Purpose of the Hello! Plymouth Platforms

The Hello! Plymouth website and social media accounts aim to inform visitors and residents about places to eat, stay and visit, and things to do in Plymouth. Content is curated to help users plan their visit and navigate the area with ease.

Eligibility for Listings and Promotion 

Tourism-related businesses located within the City of Plymouth, Minnesota, are eligible for free promotion through the Plymouth Destination Marketing Organization’s website, social media and other promotional materials. 

Businesses located outside the city may be included if Hello! Plymouth determines that visitors would reasonably consider them part of the greater Plymouth area or would attract a regional audience.  

Eligible businesses may receive the following:

• Website business listing, which may contain:
  • Business name
  • Physical address
  • Phone number
  • Website URL
  • Business description or list of amenities
  • Images

• Opportunities to submit events to the Hello! Plymouth website calendar
• Distribution of information about special offers or promotions via website, print or social media.

Promotion may vary based on campaign focus as well as Hello! Plymouth staff availability. Businesses are responsible for providing updated information, including new offers or changes to business details.

Website Calendar Event Listings Policy

Events submitted for inclusion on the Hello! Plymouth website calendar must adhere to these advertising and promotion and guidelines. Eligibility for inclusion on the Hello! Plymouth calendar is determined based on these guidelines and Hello! Plymouth discretion. Any submission may be edited or declined if it is incomplete, inaccurate, not tourism-related or deemed inappropriate.

Editorial Discretion

Hello! Plymouth retains final editorial control over all content published on its platforms, as well as the frequency and timing of publication. Any submission may be edited or declined if it is incomplete, inaccurate, not tourism-related or deemed inappropriate.
