He joined Longwoods in 2015 from his previous role as Vice President, Partner Engagement with Brand USA, the public-private partnership serving as the destination marketing organization dedicated to increasing international visitation to the US. He led the team responsible for helping to increase Brand USA's partnership base and ensuring that participants received excellent service throughout Brand USA's deployment of joint marketing programs. During his tenure, Brand USA grew its base to 475 partners, comprised of destination marketing organizations, convention and visitor bureaus, attractions, travel brands, airlines, and tour operators. Before joining Brand USA, Amir served as Director of the Ohio Office of Tourism. Under his leadership, the state's marketing programs realized a tremendous return on investment and contributed to the growth of the state's $40 billion tourism economy. The programs he developed leveraged industry and nontraditional partnerships that generated $14 in new state and local taxes for every $1 invested and included active participation by thousands of Ohio's tourism-related businesses. He has also served as Executive Vice President of the Ohio Hotel & Lodging Association, Assistant Director of the Ohio Tourism Division, and Sales & Marketing Manager with the Steuben County Conference and Visitors Bureau.

Amir's thought leadership in tourism is often quoted by the media, and he has appeared in dozens of interviews with many national media outlets, including CNBC, MSNBC, Forbes, The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Los Angeles Times, etc. Amir holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in Political Science from the University of Dayton. On this episode of Destination on the Left, I'm excited to welcome back Amir Eylon for his third appearance on the show. Amir shared the latest data and trends from Longwoods International's recent research. He also walks us through the latest wave of the American travel sentiment study and how to interpret and apply those insights, particularly regarding the reallocation of traveler spending and the use of AI in trip planning. What You Will Learn in This Episode: How travelers are adjusting their spending habits to prioritize travel despite financial concerns Why there has been slow adoption of artificial intelligence in trip planning, and the potential impact of AI on the travel industry What the recent collaborative study by Destinations International shows about the impact of destination marketing on community well-being Some of the insights that Longwoods International's research provides into American travelers' intentions in leisure travel Support Longwoods International and Destinations International offers to those in the travel and tourism industry Understanding Travel Trends in the Face of Financial Concerns Amir highlights how travelers are finding ways to continue exploring the world by reallocating their spending, cutting back on retail purchases, and adjusting their accommodation levels. One intriguing trend he mentions is that people are combining trips into longer journeys, which is a huge shift in travel behavior. It's clear that despite economic challenges, the desire to travel remains strong. AI's Role in Enhancing, Not Replacing, the Travel Experience We also discuss the slow adoption of AI in trip planning, with only a fraction of travelers expressing interest or using AI tools for travel planning. This fascinating insight shines a light on changing travel preferences and shows that there are opportunities to further explore the potential for AI integration into destination marketing. Amir emphasizes that AI is not replacing but rather enhancing the travel experience for both travelers and industry professionals. Our discussion provides some golden nuggets into the AI implementation in the travel industry and its potential for future growth. Importance of Data and Research in Making Informed Marketing Decisions Amir stresses the invaluable role of data and research in understanding travel trends and making informed marketing decisions. I just love Amir's analogy about not being able to drive without a roadmap because it highlights the necessity of looking at data from different angles to derive meaningful insights and guide you to your end destination.

