Local officials reviewing a strategy for city marketing and the municipality’s public image

A local authority also conveys what it stands for

 

A town’s image is not built solely through campaigns, tourism or external promotion. It also depends on how the local council shapes its identity, communicates its values, represents its area and instils confidence in residents, businesses, visitors and institutions.

Institutional city marketing enables the alignment of local identity, public communication, local leadership and the town’s reputation to build a coherent, recognisable and sustainable image.
