Development Pathways
What are Development Pathways?
We created a series of Development Pathways to make the process of developing your tourism business as simple as possible.
We recognise that the amount of information available today can be overwhelming, so we have curated checklists and resources to simplify the business development process by giving you access to the right information, when you need it.
How to use the Development Pathways
Begin with the ‘Start Here’ Development Pathway. It is your ‘Tourism 101’ checklist.
Begin with the ‘Start Here’ pathway, your essential Tourism 101 checklist covering the foundational steps to establish and operate a successful tourism business.
Once complete, you can explore the additional Development Pathways that best align with your target markets and experience offerings. Choose the ones most relevant to your goals and complete as many as suit your business needs.
Industry Development Managers (IDMs)
Destination Southern NSW employs two IDMs to assist you with your business development journey.
You’re welcome to explore the content independently, but we recommend connecting with your Industry Development Manager early in the process. As tourism experts, they can help you navigate the pathways more efficiently and tailor your development journey to suit your specific business needs.
