作者:

Highlights:

• We profile online and mobile technologies used by ski resorts on two segments.

• Segments include millennials and non-millennials (greater than 35).

• Decision tree models show that ski resorts use specific strategies for these segments.

• Findings reveal the impact that technologies and services have on resort sales.

• It is a novel use of decision trees to profile promotional and advertising strategies.
