    2015 Cape May County Tourism Conference What's Trending in Tourism? Meeting the Needs and Uncorking the Opportunities Cape May County Board of Chosen Freeholders Gerald M. Thornton, Director Leonard C. Desiderio, Vice Director E. Marie Hayes Diane Wieland, Director Kristine Gabor Cape May County Department of Tourism Will Morey 5/13/2015 [email protected] 2015 Cape May County Tourism Conference What's Trending in Tourism? The Department of Tourism is undergoing some changes in the way we conduct the business of marketing Cape May County as a destination. There has been no greater impact on the leisure tourism industry than the Internet and more specifically, social media. Every trip begins with research and technology is changing how that's done. Travelers can gather information, make reservations and open the hotel room doors from a hand held devise. Wearable technology is here and visitors expect to be connected at all times. Mobile-friendly marketing is the future with desktop travel booking declining in 2014. Free and seamless Wi-Fi is a must and no longer an amenity; not offering it to your customer can be a deal breaker. Social Media is powerful and far-reaching; every business can and is reviewed and rated in real time. Managing your online reputation is important; good or bad, it can go viral in minutes. As always, inconsistencies in what you promise and what you deliver will impact you today via mobile technology and well into the future since once it's out there in cyber space it stays out there.

    News Release Cape May County, New Jersey www.thejerseycape.com Contact: Diane Wieland, Director, (609) 463-6415 [email protected] AN ESCAPE TO THE JERSEY CAPE: TOWN BY TOWN Cape May County From the sandy beaches of the Atlantic Ocean to the natural strands along Delaware Bay, north to south and east to west, Cape May County has it all! Home to more than 100,000 year-round residents, the county welcomes literally thousands of visitors every year who enjoy the sun and sand, the birds and butterflies, the excitement and relaxation – and more – of a weekend, a vacation or an extended stay in Cape May County. Once primarily a summer destination, the county is quickly becoming more and more of a year-round resort. Cape May’s Victorian Week and winter holiday calendar extend to New Year’s Eve. Ocean City has a varied schedule of unique events including a First Night celebration. The Wildwoods celebrate their Doo Wop heritage with a rock and roll weekend every October and a growing list of attractions at the Convention Center draw big crowds. Part of the county’s charm is its history. A number of local museums and arts centers help preserve this history that goes back to the 1600s when whalers from New England, many of whom were descendants of the Pilgrims, followed the whales to this area. Cape May’s Victorian architecture, the stately colonial-era homes along Route 9 in 2 Cape May Court House and north plus Wildwood’s fun and funky Doo Wop styles and neon lights are all part of the county’s eclectic history.
