Whatever stage you are at, here is an opportunity designed to assist you, as a tourism-related business, marketing group or an accommodation provider, to make more money from the internet.

Fort William PH33 7LX

10.00 am – 3.00 pm - Admission free

Following the highly successful e-commerce roadshow in Inverness, the Scottish Tourism Forum (STF) is delighted to bring this show to Lochaber.

Comments from the Inverness event included:

  • Renee Looper - 'Brilliant -such enthusiasm.'
  • 'One to one sessions were absolutely brilliant.'
  • 'Put me on the right road, the road I knew was there but didn’t know where to look.'
  • 'Best event in nine years.'

STF knows that there are many businesses which have great websites but want to take them a stage further. However, equally, there are others which are not convinced that they could make more money and or have better client relations if they develop a good website.

This is a workshop that is practical and aimed at taking businesses down the journey to being fully web-enabled and web-competent. The event is designed to suit all levels by including one-to-one sessions which allow you to work with your chosen speaker and help answer individuals' queries.

Attend this truly interactive, engaging and meaningful day – review your internet activities and realign your objectives with the help of newly emerging opportunities.
