Tourism Development

  • In “Coaching Transformational Visitor Experiences” Celes Davar of Earth Rhythms alongside Ontario’s Southwest have created an industry-changing guidebook that aids coaches in providing the best possible strategies and advice to those looking to develop their business. One of the gaps that Ontario has been experiencing over the last couple of decades is the lack of personalized, engaging, and immersive experiences that visitors are looking for in a destination. Tourists are constantly looking for new, unique adventures and with the knowledge this guidebook provides, you will be able to inspire future experience owners and aid them in every step of the way.

    The objective of a Visitor Experience Coach is to assist individuals, businesses, and institutions in enhancing their experience in a way that when an experience is purchased, it creates a sense of gift giving and receiving rather than a transaction, fostering meaningful connections between involved parties. With this guidebook, you will be equipped with valuable tools to transform a business into an unforgettable experience and be provided meaningful resources to guide your development to being the best coach!

    Who the book would be useful for:

    • Future and Current Coaches

    • DMO’s (Destination Management Organizations)

    • Municipalities

    • Tourism Consultants

    • BIA’s

    • Economic Development Officers

    • Tourism Leaders

  • Improve your ability to cost and price an experiential travel product element with this market tested time saving tool.
