Gay and Lesbian Tourism is chockablock with actionable advice from the pioneers in gay travel, who will help you avoid all-too-common pitfalls and position your gay tourism campaign for success."

"We applaud Jeff Guaracino and his efforts to provide companies news to the GLBT market with a guide for market success. In 2006, we were able to track well over $5 million in business from the gay and lesbian community, and we know that number is much higher if you count community members that have not yet identified themsevles through our customer loyalty programs."
Michael Depatie & Niki Leondakis, Kimpton Hotels and Restaurants

"Marketers must not forget that people want to be invited. For gay and lesbian travelers who aren't sure if they are going to be welcomed for who they are, an invitation is definitely needed."
Meryl Levitz, President and CEO, Greater Philadelphia Tourism Marketing Corporation

"Gay and lesbian tourism is a global business and the competition is growing rapidly for GLBT meetings, conventions, sporting competitions and leisure visitors. Investing in a smart marketing program can enhance your image in the world marketplace and give your destination an advantage."
Honourable Charles Lapointe, President and CEO, Tourisme Montréal, Chairperson of the CTC Board of Directors

Gay and lesbian consumers comprise a powerful emerging segment that serious travel marketers cannot ignore. Central to our success in marketing to gay and lesbian travelers has been a core belief that policies of fairness and inclusion must be consistent, both inside and outside our company. Jeff Guaracino's new book underscores that effective marketers know their promise is hollow if workplace policies are not fair for LGBT employees.
