Tri-State Tourism Summit
August 11, 2015
Mt. Pleasant, Iowa
10:00 am – 3:00 pm
Thank you for being a part of the Tri-State Development Summit Tourism Task Force for the first Tri-State Tourism Summit. Speakers included experts in digital marketing, social media, the value of tourism, customer service and more.
WHO ATTENDED?
Tourism, travel and hospitality professionals; convention and meeting planners; chamber of commerce and downtown/main street representatives; museum directors; small business owners; elected officials and anyone interested in learning more about digital marketing, social media, customer service and building great guest experiences in their community.
WHAT HAPPENED?
An action-packed agenda will include presentations by the Illinois and Missouri State Tourism Directors, a resource fair and brochure exchange (participants brought brochures to share with colleagues), networking lunch, panel discussions on social media and digital marketing and the value of tourism and a keynote address, “Build Great Guest Experiences” by nationally-recognized speaker and trainer for the tourism and hospitality industry, Phil Bruno.
As an added bonus, our friends at Mt. Pleasant Area Chamber Alliance and Midwest Old Threshers invited guests to an After-the-Summit FREE Ice Cream Social on the grounds of Midwest Old Threshers. Guests enjoyed the best soft serve ice cream around while touring the grounds on the electric trolley, taking in the museums and if we’re lucky, riding the steam-powered carousel.
