As DMOs, we all know the power of events to bring visitors to our communities. But how do we effectively demonstrate the true impact these events have on our local economies? The Event Impact Calculator (EIC) is a game-changer! This article from Destinations International showcases how Puerto Rico is leveraging the EIC to not only assess the immediate financial benefits of events, but also to drive long-term economic planning, uplift communities, and stabilize the island's economy. This is powerful data that can be used to secure stakeholder buy-in and advocate for the event industry within our destinations. Let's move beyond anecdotes and showcase the undeniable economic impact we create! Read the full article here and share your thoughts on how we can better measure and communicate the value we bring to our communities. #DiscoverPuertoRico #DMO #CommunityDevelopment P.S. A big thanks to Kim DaRoja for this amazing resource!

Exploring the magic of Vienna for an incentive destination ✈️ We jetted off before Christmas for some crucial site visits, to capture the essence and vibe of the city and visit some truly incredible venues. Here are our top 3 reasons for making time for site visits: 🚀 Understanding the Venue Dynamics - Site visits provide an in-depth understanding of the venue's layout, facilities, and overall dynamics. This first-hand experience allows us to visualise event flow, identify potential challenges, and optimise the space. 🚀 Building Confidence - Experiencing the potential itinerary first hand allows us to communicate our vision more effectively to clients and suppliers alike. It gives us confidence to know what will work and importantly what looks good on a brochure but won't work in practice. 🚀 Proactive Problem-Solving - Site visits empower us to spot potential issues before they become problems during the event. Whether it's potential logistical challenges, technical considerations, or environmental factors, we always plan to foresee these and troubleshoot accordingly. Stay tuned for more details of the itinerary for this magical incentive trip happening next month. #incentivetravel #incentivetrip #incentives #eventmanagement #eventagency
