It was great to have our CRUNCH mentor Shankar (from Accenture) come
visit us in Nowa Nowa today. He and Neil Smith, Andrea Lane and Gary
Yelen had a good chat about what the (f)route enterprise is.
It seems like it's shaping up as a community driven Travel Bureau :-) .
Where a) local businesses and b) tourists are both our 'customers' -
paying for the service we provide in creating, marketing and selling
(f)route 'packages' - slow art, travel, local experiences, accommodation,
(f)route breakfasts, supported walks/cyle tours, workshops, local
produce ... etc.
hmmm... a (f)route brand ... that helps develop local product ... then markets the experiences that fit the (f)route ethos.
... and continues to seek funding and partners to develop the (f)route experience/product.
Something like that anyway.
