“Being a member of Destination Gold Coast allows us access to and provides us with valuable domestic and inbound market insights, destination marketing and product showcase opportunities that we would simply not receive if we weren’t a member.

“Our membership with DGC gives us the opportunity to leverage our marketing budget and piggyback on destination campaigns to reach international markets that as an independent product we wouldn’t otherwise be able to reach on our own. As members, the networking opportunities, invitations to participate in and host famils and attend trade events is what we value most. The Online Holiday deals and extensive social media coverage as well as having someone to call on for advice on the general state of the market, and being able to leverage off DGC’s extensive media exposure is invaluable to our business”.
