The Bay of Quinte Regional Marketing Board is reporting a busy summer so far, as it ‘ups’ its marketing game with some hi-tech moves.
The Marketing Board has launched a number of new initiatives this summer, including new weekly Facebook videos, a data collection project and Phase One of the new touch screen kiosks.
Executive Director Dug Stevenson says the kiosks are in nine locations including hotels and visitor centers and people can click their way around the region.
He says the kiosks are a great local story: programmed by SNAP 360, built by The Machining Centre, painted by Quest-Tech and faceplates by JB Print.
He says that last weekend’s event at Signal Brewing in Belleville provided an example of the success of Facebook Live videos.

Stevenson says their first-ever data project has been launched, collecting visitor data throughout the summer at select locations and events, in order to further inform their marketing efforts in 2018, in collaboration with their Bay of Quinte partners.
He says 40,000 Discover Guides were printed and they’ve already distributed almost half in 1.5 months.
They are getting requests from all over the province for them, even from visitor’s centres as far away as Sarnia.
