Better Business Blitz: get the competitive edge on tourism business in Fremantle

TOURISM businesses can find out how to maximise their competitive edge from 8am to midday, August 19, at a special forum in Fremantle.

Hosted by Tourism WA, Better Business Blitz is a free, hands-on workshop with industry leaders highlighting how to build business knowledge, also focusing on product packaging and distribution and cooperative marketing opportunities.

Speakers include Tourism WA’s Lesleigh Clarke, Icon Tourism’s Manny Papadoulis and Experience Perth’s Noeleen Pearson.

City of Fremantle Economic Development & Marketing Manager David Duncanson said the forum was an opportunity to discover the best ways to gain a greater impact in the tourism market.

“It’s a chance to find out who does what in the WA tourism industry, so people can make the system work better for their business,” he said.

“The forum will also show the value of online marketing and the benefits of becoming involved with regional tourism associations.

“At the end of the day, Better Business Blitz is a way of enhancing tourism overall, better positioning businesses to meet the needs of the local market in the 21st century.”
