Abstract
Cusco es considerado actualmente un destino turístico monotemático debido a
que Machu Picchu, dada su alta promoción y reconocimientos mundiales, se encuentra
posicionado como el principal motivo de viaje hacia el Perú, lo que genera la necesidad
de diversificar la oferta turística. En comparación con países similares (Argentina,
Brasil y Colombia), se identifica una oportunidad para incrementar el gasto promedio a
través del aumento en seis días de estadía. En consecuencia, el presente plan de
marketing tiene como objetivo generar divisas adicionales por turismo incluyendo los
destinos de naturaleza como complemento a los paquetes actuales de Cusco, logrando
así que el turista extranjero permanezca más tiempo en la región.
Es así que, teniendo en cuenta las variables de accesibilidad y atractividad, se
eligen cinco rutas de naturaleza agrupadas en el concepto Natural Cusco (con el tagline
“Hay más energía esperando por ti”) cuya propuesta de valor está basada en los
atributos de misticismo, energía y bienestar. Esto fue corroborado a través de
investigación de mercado con los segmentos objetivo, alcanzando una aceptación
promedio de 85% del concepto y 62% para las rutas seleccionadas.
Asimismo, dado que el concepto es nuevo en el mercado y debido a que
involucran a diferentes grupos de interés, será importante la implementación de la
mezcla de marketing en fases, así como la participación de las comunidades aledañas a
las rutas para integrarlas en los beneficios de esta actividad turística.
Por último, a nivel financiero el proyecto es viable pues genera un VAN de US$
313 millones a nivel país, y un VAN de US$ 4 millones a nivel de la región Cusco, para
el período de 2017-2022. Esto beneficiaría a más de 100 mil personas gracias a la
generación de empleo, y al destinarse un ingreso constante para diversos proyectos de
desarrollo social
Cusco is currently considered as a monothematic destination because of Machu Picchu and, due to the worldwide recognition and publicity, Cusco is ranked as the main motive for visiting Peru, which generates the need to diversify the tourism offer. In comparison to similar countries (Argentina, Brazil and Colombia), there is an opportunity to elevate the average expenditure of visitors by increasing their stay in Cusco to six days. In consequence, this marketing plan has as a main goal to generate additional income in tourism by including natural destinations as a complement to the current tourism packages offer, thus attracting foreign tourists to stay longer in the region. After careful consideration, keeping in mind variables of accessibility and attractiveness, five nature itineraries have been carefully prepared and elected under the concept Natural Cusco (using the tagline “there is more energy waiting for you”), the value proposition is based on the attributes of mysticism, energy and wellbeing. This has been confirmed with market research in the target segments reaching an approval rate of 85% in concept, and 62% in elected itineraries. Considering that it is a new concept in the market and that it involves different target groups, it is important that the implementation of the marketing mix is done in phases and it is also critical to involve the surrounding communities so they can benefit from these touristic activities. Finally, at a financial level this project is viable by generating a NPV of US$ 313 millions, a IRR of 5,142% and a ROI of 42 for the 2017-2022 period, potentially benefiting over a hundred thousand people thanks to the creation of new jobs and generating constant income for social projects
