Starting Up a Bed & Breakfast - Overview of the Tourism Industry in Australia
When you operate any type of tourism business you are part of the extensive Australian tourism industry. Many of the organisations within the industry can help you in areas of marketing, business excellence and professional development when starting up a bed & breakfast
When starting up a bed & breakfast, you can find that the structure of the tourism industry in Australia is often confusing for people who are just starting out. It consists of government agencies each with its own Minister and other key organisations as follows:
· Federal Government (Tourism Australia – Marketing and Business Development)
· State or Territory Tourism Government Offices (Marketing and Business Development)
· Regional and local tourism organisations bring marketing closer to home for you.
· Other organisations conduct accreditation programs, award star ratings, provide research statistics, etc.
· Member-based peak industry organisations
BBFAA is the national peak organisation representing your industry and providing members services which include Marketing, Advocacy, Networking, Mentoring, Newsletters and Industry Briefings, Discounts and Savings, and Professional Development Opportunities. The BBFAA Office is open from Monday to Friday 9.00am to 5.30pm eastern standard time. Enquiries: 1300 664 707 or admin@bbfaa.com.au.
