Does New Profile Make Sense

by Doug

We have developed a new profile to describe TecVana, Does it make sense to you? 

TecVana Corporation – Your Digital Outdoor Connection!

Achieving sustainable economic growth for many businesses and communities is highly dependent upon their ability to effectively use social media strategies and tactics to engage with new markets and the global economy. Today, progressive organizations realize that the power to shape the future now belongs to the people and that content is created through collaboration and public engagement. 

 TecVana Corporation, in partnership with Izumi Outdoors is committed to revitalizing the recreational outdoor industry by reinventing the marketing blueprint.  We examine the space between community or business assets, consumer desire and emerging trends to identify the real opportunity and convert it into the engine for sustainable growth.

 Through a unique Interactive Digital Gateway (IDG) we bring together the connected digital demographics (NetGeners) and the outdoor industry to form an “on-line” outdoor community motivated to collaboratively “co-create” a new generation of outdoor adventures that will appeal to the personal needs, preferences and lifestyle of today’s digital consumer.

 For the digital consumer, it offers a virtual one-stop single window retail gateway to new experiences, co-located services and exclusive opportunities such as online real-life gaming, promotions, contests, reality TV, virtual dollars, ambassador programs, customized outdoor adventures and much more.

 For TecVana clients, it provides an opportunity to discover new avenues for collaborative customer engagement, brand exposure, loyalty and increased sales. TecVana’s Digital Channel–to-Market (DC2M) leverages the power of Information Communication Technology (ICT), utilizes the process of engagement marketing and capitalizes on the strengths of social media to ensure continuously alignment with the realities of today’s ever-changing market.

 TecVana is developing a new age destination tourism industry, driving economic growth for rural society, improving the health and wellness of the younger “connected” generation, and establishing a renewed interest in outdoor recreation, such as sport fishing. TecVana is bridging the rural – urban divide!
