Think! has been steadily growing this year, but today is a big milestone for us: We have expanded to the United States.

We are truly excited to welcome David Serino to Think! as a strategist and educator. Dave is based in our U.S. office in Michigan. He brings a significant depth of experience in digital marketing for tourism that includes important programs which have been serving the U.S. travel industry for several years.

David has worked more than 15 years at the intersection of technology and marketing. He worked in sales and marketing positions within the travel industry before he founded Gammet Interactive in 2000 to serve the travel and tourism industry in its use of digital marketing.

To help the tourism industry understand and improve its use of social media, Dave developed a tourism-focused social media ranking system called How Social is Your DMO? in 2009. Then last year, he brought a valuable educational resource to the industry when he launched the Social Media in the Tourism Industry Symposium (#SoMeT), attracting attendees from destination marketing organizations, hotels, resorts, attractions and other tourism-related businesses.

Dave is a well known speaker at travel industry conferences, having presented at more than 85 events. You will continue to see him on the road, but now as a part of Think!

Dave’s joining our team also marks the integration of Gammet Interactive with Think! and the continued expansion of our full suite of digital marketing services. Gammet Interactive’s clients will continue to get leading strategic consultation and support from an even bigger team of experts at Think! Gammet Interactive’s programs, like How Social is Your DMO? and Social Media in the Tourism Industry Symposium, will also continue.

Welcome, Dave!
