Mehmet Dahaoğlu, Deputy Chairman of the Alanya Tourism Promotion Foundation, said, "In our promotional activities, we primarily use social media."
At the tourism fair held in Warsaw, the capital of Poland, promotional activities were carried out by the Alanya Tourism Promotion Foundation (ALTAV), and applications for an Alanya vacation giveaway were collected from social media influencers who were contacted. At the meeting held yesterday, the main and alternative winners of the giveaway were determined through a lottery from among the applications. Anna Maria Bielecka, a member of ALTAV and the President of the Alanya Polish Association, who conducted the draw, stated that they are working to attract Instagram, Facebook, YouTube users, and travel bloggers who reach a wide audience to Alanya whenever possible. Mehmet Dahaoğlu, Vice President of ALTAV and the Alanya Tourism Operators Association (ALTİD), emphasized that social media holds the top position in the promotion pyramid, stating, "With the inclusion of smartphones in our lives, we are increasingly using social media in our promotional activities. The promotional impact of social media is much higher than other methods. We will continue this work in all fairs, starting with the Netherlands fair to be held between January 9-13."
