ACA No.1
Advantages
Social media sites are great for building customer relationship and offers an incredible reach
and the opportunity to connect with customers in an entirely new way
Disadvantages
Visitors mainly go to social media sites to socialize, and are not interested in advertising
ACA.No.2
Advantages
Traffic generated can be extremely targeted
Disadvantages
Traffic is typically in the learning stage of the buying process; hence it is more important to
inform and teach than sell outright
ACA.No.3
Advantages
Social media tools are relatively inexpensive
Disadvantages
Social media can be a hard branding tool for small businesses, and it is not easy to build
awareness, create appeal and generate traffic
VII. Final Decision
Department of Tourism must develop more promotional ads for television,
radio and to spread it to social networking site. They should encourage fellow
Filipino’s to get more involve to “It’s more fun in the Philippines” campaign.
VIII. Detailed Action Plan
To become one of the top tourist destinations in the world, we have to
maintain and develop our natural wonders and man-made structures. The
government should give their full support to ensure that they will achieve the
target goals.
