Create:
1. Tour strategy with audience promise, market selection criteria, and stop priorities.
2. Market scoring matrix for choosing cities, venues, dates, and partner opportunities.
3. Experience concept with visitor flow, staffing roles, materials, and accessibility checks.
4. Pre-stop, day-of, and post-stop marketing calendar for every market.
5. Local partnership outreach plan with pitch angles and deliverables.
6. Lead capture workflow with consent language, CRM fields, and follow-up triggers.
7. Content capture plan for short-form video, photos, testimonials, and local proof.
8. Operations checklist covering permits, insurance, weather, storage, travel, power, and safety.
9. Measurement dashboard with stop-level KPIs and ROI questions.
10. Post-tour recap structure for leadership, partners, and the next tour decision.

Tips for Best Results

  • 💡Score markets before picking cities so the tour is not just a list of favorite locations.
  • 💡Separate the visitor experience from the operations checklist; both need owners.
  • 💡Capture consent at the event if leads will receive email, SMS, or retargeting follow-up.
  • 💡Build a stop-level recap so weak markets and strong markets are easy to compare.
