Close your eyes and picture Dublin in your mind. What do you see?
What if we told you that right on Dublin’s doorstep, only a short drive or bus trip away from the city centre, you could find yourself bouldering over large outcrops slap bang in the middle of the fantastic Dublin Mountains or out discovering Dublin’s coastal beauty on a 54-foot ocean-going yacht?
You’ve sent numerous emails, you’ve pitched to the best of your abilities, you’ve even followed up with phone calls BUT you still seem to be getting nowhere with that PR person or Tourist Board representative. You may have even already featured their client in an article or blog post but now the conversation has suddenly gone quiet. Why?
If you are doing any kind of business you should be collecting leads so you can grow your business. In the travel business, it’s no different – travel bloggers, PR Agencies, DMOs, hotels, airlines, etc. all collect leads everyday.

Almost 240 years ago a group of upstarts in a backwater colony decided to declare independence from the United Kingdom – then the most powerful Empire on the planet. But it wasn’t just political freedom that emerged from this act of revolution. The emergence of new personalities, characteristics, and even language evolved as a result of this rebellion.
So, you’re excited to be in Dublin for TBEX, and you’ve also given yourself a few days extra to explore more of Ireland. Now the quandary: where to go? You likely want to experience all of what Ireland’s famous for: the gorgeous green countryside, the ‘Ireland traffic jam’ of cows being herded down a windy road, an other-worldly megalithic stone circle, the hospitality and craic of a traditional village pub that also doubles as a shop, the 1,000 year old romantic ruins populated only by sheep, the fresh Irish artisan foods, the cupon tae in a handmade crafts shop. `
When we talk about video, everybody assumes that video requires complex equipment, a big crew and plenty of time and money.
