South Africa’s top tourism company Tourvest Destination Management has promoted Struan Langlands as the new Marketing and Communications Manager.
According to a report by tourism update.co.za, Langlands joined Tourvest Destination Management in 2017 as the Social Media Content Producer.
He has more than six years’ experience in the digital marketing environment. ‘Struan Lanlands who professes addiction to social media was quoted from his LinkedIn profile as saying:”The path of Digital Marketing is not a career path that I chose, rather it chose me, and I’ve enjoyed every moment of the journey. Because the digital market is constantly growing and changing, I believe that the ability to adapt is extremely important. Being in the growth hacking industry I have learnt the importance of analyzing data to change and improve marketing strategies to increase growth, retention and leads.”
“I love being active on Social Media, and experimenting with new tools and gadgets. I have great knowledge of how social platforms work and how to utilize them to gain the attention of an ever growing market. For me, the best part of digital marketing is the fact that you never stop learning, if you don’t learn something new then you’re technically moving backwards.
“As an individual I easily adapt to situations and work well with others. I am a team player and enjoy making people laugh. Through my participation in various sports clubs (Rugby, Squash, Golf and Kickboxing) and work experience, I have gained valuable management and team player skills. I am focused and eager to increase my knowledge base.
“Working abroad has taught me new skills and I learnt a lot about myself, as I am well motivated, enduring and reliable. I am a social Media addict, a full blooded petrol head and the biggest sports fan around.”Langlands added.
