YOUNG CONNECTOR

We learnt from the quantitative study that motivations are the key segmentation criteria for both actual & potential visitors to Caribbean

ALEXANDRIA | PROJECT CARIBBEAN TOWARDS AN ACTION PLAN

Deep Dive into the customer motivationsThere is a wide range of motivations that impact on the choice of the Caribbean destination:

RELAXING / ENJOY BEACH & SUN: is a default still a differential Caribbean property vs. other destinations (ie. USA & Europe).

SHOPPING:is a complement that become a must among families & experienced travellers, but is never a reason in itself.

MAKING NEW FRIEND/GET TO KNOW NEW PEOPLE: is a key drivers for the young target choice and is secondary for the others.

SEEKING FOR NEW THINGS/ OUT OF ROUTINE.might be explore differently depending on the target: it means adventure (youngers), entertainment (families) and unique/genuine experiences to enrich life (experience travellers).

CULTURAL ENRICHMENT/CULTURAL ACTIVITIES: becomes relevant for Caribbean in 3 possible perspectives: music (youngers) natural sights (families) and local gastronomy (experience travellers).

DIVING: is a narrow motivation. The Caribbean offers in Brazilian potential demand perception a full horizon of opportunities in “reconnecting with nature”, undersea discoveries, social imaginary of surf as well as other “natural sports” such as hiking and birth watching.

TO BE SUCESSFUL IN PROMOTING BRAZIL TOURISM TO CARIBBEAN ITIS ABSOLUTELY KEY TO SEGMENTATE THE DEMAND ACCORDING TO MOTIVATIONS
