<strong>Introduction</strong><br />
As a <strong>Queensland</strong> tourism operator you’re part of one of the State’s largest and<br />
most diverse industries.<br />
Our industry is vibrant and dynamic and its strength lies in the success of operators<br />
like you.<br />
How you develop and market your business is important, not only to you personally,<br />
but to the government and industry bodies that represent your interests.<br />
As your State <strong>Tourism</strong> Office, <strong>Tourism</strong> <strong>Queensland</strong> (TQ) provides industry<br />
support, information and resources to help you make the most of your business<br />
opportunities and deliver solid returns on your investment.<br />
We do this in many ways. One example is the development of this marketing guide.<br />
The Big Marketing Guide was funded under the <strong>Queensland</strong> Government’s 10-year<br />
plan for tourism growth – the <strong>Queensland</strong> <strong>Tourism</strong> Strategy (QTS).<br />
It contains all the essential marketing information and resources you need to help<br />
get your business established and successfully competing in the marketplace.<br />
In addition to providing you with a marketing plan template and examples of how<br />
to develop your plan for day to day operational effectiveness, the guide also offers<br />
practical marketing advice, information, handy tips and web links to help you plan<br />
for a long and prosperous future in the tourism trade.<br />
