Status quo<br />
• Domestic market strong (> 85-90%) – build on this!<br />
• However, long-term high growth potential for <strong>in</strong>ternational dem<strong>and</strong><br />
• Changes of consumer behaviour due to crisis are meant to rema<strong>in</strong> <strong>in</strong> the<br />
future: core services, price sensitive<br />
• Individual packag<strong>in</strong>g with security <strong>and</strong> quality guarantee versus “All-<br />
Inclusive”<br />
• Virtual Trust – Social Media substitute mouth-to-ear<br />
• Internet shifts the power from<br />
travel trade to the client<br />
• Experience Economy: “tell a story”<br />

<strong>Rural</strong> <strong>Tourism</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>EU</strong><br />
Until the Lisbon treaty, rural tourism was not directly supported by<br />
<strong>EU</strong> due to lack of competence. However, it benefitted considerably<br />
from<br />
• the Common Agriculture <strong>Policy</strong> (CAP) s<strong>in</strong>ce beg<strong>in</strong>n<strong>in</strong>g 1962<br />
– Agro<strong>Tourism</strong> (diversification of farm activities)<br />
– Integral part of wider <strong>Rural</strong> Development (s<strong>in</strong>ce 1990), with strong<br />
f<strong>in</strong>ancial support for the creation of new <strong>in</strong>stallations especially <strong>in</strong> <strong>EU</strong> +12<br />
• <strong>in</strong>directly, Regional Development <strong>and</strong> Cohesion policies<br />
• other policies <strong>and</strong> programs (Lifelong Learn<strong>in</strong>g, ESF, LIFE, … )<br />

<strong>Rural</strong> <strong>Tourism</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>EU</strong> -2<br />
European <strong>Tourism</strong> <strong>Policy</strong> 2011-2013<br />

New paradigms<br />
• Accommodation is the complement to a broader product<br />
based on nature, culture, <strong>and</strong> physical assets<br />
• Traditional market segments disappear, new segments<br />
need to be addressed<br />
• “Generation change” – where<br />
do young people go – who<br />
will take over the bus<strong>in</strong>ess<br />
• Comb<strong>in</strong>e “Heidi” image<br />
with “Disney” professionality<br />

Relevant for <strong>Rural</strong> <strong>Tourism</strong><br />
“The client buys dreams, not just a room”<br />
• Value orientation = price-quality-relation<br />
• The experience or activity comes first, place on the globe is second<br />
• Many niche products: specialize on strong<br />
assets<br />
• Internet is the most important source of<br />
<strong>in</strong>formation, evaluation <strong>and</strong> contribution from<br />
other travellers is important<br />
• Visibility is essential - <strong>and</strong> easy for niche<br />
products through SEO<br />
• Authenticity of the holiday (!) experience<br />
Competition is world-wide<br />

Challenges<br />
• Seasonality (local dem<strong>and</strong>, climate, assets, … )<br />
• Streaml<strong>in</strong>e the product to real dem<strong>and</strong><br />
• “Who are the customers <strong>and</strong> what do they want”<br />
• Local <strong>in</strong>tegration of various services <strong>in</strong>to one product<br />
• Inadequate regulation environment (pools, meals, … )<br />
• Communicate the importance of <strong>Rural</strong> <strong>Tourism</strong> for rural<br />
economy <strong>and</strong> European society as a whole<br />

Strategies<br />
• Satisfaction <strong>and</strong> visibility depend on the whole DESTINATION --<br />
<strong>in</strong>dividual services are <strong>in</strong>visible from distance<br />
• Clear image based on real (!) USP<br />
• Reliable Quality – less is more<br />
• Holistic approach: Accommodation is a<br />
complement, NOT (usually) the product<br />
• Be susta<strong>in</strong>able … <strong>and</strong> COMMUNICATE it!<br />
• Anticipate ma<strong>in</strong>stream aspects (demographic<br />
<strong>and</strong> value changes, … )<br />
• “Hear the grass grow” – know your client<br />
before he knows you<br />
• Innovation <strong>in</strong> ICT <strong>and</strong> special segments<br />
• Improve qualification -> tra<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g<br />
