CREATING AN APP:
I love creating tourism apps for destinations and it wouldn’t be possible without the use of the Twixl Publisher plugin for InDesign. It’s an amazing tool that has allowed me to create some pretty amazing apps.

@twixlmedia I knew you all were on it. Thank-you! ;)

[Touch Point Designs @Apps4Tourism]

@twixlmedia I assume that this note from Apple (I also received the email) is something that you have a handle on and we as developers using your plugin are in good hands? :) Thanks for all you do. https://t.co/9HUsRjpvfL

It’s great to see the state of Washington realizing the benefit of investing in tourism. I hope the bill passes and that can once again have a state tourism budget. #Tourism https://t.co/5MnVkA1MMG

The 2017 fires in Seeley Lake, MT destroyed over 160,000 acres and shut down the town, destroying their tourism.

I reached out to them about creating a tourism app - at no cost - to help them rebound. I’m proud to announce that the app is available today in both app stores. :)

When I’m not designing tourism apps, I love to create tourist towns and attractions w/Cities Skylines - complete w/nat’l parks, museums, airports, and the occasional tsunami. You can see my latest creation here: https://t.co/RfxSJKLV6W @Cities_PDX #ImATourismNerd

Destination marketing does more than attract visitors—it drives economic growth and spurs jobs in local communities.
