Digital Marketing Skills to help Malta’s tourism thrive. Meet Janet.
The tourism industry is one of the most crucial pillars of the Maltese economy, so more than ever before, the brilliant digital marketing campaigns of MTA will help reposition our islands as the destination visit. MTA’s Marketing Manager Janet Grech Dimech shares why digital marketing is non-negotiable for all brands within the travel and tourism industry. This is her story.
As a Marketing Manager, my role is to promote Malta overseas, with the goal of increasing tourism to the Maltese Islands. I am in constant contact with MTA’s overseas office representatives and foreign PR agents where we create content related to Malta and Gozo to be shared with international bloggers, vloggers and journalists. We create interest about Malta overseas by sharing stories, events, photography and, videos about the Maltese islands. I also handle invitations to journalists, bloggers, vloggers and inviting them to Malta & Gozo where they can experience the various facets of the islands, such as history & culture, diving, trekking, abseiling, cycling and gastronomy amongst other experiences that a tourist would like to discover when in Malta & Gozo. Organizing custom events for our international guests is extremely rewarding especially when they give our islands rave reviews and share their 5 star experience with their followers.
Digital marketing has become an indispensable part of every business. It has affected the way how DMOs are promoting their product to the existing customers and how to reach potential customers. A quality website, a strong social media presence, search engine optimisation, email, the creation of attractive content, and the implementation of effective digital marketing campaigns are crucial for the ongoing success of the tourism industry in Malta.
These are challenging times indeed, and when budgets decrease due to the circumstances that the whole world is facing, we need to ensure that brand Malta is still being positioned abroad and that we are creating a strong presence for travellers to choose when it’s safe to travel again. We need to keep generating interest and reaching out to people of different ages and different cultures and for this digital marketing is key.