Shared mobility platform Bolt has revealed the extent to which its electric bike rental service has been used in its first year of operations in Sligo. Almost 6,000 unique users have taken 76,296 bike rides, equating to a staggering 153,741 kilometres ridden. This distance equals more than 370 round trips between Sligo and Dublin. Aside from these impressive numbers, further analysis of the data unpacks the interesting ways in which the service is being used. For example, the longest ride ridden was an almighty 47 kilometres. Not to be outdone; however, one user completed an unbelievable 530 trips in a year. It isn't just Sligo or Irish residents that are utilising the helpful service - it's proven a hit with tourists too. Almost 1000 of the 5,942 unique users had a phone number from overseas. Not only has the service been well received by citizens, the same is true of local businesses too. Bernadette Coffey, Sales & Marketing Manager at Sligo Park Hotel & Leisure Club: "There's nothing like hopping on a Bolt bike, whether to see the sights or for a quick spin around town. Bolt's service allows you to park up the car at Sligo Park and enjoy the rest of your holiday car-free if you wish. We're delighted that our visitors, holiday-makers and staff can take advantage of the offering." Bolt's aim is to offer a frictionless, comprehensive network that fits seamlessly into the lives of riders and pedestrians alike. Consequently, it engages with relevant groups - local authority active travel teams, councillors, residents, businesses, institutes such as universities - pre- and post-deployment of the bikes. The company is eager to continue to receive all forms of feedback at Ireland@bolt.eu. The data also reveals that traction with the service is particularly popular around public transport hubs, including near the train station. However, Bolt is constantly analysing usage in order to judge which parking locations are - or could be - helpful, as well as whether the amount of bikes deployed is relative to the level of demand. Sligo Councillor Marie Casserley said: "It's been such a positive partnership between Sligo County Council and Bolt and the statistics have proven that Sligo is ready to take the lead on a sustainable project such as this. Hopefully, many other local authorities will follow suit. It's equally as beneficial to locals as well as visitors, and this has to be a good thing for the community of Sligo." Bolt also offers its shared electric bike rental in Kilkenny, Wexford and Bray to a combined 12,000 users. They've taken 115,000 rides amounting to 238,000 kilometres. Bolt is in talks with several other councils keen to accelerate their active travel services in line with the National Development Plan and the Climate Action Plan. The company also offers taxis in Dublin and Cork. The recent launch of shared electric bikes in Bray in June made Bolt the first company to offer multiple transport modes (taxis and electric bikes) within the same app/ecosystem in Ireland. Bolt Operations Manager for Rentals in Ireland, John Buckley, said: "We're thrilled our electric bike service has been so embraced. We're lucky to have vast experience with micro-mobility across Europe. It constantly tells us that a high-quality, responsible service with affordable pricing will be popular with riders and pedestrians alike. The former gets a better alternative than traffic jams and maintenance costs, whilst the latter gets a city made for people, not private cars. I'm very happy to say Sligo has met and exceeded these expectations." The stats come hot on the heels of the European mobility leader announcing it has surpassed 150 million customers in over 45 countries and 500 cities, including more than 12 million using its micro-mobility (electric scooter and bike) services. Furthermore, Mikko Salovaara was named as CFO, with the company expecting to reach full company-wide profitability on a full net income basis over the next 12 months. More...

Amir leads the entire team responsible for developing and executing all facets of the organization, from program development to customer acquisition and retention. He joined Longwoods in 2015 from his previous role as Vice President, Partner Engagement with Brand USA, the public-private partnership serving as the destination marketing organization dedicated to increasing international visitation to the US. He led the team responsible for increasing Brand USA’s partnership base and ensuring that participants received excellent service throughout Brand USA’s deployment of joint marketing programs. During his tenure, Brand USA grew its base to 475 partners, composed of destination marketing organizations, convention and visitor bureaus, attractions, travel brands, airlines, and tour operators. Prior to joining Brand USA, Amir served as Director of the Ohio Office of Tourism. Under his leadership, the state’s marketing programs realized a tremendous return on investment and contributed to the growth of the state’s $40 billion tourism economy. The programs he developed leveraged industry and nontraditional partnerships that generated $14 in new state and local taxes for every $1 invested and included active participation by thousands of Ohio’s tourism-related businesses. Amir has also served as Executive Vice President of the Ohio Hotel & Lodging Association, Assistant Director of the Ohio Tourism Division, and Sales & Marketing Manager with the Steuben County Conference and Visitors Bureau.

