One of the basic elements of tourism promotion is direct marketing, a
mechanism used to support the sale of the country’s products and
destination to potential tourists, travel agents and planners of congresses,
conventions and incentive travel. The basic tools of direct marketing are:
toll-free telephone numbers for tourist information, Internet, fax, e-mail,
distribution of pamphlets, and marketing aimed at specialized segments. These
services are provided at an international level only.
