Public Relations and
Tourism Sales Update
Glacier Country Tourism’s Public Relations and Communication department, has been working on multiple projects for Glacier Country. We have written several advertorials, hosted journalists and led twitter chats. We are currently planning for the spring and summer visits of multiple journalists and digital influencers.
 Meanwhile, our Tourism Sales Manager, Debbie Picard, has recently been traveling to trade shows to promote Western Montana’s Glacier Country as a travel destination. This winter, Debbie attended NTA Travel Exchange, American Bus Association and Go West Summit, where she met with more than 100 domestic tour operators, travel program directors and international buyers. Since those appointments, there have been 60+ new operators looking at Montana as a new destination to promote. As always, Debbie’s trade show leads are available on the Partner Center.
Detailed marketing personnel reports are available on the Partner Center. For more information about our Communication and Tourism Sales Departments, email Nicole or Debbie at nicole@glaciermt.com or debbie@glaciermt.com.