Amir’s thought leadership in tourism is often quoted by media, and he has appeared in dozens of interviews among many national media outlets, including CNBC, MSNBC, Forbes, The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Los Angeles Times, etc Amir holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in Political Science from the University of Dayton. On this episode of Destination on the Left, we welcome back Amir Eylon, President, CEO, and Partner of Longwoods International, who first appeared on the podcast in April 2020. We reflect on the travel trends over the last 12 months, as revealed by research conducted by Longwood International’s Traveler Sentiment Trackers. Amir also speaks to the expectations of the newly conditioned traveler and what first trips will look like for many Americans after a year of shutdowns. He also explores the data on opportunities that can be found for DMOs with the return of day-trippers. What You Will Learn: What recent data from the Traveller Sentiment Trackers shows, and why the outlook for travel is optimistic Where and why people are traveling – including the most popular domestic destinations Traveler opinions on safety and cleanliness protocols in the communities they visit Why the resurgence of the day trip meant that overall volume wasn’t as low as expected over the last 12 months Newly conditioned traveler expectations and how DMOs can ensure they are catering to the increased desire to feel safe when making bookings Why it is essential to understand the importance of focusing on promotions rather than deep discounts Understanding Travel Plans in the New Normal Amir and Longwoods International were motivated to start their Travel Sentiment Trackers in March 2020 by a desire to help the entire travel industry. The data that their research has circulated has been invaluable in understanding how the American traveler feels about vacationing in this new normal and how DMOs can best serve them going forward. He discusses why overall volume in the US wasn’t as low as the travel industry expected and explains which domestic destinations have proved to be the most popular over the last year and why. Traveler Expectations in 2021 Amir digs into the expectations of newly conditioned travelers and why destinations need to be mindful not to roll back their cleanliness and flexibility protocols too quickly. He also addresses the new-found popularity of the day trip and how destination marketers can leverage those first visitors to promote their community and popularise short overnight breaks. The data shows that clarity will remain an important part of what visitors expect when researching destinations in the future and how communities can ensure that travelers feel safe by continuing to be transparent about precautions still in place to protect guests.

Alyssa Milton, Sales & Marketing Manager, with Compass Hospitality, joins me from Cardiff, Wales. She talks about Compass’s 39 hotels located in the U.K., Thailand, and Malaysia. Key takeaways: Of the 16 hotels in the U.K. some are a budget brand called Citrus, 2 are spa properties. All properties are now open. A couple of the hotels are close to local hospitals and along with a contract with NHS, managed to remain open throughout the pandemic. Staycations are big with coastal properties doing well. Messaging safety protocols are met. Advice for hoteliers? Keep going. U.K. hospitality has been through a lot: recessions, Brexit anxiety, now this. Next year is looking healthy. Just keep going.
Today Mary is chatting to Raquel Noboa from Fifty Shades Greener. Raquel has worked in the Hospitality industry for the past 23 years, working in hotels around the world since the age of 17. She knows the industry well, the challenges it faces and the mind-set barriers to greening a Hospitality business.Raquel started her own green journey at Hotel Doolin, in Ireland. She was working there as the Sales & Marketing Manager in 2012 when the Hotel decided to start a Green Hospitality programme and Raquel was chosen as the new Hotel Green Manager. Within 2 years of implementing Raquel’s green actions, they reduced their energy by 30%, waste by 40% and water by 25%. They also won every green award in Ireland and she positioned the Hotel as a leader in the Sustainable travel market.Raquel believes in small wins, and going at your own pace, because greening should not make people jump through hoops, it is about knowing the environmentally sound options that are available and applying those actions that make sense to each business. Starting small, get the big wins, and then look at possible investment projects to become even greener. She is a fountain of common sense!Recommended book Ethical Business- Fifty ways you can help protect people, the planet and profitsby Sarah DuncanContact Raquel at www.fiftyshadesgreener.ieContact Mary atmary@burrennaturesanctuary.ie

