Syftet med den här studien har varit att analysera informationsbehovet hos vemdalsområdets besökare för att se hur Destination Vemdalen AB i framtiden skall bedriva en funktionell gästinformation som möter konsumenternas behov. Här vill vi bidra med ett ramverk för en hållbar verksamhet i framtiden. Undersökningen är baserad på en enkätundersökning bland Destination Vemdalens besökare, intervjuer med personer på strategiska poster inom turismnäringen samt informella intervjuer med aktörer i position med mycket gästkontakt där allmän service efterfrågas. Studien har visat att turistbyråns roll är föråldrad och att en teknisk revolution inom gästinformationens utveckling måste till för att möta konsumenternas behov. Vidare visar undersökningen att besökarna litar mer på fysiska personer än digitala källor, dock använder sig många av den nya tekniken av praktiska skäl då den är mer tillgänglig.
