CRC is an annual conference hosted by Perspective Group on behalf of the Canadian Resort Development Association (CRDA), a trade association dedicated to furthering the interests of the resort industry in Canada and throughout the world. This day and a half event is filled with panel of expert debates and educational sessions, and provides invaluable opportunities to spend time networking and exploring business opportunities with Canadian and International attendees. Operating in 34 countries, TripAdvisor is the world’s largest travel site, providing trusted advice from real travelers helping other travelers plan and experience the perfect trip. Its branded sites make up the largest travel community in the world with more than 260 million unique monthly visitors and over 125 million reviews covering more than 3.1 million accommodations, restaurants and attractions around the world. Additionally, TripAdvisor includes TripAdvisor for Business, a dedicated division that provides the tourism industry access to millions of monthly TripAdvisor visitors. As senior territory manager of the North Americas for TripAdvisor, McCullough’s focus is on prospective and existing large hospitality group clients, which now includes some of the timeshare resort developer giants who operate mixed-use properties and have portions of accommodation available on a nightly basis to the general traveler. The experience McCullough has gained at this consumer review centric site along with experience in the travel and hospitality industry working for companies such as Blackstone Private Equity, Orbitz and Smarter Travel Media makes him a notable speaker at this conference. “In this day and age, having a strong social media strategy that is unique to your business is essential, “says Mark McCullough, Senior Territory Manager, North Americas for TripAdvisor. “TripAdvisor is a global platform and offers a great service for businesses that offer rooms on a nightly basis. I look forward to sharing best practices and advanced, tested strategies for accommodation businesses looking to get the most out of their presence on the site.” Registration for the event is currently open.
