to ensure are done and how to optimise them for Google, and finally how to ensure you don’t waste money on agencies by understanding what you need.
