Product not yet rated

Recorded On: 05/15/2024

The Event Impact Calculator (EIC) is easy to use, intuitive and requires a minimum number of inputs to receive a two-page output report. Subscribers of the tool appreciate the detailed report, its standard style, and the ability to choose which parts of the report to share with their various constituents. Therefore, interpreting the report and understanding the “inputs” that create the various outputs is crucial to delivering and communicating event impacts to your community. Join us for this interactive webinar as we review the EIC Output Report and how to interpret the impact numbers.

Presented by Destinations International and Tourism Economics as part of Destinations International's Advocacy Tools Series for 2024.
