Organization: Visit Spokane
Mission: Visit Spokane has served as Spokane County's destination marketing organization since 1985. Through our efforts, we bring economic benefit to our community through enhanced employment opportunities and economic prosperity for hospitality and tourism businesses. We are the marketing arm for the convention center as well as the main organization promoting the region to leisure and business travelers alike. We promote the delightful attributes of the region establishing Spokane as a must-visit destination for all travelers.
Activities: Visit Spokane created and implemented innovative sales and marketing strategies across targeted market segments to expand convention and leisure visitation to the region, increasing visitor spending, and attracting additional overnight stays. Visit Spokane reinforced these strategies with advertising and public relations initiatives and social media opportunities targeted to deliver increased visibility, identity and visitation to Spokane County. We served as the official destination resource for both residents and visitors to enhance their experiences and increase spending. Visit Spokane acted as an advocate for expanded public meeting, cultural and sports facilities to increase market potential and shared intelligence based on market research to help the community in economic development decision making.
