Simply placing a listing on a few major websites and waiting for the phone to ring is not a sufficient way to market your yacht. Another way Denison captures attention online is through aggressive marketing tactics on a wide variety of MLS services and websites. It’s never been more important to strategically advertise charter listings on the Internet. 8 Boat shows offer an excellent opportunity to promote listings that are ready to sell quickly. True international shows, such as Fort Lauderdale, draw thousands of serious buyers from all over the world. Denison actively participates and displays inventory in dozens of significant boat shows every year. Since 2005, Denison Yacht Sales has exhibited at over 70 local, national, and international boat shows, including special events and sponsored fundraising galas. • Yatco • YachtWorld.com 9
