Partnership for tourism courses

An organisation that represents around 600 tourism and hospitality businesses across Mid Wales has announced a new partnership to deliver training courses focused on increasing sales and profits.

MWT Cymru has signed up Tourism Growth to deliver courses with member businesses receiving a preferential rate. The courses begin with ‘Boosting your sales on social media’ at Aberystwyth University on June 8 followed by ‘Getting more sales from your website’ at The Metropole Hotel, Llandrindod Wells on June 28.

The courses, which start at 10.30am and finish at 4.30pm, are business specific and completely focused on helping tourism operators increase sales and profits. They are run by tourism sector specialists, who have a breadth of experience, knowledge and best practice from working with tourism employers, especially smaller independent businesses, all around the UK.

Each course is available to any tourism related business at a preferential rate of £89 +VAT - a £40 saving - per person for MWT Cymru members.

MWT Cymru’s chief executive Val Hawkins said: “Tourism Growth’s courses fit perfectly with our aims and objectives: supporting our members to take advantage of every opportunity to market their businesses more effectively to a wider audience, particularly online and helping them build reputation, increase profits and enhance the overall quality and attractiveness of Wales as a great destination.”

The courses may be booked online at https://tourismgrowth.co.uk/ or through MWT Cymru on Tel: 01654 702653.
