212: The Importance of Resident Sentiment in Destination Marketing with Dave Parulo

This week on the Destination Marketing Podcast, Adam continues his trip to the Destinations International Annual Convention. In this episode, he talks with Dave Parulo, President and CEO of Visit Tualatin Valley. They discuss how Dave’s destination has utilized agriculture in their tourism marketing plan, and how tourism has been a workforce and economic development driver in their area. "I think Covid taught us that we spend a lot of time talking about bringing visitors in and talking to them, but I think it drilled home to us, the destination management organization, that it's about the residents, resident sentiment and resident pride." -Dave Parulo Visit Tualatin Valley Follow the Destination Marketing Podcast on social media: Instagram Twitter YouTube TikTok If you’re enjoying the show, please leave us a rating and review on Apple Podcasts!
