Each state website has a link included that is geared toward the traveler. These links may be at the very top or very bottom of the page indicated. For the first part of the assignment, analyze the attractions of the state. You will need to review the chapter in the textbook on attractions. Using the content, draw conclusions about the focus of the DMO’s efforts. For example, every state has a travel guide and other items to facilitate travel to the particular state geared toward the individual traveler. The trade, meeting planners, tour operators, and incentives also have targeted brochures.

1. Identify the “brand” for the state.

2. Next, highlight how the destination is focusing on this brand. For instance, for North Carolina, it is Deeper Connections.

3. Finally, investigate the individual traveler, industry, and trade to find how the state addresses this brand. How does the DMO market to the individual and trade?
