Abstract

Modern business in tourism, in addition to the desire for greater productivity, cost-effectiveness and increased profits, is characterized by the speed and efficiency in which information becomes the key resource of each tourism company / organization. The implementation of ICT information communication in a modern business environment plays a key role in the process of improving and increasing the efficiency of management, that is, the business performance of enterprises that are engaged in tourism and its positioning on the market. By generating innovation, ie implementing modern information and communication technology, significant results are achieved in raising the quality of goods and services, organization of work, marketing, and consequently management in tourism. At the same time, regular monitoring and evaluation of the business performance of companies in a modern business environment with the application of ICT are the basis for establishing competitive advantage, but also for successful connection with the international community. Due to this importance of ICT and the Internet, future managers are working to work. The author's attempt is to point out the importance of innovations and their introduction to tourist organizations with the aim of improving management and professional performance. Popular Internet services today provide an opportunity for people to communicate in real time with unknown people in remote areas. In this way, experiences on certain tourist destinations can be exchanged. It is this communication that complicates the business process and leads to the emergence of large amounts of data, and it is necessary to use modern solutions as well as the development of digital technologies that characterize significant expansion, as well as its potential application in many areas. The question arises where this segment of digital marketing improves the branding of the destination, or how does it encourage potential visitors to create a picture of the destination, and existing to maintain the destination experience? The solution to this question is one of the focus of this paper.
