Deals on ExploreMinnesota.com

Effective in 2009, we no longer feature a Travel Packages section on our consumer website.  Instead, we now offer a singular focus on Deals.

If you are already subscribing to the Deals marketing component, you are familiar with the user-friendly tool, and the ability to instantly load your offers, whether for the weekend ahead or more long term. Minimal formatting is required, and you can determine what might be of best value for your potential guests. The Deals exposure is significant on the consumer website. Promotions appear in sidebars throughout the site, as well as under the Deals page, and in regular newsletters to which consumers subscribe.

All of this is available for a nominal annual fee - a real bargain in the online marketing arena. For more information please go to the Advertising section of this site and explore all the opportunities.
