Defining, Diversifying and Expanding Your Product Offering via Seasons

Particularly, if your tourism business is outdoors, it is important to showcase and celebrate your product offering throughout the seasons so that customers understand that there are compelling reasons to engage and book year-round. This process is crucial to extend the tourism season and ensure 52-week revenue generation.

Accommodation providers can play a role in this regard by highlighting things to see and do across seasons in their local destination through offline and online communications.

Tip: By clearly itemising seasonal highlights that apply to tourism businesses and destinations

  • Crucial year round travel and bookings are encouraged
  • Customers are given multiple compelling reasons to visit and return for diverse seasonal experiences.
