Adam wraps up his trip to Arkansas in this week’s episode of the Destination Marketing Podcast. He talks to Kalene Griffith, president, and CEO of Visit Bentonville, about what it’s like to be the hometown of Walmart. They also discuss how to get your community to buy into your destination organization, and why it’s important to say yes and make things happen for your stakeholders.

"We’re gonna say yes to what you need. There might be a 'yes, but' or a 'yes, and' or you may have to compromise a little bit on your vision because we can’t cater to everything. But in my view, whatever you come to us about, if we have the amenities and facilities, we’re gonna say yes to you. That is our goal." - Kalene Griffith
