Tourism Focus
We work exclusively with tourism clients. We do not work in any other industry. Break the Ice Media's clients benefit from our deep knowledge of the travel, tourism & hospitality industry. It's the difference between going to a brain surgeon over a generalist. By working in the travel, tourism & hospitality industry every single day, our team is the most informed on current trends and understands a wide variety of destination marketing strategies and tactics.
With a single focus, we go deeper, spend more time in the travel, tourism & hospitality industry and ultimately deliver maximum results to our clients.
