The opportunity

Your destination doesn’t stop at arrival.

Attracting visitors is one part of destination marketing. Understanding their interests and experiences after they engage with Savannah is another.

What are they planning?

DMO IQ is designed to help connect more of those signals.

The consumer foundation

The destination experience comes first.

Savannah In My Pocket gives visitors a place to discover attractions, restaurants, businesses, events, and experiences. They save favorites, explore neighborhoods, and prepare plans.

As participation grows, eligible interactions contribute to relevant first-party intelligence. The consumer experience creates the opportunity for more informed destination decisions.

Visitor journey

Understand more of the visitor journey.

  1. Before arrival

    Stated trip plans, interests, selected places, and relevant future travel intent.

  2. During the experience

    Eligible app engagement, relevant geographic activity, and interactions with participating businesses.

  3. After the experience

    Repeat platform use, available feedback, and relevant engagement history.

An app interaction is never equated with a confirmed physical visit.

Origin markets

Understand where interest is coming from.

Explore visitor-stated origins and relevant market-level patterns. Identify changes in reported interest and upcoming trip plans.

Sample dataStated origins and trip plans are kept distinct from independently verified arrivals.

Neighborhoods

See how people engage with different parts of Savannah.

Explore eligible aggregated visitor location activity and neighborhood engagement where configured. Compare reporting periods. Understand the geographic distribution of platform activity.

Sample dataTwo-hour windows that ended at least an hour ago. Groups under 3 are hidden and thin slices read “Collecting” instead of a number. Final thresholds follow legal review.

Businesses

Connect the destination to its local businesses.

Understand how participating merchants and attractions appear in visitor discovery and engagement. Explore relevant views, saves, and other available signals.

Use that context to identify opportunities to support participating businesses and neighborhoods.

Sample data
Neighborhoods, last 7 days. Groups under 3 are never shown.

Experiences

Know what visitors are planning and enjoying.

Understand relevant itinerary interests, saved places, event interactions, and available feedback. Use this to inform destination marketing and product-development discussions.

Sample dataEvent interactions are not verified attendance.
What visitors did this week: views, saves, directions and check-ins. Saves are plans, not visits.

Economic intelligence

From visitor interest to economic opportunity.

Visitor spending matters to the destination economy. DMO IQ presents self-reported spending measures with clear definitions.

Our broader commerce vision introduces first-party transaction information for eligible purchases processed through the platform. The two sources stay separate on every page.

Built · switches on at launchSelf-reported spending is never described as verified sales. Platform transactions depend on the commerce rollout.
From signal to campaign. Nothing is sent; approval is a recorded decision in the showcase.

Intelligence to action

Illustrative

Turn what you learn into what you do next.

An illustrative example:

  3. Archer helps prepare a proposed campaign.

  4. Participating businesses are identified.

  5. Authorized personnel review the plan.

Partnership

Proposed · not agreed

More than an analytics license.

A proposed Savannah partnership connects the visitor experience, business participation, destination content, and relevant intelligence. Visit Savannah could help introduce the experience to visitors and coordinate destination participation. Cities In My Pocket provides the technology and agreed operational support.

Specific responsibilities would be established in a formal launch or pilot agreement.

Privacy and methodology

Know what the numbers mean.

  • The platform measures eligible activity from participating users. It does not independently measure everyone visiting Savannah.
  • Location-dependent features require the applicable permissions.
  • Institutional location figures use completed reporting periods.
  • Small groups are suppressed according to the implemented methodology: groups under 3 are hidden and thin slices read “Collecting” instead of a number.
  • AI outlooks are estimates, not guarantees.
  • Stated origins, trip plans, RSVPs and self-reported spending are labeled as what they are.
