11. Small Group Assignment: Destination IMC Analysis The purpose of this exercise is to help you better understand what destination integrated marketing communication (IMC) looks like in the real world. Step 1. In assigned groups, search online to identify 2 destination/tourism marketing plans that include marketing communications/promotion sections, and reserve them for your team’s analysis by posting on the board. First come, first served. Each team must analyze different plans. Step 2. As a team, review your plans and report back to MyCourses (be sure to identify your destinations and provide the links to the plan; make sure participating team member names are included in your posting). Provide us with examples of … IMC objectives for each plan IMC tools and activities included in each plan. Wrap it all up with a concise “strengths/weaknesses” assessment. What are two or three things that you think were done particularly well in each plan (the strengths) and what is something that you would recommend be changed or done differently (the weaknesses)? Focus on IMC. Step 3. Present your findings to class at the designated time.
