Our Tourism Supporter partnership is really important to our business because it adds weight to what we value. It’s one thing to say we support the growth of local business and industry, but this partnership is proof. We want to see a thriving and developing Bendigo promoted – which is what Bendigo Tourism do. Our hope is that more businesses join us in supporting Bendigo Tourism because we all benefit when our city is promoted well.

We find that tapping into Explore Bendigo’s social media platforms – through boosted posts and competitions – is a valuable and cost effective way to promote our product offering. The practical support and advice we get helps to ensure our message goes out to the right people at the right time.

Always having a finger on the pulse, Bendigo Tourism has provided us with a network of like-minded businesses committed to increasing visitor numbers, extending the length of stay and repeat visitations. There is such an amazing quality and variety of attractions throughout the area. Coming from Loddon, it has been a great bonus for us to work and be included with the larger Bendigo region and give back as an ambassador.

Bendigo Pottery, as a Premium partner, has partnered with Bendigo Tourism to promote Bendigo as a diverse destination. Being a partner has extended the reach of our promotion beyond that of an individual business.
