WHY DID WE DO IT?• Social media is growing at rapid
pace and there are limited - if any -established criteria for measurements
• Questions about “Who is doing it best?” began to increase greatly
• No one else in the tourism industry has come forward with any type of measurement

HOW DID WE DO IT?• Developed a weighted set of criteria,
beginning with 12-point algorithm that features 28 objects of measurement.
• Started with the idea to rank all the DMO’s in the United States.
• Modified the study to measure all 50 states. Conducted the first study in July of 2009.

WHAT HAPPENED NEXT?
• The first US DMO study was released in July 2009 through one Twitter and Facebook posting
• It was virally passed along by followers and fans – the initial study was downloaded more than 750 times
• Inquires came in from numerous DMO’s along with other consultants, bloggers & ad agencies.
