ACA National Conference 9-11 September | Presenter Spotlight 🔦

Despina Karatzias
In a world demanding constant content, how do camps and outdoor providers stay visible without burning out? In this high-impact and actionable presentation, small business digital educator and tourism mentor Despina Karatzias unpacks the attention economy and the marketing pressure it places on already stretched camp and outdoor operators. Through her presentation "CTRL+ALT+DELETE", Despina invites participants to hit reset, unpacking the digital conundrum, challenging conventional ideas of online success, and offering practical, sustainable marketing strategies that work even with limited time, tech, or team.
