ROOST Efforts in Marketing Hamilton County
With the support of County staff, ROOST has helped secure an updated website for the county marketing initiatives. This required a complete overhaul of navigation and design, copy writing, and content. Now, in its first year of launch, we are establishing benchmarks upon which to compare future work.
LEISURE MARKETING
ROOST is currently engaged in updating content on the new AdirondackExperience website. Paid campaigns help drive traffic to the site, as does the social media profiles maintained by in-house staff: Facebook, Twitter, Youtube channel, and Pinterest board.
DMP
Four regions within Hamilton County have completed Tourism Destination Area workbooks (TDA) in conjunction with our staff. Destination Master Plans are currently in process.

Funding Streams
Hamilton County supports the 2018 marketing efforts with a budgetary contribution of $195,000 from the general fund. Of these funds, $105,959 is matched through the I Love NY Matching Fund Program to bring the full county marketing program to $300,959.
$55,000 is expended through Regional Cooperative programs which market the Adirondacks as a whole through the work of the Adirondack Regional Tourism Council. The balance is used to market Hamilton County as a tourism destination and support the Destination Master Planning programs.