In this episode of Destination on the Left, Amir Eylon, President and CEO of Longwoods International, joins us to share his story and talk about market research in travel and tourism. Amir discusses some of the trends he has seen as DMOs rush to respond to the COVID-crisis, and he talks about the changes in traveler sentiment as the pandemic continues to unfold. What You Will Learn in This Episode: Amir’s journey into destination marketing and the travel and tourism industry How Longwoods Intl. is tracking traveler sentiment How Amir is seeing destinations respond to the global pandemic How Longwoods Intl. is adapting their business model to meet the needs of the COVID-crisis How destinations are using creativity to respond to the pandemic How traveler sentiment has changed since the pandemic was declared a national emergency Why crises produce some of the travel and tourism industry’s best work The short term and long term responses we are seeing in DMOs across the country Traveler Sentiment Amidst the COVID-Crisis Amir Eylon is the President and CEO at Longwoods International, a respected leader in market research that helps drive destinations toward their goals. Amir and his team have been tracking traveler sentiment for years, but in the midst of this global pandemic, Longwoods International has started tracking traveler sentiment every week. Their objective is to inform and serve the travel and tourism industry as we collaborate to determine the best response to the COVID-crisis. Researching Traveler Sentiment Amir is a marketer who happens to run a market research company, so he speaks our language. He understands how to use research to produce robust marketing strategies and he has been in the travel and tourism industry for almost thirty-two years. In destination marketing, research not only provides us with a roadmap of where to go, it provides us with information about whether our strategy is working. It enables us to accomplish more with our ideas and resources which is especially important when the going gets rough. A Light at the End of the Tunnel Some of our industry’s best work has come out of crises. And be it 9/11, the great recession, or the COVID-crisis, the great minds of travel and tourism have continued to shine by taking creativity, collaboration, and partnerships to a new level. Traveler sentiment has changed drastically since the pandemic was declared a national emergency. The numbers are not necessarily surprising, but it’s not all bad news either. The silver lining in all of this is that Americans are still looking to travel in the next six months. Many trips have been postponed or canceled, but there is a light at the end of the tunnel and a beacon of hope that we will all make it through.

300 Years! That is how long Caffe Florian in Venice, Italy has been in continuous operation serving Venice and the world. In those years Cafe Florian has served as the cultural hub for millions of Venicians and travelers privileged to experience its art, events, unique service of food, coffee, drinks, and chocolate. Today it is all carried out in the original way past patrons like Charles Dickens, Lord Byron, and Casanova would have experienced it. To celebrate today's 300th broadcast of Keys to the Shop (including our shift break ep.) I sat down with the resident authority on all things Florian and Venice, Stefano Stipitivich. Stefano is the Art Director for Caffe Florian and has worked there for 33 years! We will be speaking to him through a translator, Cristiana Rivolta, the Sales & Marketing Manager at Florian. (You will hear Stafano in the background mostly and Cristiana in the foreground.) In our conversation we discuss the history of Florian, how it has evolved, the secret to it's longevity, how they hire and train their staff, how they keep up with the times while being true to the past, the values that drive their dedication to delivering a perfect customer experience, and more. I have read about Caffe Florian in coffee history books and to get to speak with them is surreal and an honor indeed. It all really impresses upon me the the kind of impact coffee houses have had over time and will continue to have through you and I. Enjoy!

Tiffany & Co. needed to train security officers to follow an important process when they suspect someone of shoplifting. The target audience rarely actually encounters a situation that allows them to apprehend a shoplifter. They must remember and apply Tiffany's Five Elements of Proof EXACTLY or risk a public relations catastrophe. Tiffany and Co. went to Artisan eLearning to create something memorable and challenging for their learners… and the idea for Catch It was formed. Amy Morrisey is the President of Artisan E-Learning and serves as Sales & Marketing Manager. As President, she stays focused on maintaining the high standards their clients have grown to expect. She believes that “staying close to our clients, our people, and our work is a smart way to do that.” One of her favorite things to do in the e-learning world is to jump in with a client to write a storyboard that is creative and application-based. Before working with Artisan, Amy spent 17 years in corporate training and development predominantly teaching leadership development and coaching teams and executives. She currently serves on the board of ATD Detroit.

