Trends

Which market trends are you seeing right now generally? Are there rising trends that your organisation should be tapping into? What market trends are you currently exploring?

Opportunities

Where do you see market opportunities for your organisation? Do changes in current and traditional markets present new opportunities for you? Where do opportunities exist which haven't yet been fully exploited?

Consumer demographics

How are visitor profiles changing? How successful is your organisation in engaging new types of visitors vs. old? How do you ensure your destination stays relevant?

Need mapping

How well-defined are your audiences? Who is your online audience and what are their needs? How can you support their needs to help form an opinion, develop an interest and support their visit?

Key influences

What factors influence their impression of your destination? How do factors like reputation, price, image, impact perception and the decision process? Are we successful at shaping this impression?

Interests

What are the key interests which resonate well with online audiences? Where do you believe your organisation stands apart from other destinations and which 'niche' audiences are key to engaging audiences online?
