Jeff’s tourism marketing book, Gay and Lesbian Tourism: The Essential Guide for Marketing is a 176-page “how to” manual for destinations, hotels, airlines, cruise lines, tour operators and other companies in the hospitality industry who are seeking to learn the best practices in gay and lesbian marketing.

Readers will learn about how to apply the research; tips on building stakeholder support; strategies to win convention, meeting and international sports market business; find best practices in gay and lesbian marketing; and even a dictionary of terms particularly relevant to the gay traveler that could be used in marketing programs (and even terms that should be avoided!)
