PLANNING

How Many UNESCO Ecotourism sites, mainly Wildlife or Marine Sanctuaries, Parks, and Reserves, Have Detailed Ecotourism Volunteer Plans?

54% Of All Sites

Manage your success! Without a Master Plan to manage Ecotourism growth and impact, your organization, environment, and society suffer from huge overtourism.

Our detailed volunteer plans make sure that you set yourself, your staff, and your society up for success by helping you find, recruit, and manage volunteers that provide you the key support you need. Both locally and globally. Our step-by-step guides make sure that your economy and environment grow healthily together.

POLICIES

By How Much Does Ecotourism Site Damage Decrease When Visitors Are Clearly Educated On What They Can And Cannot Do?

A 76% Decrease

Education creates empathy! Without proper guides and policies on how visitors behave, major damage occurs, from social conflicts to ecological destruction, and more.

As managers of Government Projects, Non-Profits Organizations, and Tourism Businesses, we know the challenge of applying behavioural codes. Our plans include fully detailed codes and policies, both as written manuals and visual aids for posters and signs, making sure that people from all parts of the world understand the policies in place.

PEOPLE

By How Much Less Damage Do Ecotourism Sites Experience When Proper Volunteers Are Present, In Good Numbers, On-Site?

A 68% Decrease

Setup supporting structures! As an NGO or Government Agency, having the right people on-site in the right numbers is the best way to create fast and reliable feedback loops to site managers for immediate action to issues that arise.

Our experience with managing numerous volunteer and project teams has taught us well. The Master Plan, through measuring the carrying capacity of each site, describes in detail the numbers and roles of the specific volunteers needed to create the most optimal feedback loops.

PROFITS

How Much Of An Ecotourism Site’s Revenue Must Be Retained By Site Staff To Ensure Ongoing Site Improvements And Maintenance?

Minimum 50%

Elevate their enthusiasm! Most revenue goes back to general government funding, causing lower site quality and much lower volunteer and staff enthusiasm for environmental protection.

Our plan details how to make and keep more revenue from the site, what fee structures to have for tourists and locals, what site maintenance priorities to focus revenue on, what Fines to issue for rule-breaking, and how volunteers can play a key role in making all of this possible.

Our Process

Kick-Off

Define Project Sign-Off and Initiation

We meet with you to get the formal go-ahead for the project. Then we work with you and your team to understand the current Ecotourism status, limitations, opportunities, and risks. Once your optimal future state is defined, with exactly what you hope and expect, we lay out the structure of a plan to get to that goal from where you are right now.

Discovery

Discover Market Research and Plan

We research your biggest local (and even global) Ecotourism competitors and understand what infrastructure, revenue generating, volunteer recruitment, and tourism support strategies are working for them that we can make work for you instead.

Design

Design Content and Structure

We meet with you and your team to capture the measurable and specific Ecotourism goals for each of your focused sites. We create a high-level plan and review it with you. Once the strategic direction is accepted, we begin creating more detailed strategies and guides, working closely with your team for both content and structure.

Registration

Do Network and Registration

We work with your team to verify that all Ecotourism sites are properly listed on Google and Social Media. We guide them on how to complete registration for all yet to be done. For those platforms you are already on, we optimize all of the content and design to align with the new strategic goals.

Final Delivery

Debut Finalized Master Plan Presentation

We formally present the whole Master Plan, reviewing all the major discoveries, details, and recommendations. We let you know both what the highest priorities and most easily actionable items are and how to implement them. We walk you through all frameworks, policy creation, volunteer/staff assignments, and revenue generation. Then, with your feedback, we integrate any changes you may wish to make and complete all remaining technical tasks.

Hand-Over

Deliver Guides and Support

We transfer all administrative IDs and passwords to you for all Ecotourism network and assistance websites we have registered you on. We provide excellent user guides to help your staff take over the administrative tasks needed to ensure that all registered site information stays current and effective. But that is not the end though as we will always provide you with ongoing support and strategic advice as your Ecotourism strategy develops into the future.
