Fratzke helps destination marketing organizations, tourism authorities, and CVBs understand how their digital marketing strategy drives visitor demand. Powered by the Fratzke Benchmark Method™, we evaluate how search, content, paid media, social, digital experiences, and visitor journeys work together to inspire travel, strengthen destination visibility, and support tourism growth.
Travelers discover and evaluate destinations across search, AI recommendations, social media, travel content, reviews, maps, and countless other digital touchpoints. A Travel & Tourism Digital Marketing Audit evaluates how effectively your destination shows up throughout that journey—from initial inspiration and trip planning to choosing where to stay, what to do, and ultimately deciding to visit.
Our Travel & Tourism Digital Marketing Audit Helps You:
Your digital ecosystem can span destination websites, organic and paid search, AI visibility, social media, travel content, email, events, partner listings, maps, visitor guides, and meeting planner resources. We evaluate how these touchpoints work together to build destination awareness, inspire travel, support trip planning, and connect visitors with the experiences that make your city or region worth visiting.

Destination marketing performance is influenced by every visitor touchpoint. Pair your Travel & Tourism Marketing Audit with these complementary services to gain deeper insights and accelerate growth across your destination.
Whether you’re increasing leisure visitation, attracting meetings and conventions, improving destination visibility across search and AI platforms, strengthening partner exposure, or creating a more connected digital visitor journey, Fratzke’s Travel & Tourism Marketing Audit provides objective insights and a practical roadmap to help you move forward with confidence.
A Travel & Tourism Marketing Audit evaluates how your destination website, SEO and AI search visibility, paid media, content, social media, visitor journey, partner experiences, marketing analytics, brand messaging, and other digital channels work together. It also benchmarks your destination against competitors and translates the findings into prioritized recommendations and executive-ready deliverables.
Unlike broader Digital Marketing Audit Services, a tourism-specific audit considers destination discovery, visitor inspiration and trip planning, leisure and meetings audiences, tourism partners, competitive destinations, and the digital experiences travelers use when deciding where to visit.
For additional context on the underlying evaluation process, see How to Conduct a Digital Marketing Audit.
The audit accounts for the unique role destination organizations play in generating demand for an entire city or region rather than a single business. We can evaluate whether travelers discover your destination when researching where to go, whether your content gives them compelling reasons to visit, how effectively your digital experience supports trip planning, and how easily visitors can discover hotels, attractions, dining, events, neighborhoods, and other tourism partners.
Where meetings and conventions are an important part of your strategy, we can also evaluate the planner journey—from initial destination consideration and venue research through RFPs, destination resources, attendance promotion, and supporting content.
The process begins with discovery and data collection to establish the current state of your marketing. Findings are then analyzed and benchmarked using the Fratzke Benchmark Method™ and Fratzke Benchmark Index™. Your team receives an Executive Readout explaining the key findings, followed by a prioritized Growth Roadmap that identifies recommended next steps.
A Travel & Tourism Marketing Audit typically takes 3–4 weeks. Your team provides access to relevant marketing platforms, data, and existing materials and participates in the necessary discovery conversations. Fratzke conducts the analysis and benchmarking during the engagement and concludes the process with an Executive Readout and Growth Roadmap.
The audit gives leadership an objective view of current destination marketing performance and the gaps and opportunities that deserve attention. You can use the results to benchmark your destination against competitors, improve visitor acquisition, strengthen leisure and meetings marketing, identify opportunities across search and AI discovery, improve partner visibility, make more informed marketing investments, and organize recommended improvements into an actionable Growth Roadmap.
