Tourism Growth VisitHATTIESBURG is a Destination Marketing Organization with a track record of tripling the city’s tourism since 1990 and a high impact on the local economy. This indicates strong potential to partner on large-scale events, conferences, and marketing campaigns to drive overnight stays and boost ancillary spending.

Leadership Expansion The organization recently appointed a new Director of Destination Sales and Services to attract meetings, conferences, and group business. This presents a compelling entry point for sales outreach focused on corporate events, associations, and regional partnerships seeking reliable destination services.

Funding Scale With substantial revenue estimated between 50 and 100 million dollars, VisitHATTIESBURG has budgetary capacity for expanded marketing programs, collaborative destination campaigns, and sponsorships with partner venues, hotels, and attractions.

Digital Engagement Active use of multiple digital channels and platforms (Trade Desk, AWS, WordPress, Shopify, Google Workspace, Hootsuite, Mautic, Piwik PRO) signals openness to data-driven marketing partnerships, retargeting efforts, ecommerce integration, and enhanced content distribution for visitor acquisition.

Resilience & Safety Award recognition for resiliency and prior campaigns focused on safe travel position VisitHATTIESBURG as a trusted partner for post-pandemic travel recovery initiatives, cross-promotional safety campaigns, and visitor confidence programs suitable for sponsorships and co-branded marketing.
