This will involve several different steps for the students, including: Conducting background research on our town and its history as the #1 Arts town in Canada. Identifying the customer personae of prospective visitors and their travel journeys. Identifying attractive experiences and interpretive narratives to build out itineraries: .ie: weekend getaway packages, week long immersion with inner muse, art month creative sanctuary! Recommending revisions to incorporate storytelling within our existing promotional materials. Bonus steps in the process would also include: Revising our current materials to include effective storytelling.
