Tourism
4TM loves working with tourism businesses. Rene Looper, together with his wife Pamela, ran a hotel and restaurant in Scotland for 7 years before setting up Tuminds, a tourism marketing consultancy. David Sim and Geoff Wilcock, meanwhile, have worked with tourism organisations since 1999 when they first introduced small tourism businesses to the web. More recently Rene and David used their TouristSite portal software with the Aviemore and the Cairngorms Destination Management Organisation to rebuild VisitAviemore.com with a customer focus, and separately on GreaterSpeyside.com.
4TM for Destination Management Organisations and Area Marketing Groups
Looking for a portal that doesn’t just shout at potential visitors, but provides them with hard information and opens a two way conversation? Great! That’s what 4TM loves doing.
Visitors want to hear from other visitors. Touristsite makes sure that your message is heard alongside content from blogs, photo sharing sites and review sites. We help you create a database of tourism providers in your area, and involve those businesses in keeping the database up to date and project an accurate and vibrant image of your area.

We make use of open source software - freely available - so you aren’t locked in and your budget is spent on working for your customers, and not on software licenses.
For areas that already have a portal, we can help change it to have better customer focus.
We can also work with you to project your area through social media marketing.
Please contact us for an informal chat or for more information.
You can find some great examples of destination portals on our blog.
4TM for Individual Tourism Businesses
Social media marketing is extemely powerful. It finds potential customers on social networks and adds value by providing them with relevant information about your business. These one-to-one conversations are watched by thousands of others. We also let you know what people are saying about your business, your competitors and the area so you can react accordingly.
We can work with your existing PR agency: social media marketing generates personal and interesting stories. We also work with your web site company to improve your site and use social media marketing to improve search engine awareness of your services.
Please contact us for an informal chat or for more information.
