Our regional DMO-Mt. Hood Territory has a subscription and we've used it for grant writing before. They also use PlacerAI. We asked them to run a report for us comparing visitor data pre-fire/Covid and 2024 (I wrote the grant in 2025) to see if there was a
 quantifiable impact from the wildfire on tourism. I attached our reports and Datafy is just our downtown (Main Street) region and PlacerAI is the entire community. We did not pay for this, I'm assuming they pay for it via TLT funding. It wouldn't hurt to reach
 out to your regional DMO and see if they have a subscription. </div>

<p>Hello Everyone, </p>
</div>
<div>
<p> </p>
</div>
<div>
<p>I recall at a recent Mornings on Main featuring event strategy, one or some of you mentioned the use of Datafy for event metrics. I did recently have a chat with a Datafy representative and, while immensely impressive, so was the subscription
 and marketing cost. I'm curious about a few different things: </p>
</div>
<div>
<p style="margin-left:47.25pt"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Symbol"><span>·<span style="font:7.0pt "Times New Roman""> 
</span></span></span>Did you combine stakeholders for one plan/audience group (main streets in one county or collaborate with any economic development team/organization)</p>
<p style="margin-left:47.25pt"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Symbol"><span>·<span style="font:7.0pt "Times New Roman""> 
</span></span></span>How did you fund the annual subscription and advertising budget </p>
<p style="margin-left:47.25pt"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Symbol"><span>·<span style="font:7.0pt "Times New Roman""> 
</span></span></span>Did you use the retroactive data on visitation and spending to highlight the value add of your projects or events</p>
<p style="margin-left:47.25pt"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Symbol"><span>·<span style="font:7.0pt "Times New Roman""> 
</span></span></span>General net benefit vs cost</p>
<p style="margin-left:47.25pt"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Symbol"><span>·<span style="font:7.0pt "Times New Roman""> 
</span></span></span>Is there a comparable platform??</p>
<div>
<p>I'm very interested in how this can be applied to rehabilitation projects, road diets/lane reconfiguration, and other district-wide improvements. I also want to show metrics for our biggest yearly event and track general tourist traffic
 and I know I've only scratched the surface on what's possible with this platform, so any ideas are fantastic as it applies to Main Street organizations! </p>

<p>Thank you in advance for your feedback!<br>
