Dakota Scott, Community Relations with Destin/FWB Florida, was our special guest last week! She gave us a condensed view of what Destin/FWB is all about. Their mission is to make time spent here, whether visiting, working or living more valuable to all. We were surprised to learn that 74% of all travel inquiries use AI and AI is now the #1 travel site with traffic double to that of 2nd place, TripAdvisor. 90% use AI to compare travel plans and 74% trust what AI has to offer. Google traffic is down 25% as a result. We appreciate the time you spent with us, Dakota!

Every 3rd Thursday we focus on education. This can include anything from learning how to promote your business through social media or having a special guest speaker to inform us of things going on in our community. This past Thursday, we had the honor of having, Bobby Wagner, Mayor of Destin join us! He updated us on what’s going on in our community and shared his methodology for building out his campaign and some insight into his "why."

We also welcomed a new member! More on him to come 😊
