I love how this article that our DCI team placed ties in a well-known sports entity and how its investment in a city can impact an entire economy by attracting complementary industries, residents and visitors. A tri-fecta of place marketing success. We know that sports tourism is one of the fastest growing sectors in attracting leisure visitors, and we also know through Development Counsellors International's proprietary research that a potential workforce likes to visit a place first before relocation. So here's a quick tip when it comes to #talentattraction marketing: If you want to elevate your region as a great place to live and do business, don't be afraid to leverage the brand reputation of your sports teams and the development they bring to your economy. It's a winning combination. (Also...if I was more sports inclined I'd probably have a better pun... please don't tell my husband, who played college baseball, how woefully ignorant I am with these types of analogies:) #econdev #economicdevelopment

Formula One 🏎 race 3/24 in Australia at Albert Park Circuit 🏁 this weekend. As we gear up for the highly anticipated race in 2024, let's remember the fundamental principles of Formula 1 - speed, strategy, and teamwork - that can also be applied to our sales and marketing efforts. Just like the drivers on the track, we need to be agile and constantly adapting to stay ahead of the competition. The quarter-end is a crucial time for us, where we evaluate our performance and make necessary adjustments to reach our targets. The same goes for the teams in the Formula 1 race, where every second counts and a well-executed strategy can make all the difference. So let's take inspiration from the 2024 Formula 1 Australian Grand Prix and use it as a driving force to achieve our sales and marketing goals this quarter. Let's go for the win! #F12024 #SalesAndMarketing #QuarterEndGoals #digitalengagement https://lnkd.in/echtHwgz
