Reigniting the visitor economy

A FREE three-part webinar series dedicated to supporting Glenelg Shire Council business readiness and resilience



The ‘visitor economy’ is much broader than tourism, it is defined as any direct, indirect, and induced economic activity resulting from any type of visitor to our destination and their interactions. Shifting the lens on this allows for a new way of seeing opportunities and needs, but at the same time, it illustrates the potential ripple effect of the current climate. 


This series will share recent impacts and trend from this pandemic, whilst showcasing regional businesses and initiatives that take interesting or collaborative approaches around customer experience. Finally, we'll provide practical steps and pathways forward for support.

What is it and who is it for?

This program is for business owners and entrepreneurs in the Glenelg Shire Council municipality. It has been developed specifically to help our business community navigate this time and into the future.

  • Regional visitor economy business stories

  • How to start building or adapting your customer experience strategy
