Why Should you Advertise with RMI?
There are four excellent reasons to promote with RMI:
Reaching the Right Audience
Your target audience are buyers throughout Europe who are picking up the guide or logging on the the web site because they are interested in booking packages for their clients and/or themselves. The "Real America" is one of the premier US destinations for many Europeans.
- Market trends show that Europeans are once again considering the USA as a choice vacation destination due to the favorable exchange rate between the Pound Sterling and the Euro over the US dollar
- Travel trends show a preference on the part of the European traveler to avoid purchasing city packages in favor of more leisurely landscape oriented destinations, perceived as more friendly and peaceful for the holidays
Visibility
By promoting your products, services and/or destination in the guide or on the web site, you will make sure that those European travel trade professionals and consumers will see your information.
- There will be 75,000 copies of The "Real America" Guide published and delivered to RMI's overseas offices in Germany, Italy, France, Benelux, and UK
- The guide will be delivered and distributed at all of the major travel trade shows in the RMI target markets, including the Manchester Holiday Show (UK), ITB (Berlin), BIT (Italy), PowWow (US), 4 States' Governor's Conferences, WTM (UK), and other promotional events.
- The web site receives over 152,000 unique visitors per year with monthly average visitors at just over 11,500
- The "Real America" guide and web site are the primary response materials to overseas inquiries for information on travel opportunities in the RMI region
