It’s no secret that DMOs have had to shift their marketing strategies and campaign messaging in the past few weeks. You’re encouraging visitors to stay home, finding new ways to support your local businesses, and working hard to keep your community informed. Recently, we’ve been particularly inspired by the uplifting videos that your DMO peers have created, and we wanted to share a few of our favorites with you.
