Media Launch Twin Towns - The Stars Room

A power point presentation was given to show the results of surveys gathered at workshops and collected from individual tourism industry operators in the region. The preferred focus of the commercials was "rest and relaxation," "family activities" and a "clean and green natural environment." Hence, each commercial reflected these very positive aspects of holidaying on the Southern Gold Coast.
Time for valuable networking was made available on the night and all feedback received in relation to the television commercials and media strategies was very positive. This was most encouraging to hear.
Following the official launch, NBN produced a news story on the Aussie Gateways project and the Southern Gold Coast media campaign. Also, a twenty minute, live radio interview with Leon Delaney at Radio 97 was recorded on the day following the launch.

Thank you to all members who attended the launch and to all who have supported the Aussie Gateways project. It is very gratifying to work as a team to promote the region.
Our experience in working with tourism industry operators in both the Northern Rivers and Southern Gold Coast regions affirms the message behind the acronym
T E A M - Together Everyone Achieves More!

All the best for the NSW school holiday season which begins on
Friday April 12th.
