The ChallengeThe Challenge
• CVBs receive the lion’s share of their funding (82%) from public sources
• Unique position = external performance audits by local community stakeholders
• Lack of uniform approach to productivity reporting skepticism with CVB-supplied results

A Real External CVB AuditA Real External CVB Audit
“The [CVB]’s marketing program has not developed or implemented any formal monitoring and evaluation procedures or mechanisms to determine the effectiveness of its marketing activities…despite the acknowledged importance of a monitoring/ evaluation system…Instead, [CVB] relies on such VAGUE ideas as the health of the industry and such HAPHAZARD methods as what people tell them. While senior [CVB] officials acknowledged the LACK of a monitoring system, they claim at the same time that the overall success of the [CVB] during the last five years---the increase in visitors and growth of expenditures and tax revenues generated by these visitors---all indicate that the [CVB] marketing program MUST BE WORKING.”

The SolutionThe Solution
Develop an Accountability Mindset
CVB must be seen as a business by its investors
Account for the effectiveness of the investment
Establish standard definitions and measures for tracking and reporting CVB sales and marketing performance

The ProcessThe Process
Started in 2003
Initial CVB outreach - Survey– definitions used by CVBs– activity & productivity metrics– visitor characteristics– methods used to track specific
variables
![Page 11: IACVB Performance Measurement Initiatives ACME Annual Conference](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051818/5494519cb47959794d8b4a9c/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Nadler & Associates
Results of the SurveyResults of the Survey
• Good News– CVBs at all levels measure their activity
and productivity to some degree
• Bad News– CVBs use inconsistent definitions– Activity and productivity metrics measure
different things– ‘Data Rich’ but ‘Information Poor’
