“Many thanks for undertaking the e-mail US Department of Commerce post advertising campaign research. We were very pleased with the high response levels that the research achieved – much higher than we had anticipated which, of course, made the results more robust and reliable. You handled the project very well and I have had very good comments on the quality and presentation back from the Department of Commerce in Washington.”
Alan Waddell, Chief Operating Officer
The Visit USA Association (UK) Ltd
“The Capital Region USA partnership contracted with Dottourism to create an
online competition to raise awareness for the scenic byways experience in
Virginia, Maryland and Washington, DC.
The resulting MyRoadTripUSA online
campaign attracted sponsorships from two leading UK brand names; Hertz and
North America Travel Service, and generated 14,500 site visits, 6,300
competition entries, nearly 500 requests for additional information, and
2,250 opt-ins to our database.
Dot Tourism professionally managed the
execution of the campaign from start to finish and we couldn't be more
pleased with the results.”
Matt Gaffney, President & CEO
Capital Region USA, Inc.
“I approached Dot Tourism to develop a new character and viral marketing campaign to support our new online service – www.accommodationknowhow.co.uk. I have been really pleased with the results – Our new character – Mrs Pink and the viral marketing campaign have helped us reach our target customer in a friendly & innovative way. The campaign linked users to a quick quiz – www.accommodationknowhow.co.uk/prize with a prize drawer on successful completion, linked into an exclusive online offer. We plan to develop the Mrs Pink character further with Dot Tourism, using her on the website & e-alerts to help advise and support accommodation businesses.”

“We commissioned Dot Tourism for the production of a CD Rom in Mandarin and English focusing on the South East as a
destination and targeting the growing China travel trade. This was a particularly complex and challenging project which
needed a quick turnaround and I sincerely doubt whether any other company would have devoted the time and effort to produce such
a user friendly, efficient and attractive piece of collateral. Dot Tourism demonstrated true expertise and professionalism from
scoping, design and production, through to delivery. As a customer focused company, they paid great attention to detail, frequently
beyond the call of duty, to ensure the CD Rom met our needs; and this at a competitive cost in the market place. I would highly
recommend Dot Tourism if you are looking for seamless solutions to your multi-media needs. ”
Michael Black, Overseas Campaigns Manager,
Tourism South East
“We have commissioned Dot Tourism for several tourism e-campaigns and website marketing projects since 2001.
We are always extremely pleased with their efficient, friendly service and their in depth experience and knowledge of the travel & tourism sectors. They take special care to understand what is required, finding imaginative and well designed solutions and most importantly, always respecting our very tight deadlines!
I would recommend Dot Tourism to any organisation requiring a professional service at a very competitive cost! ”
Séverine Baey, Overseas Campaign Co-ordinator
Tourism South East
“Working with Dominic and the rest of the Dot Tourism team has always been a pleasure. The Farm Walks project had an extremely tight turn-around time and the website represented the most important element of our marketing campaign. Even though they were still working on our Rural Ways project, Dot Tourism were able to craft the website from conception to launch in a matter of weeks. Not only was the site to full specification with complete functionality but the design guided the rest of our project branding and communications. We have already commissioned additional work as a result! ”
James Blair, Development Officer
Tourism South East
“Rural Ways have been working with Dot Tourism for over three years on a variety of tourism projects, from web site design, content management through to cross media marketing campaigns. Throughout this time, they have performed above our expectations in terms of innovation, reliability and value. We would recommend Dot Tourism to any business and look forward to working with them again soon. ”
Rachel Simpson, Rural Development Programme Manager
Tourism South East
“I recently worked with Dot Tourism on a CD-Rom in both English and Chinese for Tourism South East. It was the first time I had worked on a CD-Rom and Dot Tourism guided me through the process with great patience and professionalism. The deadline was very tight and Dot Tourism worked long, long hours to satisfy the client's needs and ensure delivery on time. ”
Charmian Rex, Writer/editor specialising in tourism
Ex Editorial Manager at Visit Britain

Dot Tourism have designed an excellent website and produced a bilingual CD-ROM to promote the results of the project; all of this was made on time and to budget. We are very satisfied by the final results, but moreover we enjoyed the relations with Dominic and Dot Tourism who were very professional, patient and thoughtful to all our requirements. It was a real pleasure and I would happily recommend Dot Tourism to everyone. ”
