The Missouri Division of Tourism's summer promotion with McDonald's officially is a "GO!"

Beginning today, industry partners can visit Industry.VisitMO.com to upload deals and discounts for Road Trip Rewards. To create a listing, you will be required to log in to your existing VisitMO.com account, or create a new account by clicking on "Register" in the top, right-hand corner of the page.

Each destination is allowed up to five individual deals. It's important that you offer a valuable deal - one that will be sure to drive traffic to your destination or business.

While listings can be added or deleted at any time throughout the promotion, you are strongly encouraged to upload your deal or discount by April 29. Having the reward uploaded by that date will help ensure your listing is seen by consumers when the Division of Tourism's earned media efforts begin on May 9.

When visiting Industry.VisitMo.com, please understand the system may respond slowly, especially today, as many destinations may be attempting to use the system at once. Both new and previously registered industry portal users will find an updated, step-by-step set of instructions for adding new listings or updating existing listings on our portal's home page.

The Missouri Division of Tourism will host a third webinar on the Road Trip Rewards program at 3 p.m. April 14. Please mark your calendars so you can receive updates on the promotion, and recommendations from the state on how to make this program work for your business. More details on the webinar will be available next week.

Please continue to contact Shari Childs (formerly Shari Wells) at Shari.Childs@ded.mo.gov with questions regarding the promotion.
