TP Coffee Talk: What's been happening in the tours & activities industry?
Manage episode 437336014 series 2527484
The Tourpreneur podcast is back! After a summer hiatus while operators were busy operating... we're returning to our weekly schedule of conversations and insights for the tours & activities industry.
To kick off the fall season, TP partners Mitch Bach, Peter Syme and Chris Torres chat through everything that's been happening in the industry over the past month:
- What we hear about an industry 'slowdown' or 'softening' for tour operators, and whether it should change your business and marketing strategies
- AI: is it overhyped? Is the bubble bursting? Pete and Mitch debate humans vs. AI: what's the future hold? Will it be as revolutionary as the internet, or another overhyped flawed and failed technology like the Metaverse?
- the Google anti-trust ruling: how does a potential disruption in search affect operators?
- What Mitch learned about market positioning and B2B partnerships at the SYTA student youth travel conference in NYC
- The EU's new cookie law and its privacy implications for operators
- connecting with short term rental owners and other B2B strategies
- Peter speaking at WeTravel's travel tech innovation summit next week
September 10-12, join our friends at WeTravel for a free ticket to their three-day virtual Travel Innovation Summit where you'll hear from Tourpreneur.
Don't hesitate to get your ticket to our in-person multi-day tour operator conference Tourpreneur CONNECT in Marrakesh, Morocco Nov 18-21!
And as always, you'll find show notes and more on tourpreneur.com
