Resumen

  • The aim of this book are two-fold: to evaluate the current progress of theoretical approaches to tourism marketing, and to show the ways to further develop the concept of tourism marketing for application within tourist destinations, and individual businesses and evaluate its potential impact on performance improvement. The structure is based upon the inclusion of an introduction and four main parts, namely IT marketing, destination competitiveness, image measurement, and consumer behaviour. There is a brief introduction for each part prior to the discussion of specific chapters just to make the readers familiar with their content. The editors believe that there is a need for information on how to better apply both traditional and contemporary marketing tools in order to be more competitive within the international arena.
