Abstract
This chapter is part of a broader research project on popular culture tourism that is designed to explore new destination branding strategies that utilize cultural resources as a key strategy. This study promotes the role of urban cultural attractions as an additional significant resource category for destination development. Through the arrival of new and diversified cultural experiences, destinations such as Australia can improve their existing tourism portfolios. The study is concerned with qualitative aspects of the cultural economy, namely the subjective experiences and expectations of past, existing, and potential tourists. It offers recommendations and comments on the use of alternative cultural attractions in national tourism campaigns.

Abstract
In this chapter, the analysis-action nexus will be addressed by reviewing studies from across the chapters. The broad themes covered have included governance and sustainability, consumer benefits and experiences, and networking among entrepreneurs and associated opportunities. It is argued that addition to tourism intelligence often lies in improving communication, building trusted connections, and affirming local networks. A focus on the need for trust, the use of tools for insights, the value of identifying new trends, and understanding target markets, together with the usefulness of training and an appreciation of time, help smooth the journey along the long and winding road from analysis to action.