Listen you guys who own and manage restaurants, don't think that offering your hostesses and female servers your dick and unlimited use of your Amex card is the kind of investment in your business they're looking for. Would you make the same offer to Jose or Marco? No! Then why do it to Cassandra? On this episode of Tip Not Included, Host Eric Levine is joined in the studio by Stephanie Trevino, a woman who's worked across the biz for years and yes, has been offered "investment opportunities" that she's been smart enough to turn down. Like many, Stephanie stumbled into the restaurant world. With a broken tailbone and looking for a job where she needed to stand, Stephanie got her first restaurant gig as a hostess. Years later, and armed with a wealth of war stories, Stephanie, based in NYC, is now the Sales & Marketing Manager for an international restaurant chain. In their sit down, Eric and Stephanie traverse the restaurant landscape, highlighting how women who want to start their own operations either need a power lesbian behind them or one of them is on their knees; paying for an overpriced taco (it's all about the glamour, dahling), and the lunacy of an industry that pays its employees 30% less than they should be paid and expecting customers supplement the rest. And if you ever wanted to know which celebrities worked where before they became household names, listen in. Eric reveals the former employees for Lady Gaga, Chris Rock, James Franco, Jennifer Hudson, and more. Plus, Eric asks you - what's your fear of failure? Think about it. Coz at the end of the day, as he correctly points out, you should be more scared of mediocrity. Eric would love to hear from you. Contact him at: eric@tipnotincluded.com

Starting from the bottom of the company at 19 years old as a 100% commission based, face to face, cold calling sales rep, over the years, she worked her way through as many promotions as she could and grew her own successful sales offices, recruited and trained over 200 + staff, and was invited to speak at national conferences, winning numerous international awards. Katrina knew that with the tools, mind-set and experience she had developed during those 5 intense years, she was ready to start her own business, and after attending Progressive Property's Multiple Streams of Property Income Event in Manchester a few years ago – she knew exactly what she wanted to do! It seemed that the Rent to Rent investment strategy was absolutely perfect! Since starting her rent to rent company in July 2013, Katrina and her fiancé Alex Szepietowski have won the Progressive Property VIP Investors of the Year Award, as well as Alex winning the Property Investors Deal of the Year Award. Katrina has spent the past 18 months systemising & developing her business, building a powerful team, and ensuring their foundation is as strong as possible to continue to Scale Up. This year Kendall Bailey are forecasted to turn over £ ½ million, she plans to expand the Kendall Bailey R2R Academy and double the size of the rent to rent portfolio.

Per Ahlberg, CEO of Per Capita AB, discusses Sweden's different approach to dentistry. I am a Web-entrepreneur that has now worked in 10 years within the dentistry in Sweden. I am now working in my own company Per Capita AB together with some of the most dental skilled people, institutions and companies. 2008 I founded www.Dental24.se. In 2010 I was nominated to The Web Entrepreneur of the year by InternetWorld, a leading Internet magazine in Sweden. I am born and live in Gothenburg on west coast of Sweden in the same town as professor P-I Brånemark who invented the implant for 50 years ago and where professor Jan Lindhe lives. In 2005-2008 I happened to work with the Brånemark implants, Procera and CAD/CAM solutions as Sales Manager for Nobel Biocare. Now I share corridor with a Nobel Prize winner in Medicine professor Arvid Carlsson at Sahlgrenska Science Park in Gothenburg. Before my job at Nobel Biocare I worked 10 years (1989-1999) as Sales & Marketing Manager for Novartis/Ciba Vision, a pharmaceutical and contact lens manufacture and in the IT industry for Oracle as Major Account Manager. In the mid 70th I was a foreign exchange student in San Jose, California. What I do today is to combine many of my skills in the dental industry. I also try to educate everyone that works professionally with dentistry in using modern technology and “thinking digital” (CAD/CAM incl. scanning, CBCT, digital documentation, communication, content marketing, etc.). Today Dental24 is a leading dental forum in Sweden that most dental people read and visit regular. I spend my days wondering, why isn’t the digital paradigm shift is going faster in dental health? For me it’s clear not only what will happen in the future but what is already happening right now. I think it might have to do with the mindset of key opinion leaders. Sometime we need use more multidisciplinary knowledge within dentistry. www.dental24.se per.ahlberg@dental24.se
