I specially like 13, creating an editorial calender to start promoting events in time. I'd like to add tweeting links to videos, blog posts and pics from travelers who just came back from your location. "Testimonials" (or twestimonials is yo're retweeting the travelers) always work well. You can monitor those in blogsearch engines or Google alerts. Great post, Todd.
