2022 Partner Resource Kit A collection of cooperative opportunities and tourism partner resources presented by the Amelia Island Convention & Visitors Bureau.
OVERVIEW 2022 Partner Resource Kit The Amelia Island Convention & Visitors Bureau (AICVB) was created by the Nassau County Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) in 2008 as the management marketing company for the Amelia Island Tourist Development Council (AITDC), which is responsible for the expenditure of the 5% tourism development tax (TDT) collected from overnight visitors staying in short-term (less than 6 months) accommodations on Amelia Island. Through the TDT funding, the AICVB is able to offer a free partnership to all tourism-related businesses. Tourism-related business partners have many opportunities to leverage this budget and brand positioning through cooperative advertising, promotions, and core services such as the AmeliaIsland.com website, social media channels and the Amelia Island Welcome Center. This Partner Resource Kit provides an overview of partnership opportunities currently available, instructions on how to participate, ways to stay informed and how you can be an active partner with Amelia Island's tourism industry. 2022 Opportunities Include COOPERATIVE OPPORTUNITIES (CO-OPS) PARTNER RESOURCE OPPORTUNITIES Email Certification Amelia Island Audubon International Green Lodging Flamingo Certification Food & Wine Calendar of Events Travel & Leisure Holidays, Festivals, Events Digital Advertising Special Event Offers Epsilon Event Calendar Promotion TravelZoo Promotional Participation TripAdvisor Value Card Content Seaside Salute (Military Discounts) Threshold 360: Virtual Tour Program Business Listings Wander Media: Video Marketing Program AmeliaIsland.com Print Magazines Visitor Guide Atlanta Charleston Charlotte Flamingo Food & Wine Texas Monthly Travel + Leisure Washingtonian CLICK TO SUBMIT CO-OP FORM bit.ly/co-ops22
