Abstract

Sustainable marketing strategies are powerful tools that can help to position a product in a sustainable way and much better if it is a tourist product. In recent decades, tourism has shown itself as a potential for economic growth in several countries. The objective of this study is to design sustainable marketing strategies to position the city of Portoviejo, and the Crucita Parish, Ecuador; as a tourist destination. To do this, it was necessary to identify the competitive advantage through the tourist products offered in this city, and there was a need to use the methodology: SWOT, PEST, EFI and EFE. In addition to a systematic exploratory review with a qualitative approach, a synthesized bibliographic review on the study variables was conducted, as well as the theoretical exposition of the variables and schematization of the information, the same one that was based mainly on the document: management model for the evaluation of sustainability and competitiveness in the tourist destination and Crucita beach. The results of the systemic review allow us to conclude that the before mentioned Parish is a potential tourist destination and attraction. Finally, a marketing strategy was developed for the tourist positioning in the sun and beach destination of the Crucita Parish.
