    430: Why Your Podcast Might Be More Important Than Your Website with Robb Wells
    Mar 31 2026
    In this episode, Robb Wells explains why Visit Beaufort shifted its focus from a traditional website to a video-first podcast strategy. He shares how "challenger" destinations can outmaneuver larger competitors by taking calculated risks on owned storytelling rather than just renting an audience through traditional ads. Robb dives into the "New Chapter" of the Inner Coastal Podcast, detailing how video vignettes now fuel their entire social media ecosystem. He also discusses the tactical shift in his team—prioritizing videographers and creators—to transform the DMO into a modern media house that prioritizes authenticity over polished commercials.

  • 429: How Utah Valley Built a Social Media Powerhouse with Bethany Bee

    429: How Utah Valley Built a Social Media Powerhouse with Bethany Bee
    Mar 24 2026
    Digital content specialist Bethany Bee from Explore Utah Valley joins Adam to share how a modern DMO can thrive on social media without a huge team or high‑end production. Bethany walks through her journey from teenage photographer to government communicator to tourism marketer, and how that background shaped her creator‑driven, test‑and‑learn approach. She explains why follower count matters less than ever, how trial reels and rapid experimentation fuel growth, and why low‑production, high‑creativity content consistently outperforms polished videos. Bethany also breaks down how she built a grassroots “UGC army” of local creators, why influencer pay transparency matters, and how DMOs can rethink partnerships to stretch their resources further. It’s a lively, practical conversation for any destination looking to modernize its social strategy and tap into the creator economy. Subscribe to our ⁠⁠⁠⁠newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠!
