The internet and social media have changed the manner we communicate with commerce - this trend is very much evident in the travel industry. Nowadays, customers have changed themselves to online self-researching, while planning a trip, rather than going to travel agencies and tour operators. This digital change has an enormous effect on the travel and tourism industry and the destination marketing companies. Due to the increased internet usage among visitors, the buying, engaging and researching on the travel products has become more easy but competitive. Thus, this shows the means for an effective marketing and sales approach for the business in the online market.

2. Build Relationships: Nowadays,travelers look out for a travel firm whom they can trust. Thus, destination-marketing companies should not focus only the marketing of the firm but also on the building relationships with the customers. Since, like any other industry, even in travel market, customer is the king. Connect with them through social media platforms, email campaigns and don't be fearful to ask for comments and feedback.

3. Support with Reviews: In today's scenario, travelers search for reviews, especially when it comes to travel destinations. Provide reviews on your website, engage with your customers and let them write their experience of the destinations/trips.
