Proudly Serving Illinois


Illinois Tourism Software

Accelerate services for your tour operators and destination management.

Economies depend on government but depend on tourism just the same.  Having attractions and beautiful landscape and scenic areas aren't enough.  Much within a location has to do with building a desirable destination.  One in which local folks enjoy but tourists wish to venture to.

Illinois Customers

Illinois Flag

Some information I know about Illinois is I believe the state was admitted or ratified to the United States around or about 'December 3, 1876'.  Illinois is located around latitude '40' and longitude of '-89' and has a population of roughly '12,812,508 million'.  If I remember correctly the capital is 'Springfield' and the largest city is 'Chicago'. 

Understanding Tourism

When businesses, city or state level government decide to build incentives to attract tourists to their little spot in the world much goes on.  When tourists venture to your neck of the woods they encounter streetscape, waterways, roads, bridges all of which impact the attractiveness of the destination.  Tourism brings funds to local economies and managing tourist attractions or locations requires software to manage everything.

For Hire

As you read what I have learned about this industry please know this is an area I have limited knowledge in but would like more exposure to.



Tourism Web Sites

Ok so you've created the ultimate destination!  At least you think so.  Not to burst your bubble but how is a tourist to hear about your endeavors?  Word of mouth?  Most often not.  The web is the perfect avenue to ensure your tourists find your destination.  Trust me to build your web site and an eye-catching design.  Heck I'll even host it.

If at any point you decide to reach to me just know the area codes I am familiar with for Illinois are '217, 224, 309, 312, 331, 618, 630, 708, 773, 779, 815, 847, 872'.  For Tourism assistance you will find my rates very reasonable for Illinois.  Now just keep in mind my time zone is 'Eastern Standard Time (EST)' and I know the time zones in Illinois are 'Central Standard Time (CST)' in case you wish to call me.  Anyway let me continue.

Search Engines

That beautiful site will get you no where without proper presence on search engines for keywords which visitors will search for.  Think through all the phrases you would like to utilize when drawing in potential tourists.

Graphics

Determine your look and feel for your advertising.  Be it a web site design, a logo or promotional cards.  Take the time to think through what your trying to portray, who your trying to attract and make depict it as an experience to remember. 

You know, I don't make it out to Illinois much but I would like to see the 'Cardinal' state bird.  I am a little familiar with the Illinois 'Native violet' state flower as well.  However, I do not know much about Illinois's state tree the 'White Oak'.  Fishing is fun to me perhaps I would like reeling in the Illinois 'Bluegill' state fish.  Anyway, sorry I went off topic.  Let me continue.

Marketing Campaigns

You should set aside a budget on advertising your destination.  Determine which avenues you would like to advertise with.  This also includes printed advertising.

Need Assistance?

Ever have an idea about a product or service but lack the ability to develop that idea?  Are you looking for a reliable person/firm to build your software?  Perhaps you are in need of someone to manage projects and teams?
