Madden Voyage
Investing in destination intelligence is vital to evolving your KPIs and enhancing your situational awareness
Voyage is Madden’s industry-leading, destination intelligence platform. The data analysis tool enables DMOs to inform strategies, measure impact, and fulfill their fiduciary duty—all at an affordable cost.
You already have a baseline understanding of your destination and your travelers, but Voyage can uncover new insights that change your team’s mindset, such as revealing a top origin market you didn’t know about or a well-traveled point of interest that could lead to marketing opportunities.
It is also vital for destinations to evolve their performance metrics beyond traditional key performance indicators. Your work is so much more than clicks and impressions. Voyage will help you shift towards measuring your work by key performance impacts, such as visits from key markets and tourism-related revenue.

Custom Data Projects
It’s vital to collect destination intelligence, however, putting insights derived from data into action is more important. Using insights from Voyage, one of Madden’s Midwest clients was able to find high correlation between the DMO’s paid efforts and short term rental stays in their destination. Equipped with data visualizations exported from Voyage, the DMO was able to begin conversations with its state legislator on potentially collecting short term rental tax.
