TOMIS is the Tour and Activity Industry's only one-stop shop for all things digital marketing.

Idaho has taken its first step in an aggressive campaign to attract gun manufacturers and other outdoor recreation industries.

Known as the Recreational Technology Campaign, Idaho Department of Commerce is partnering with the state’s regional economic development groups to market Idaho as the best state for gun manufacturers to do business.

State officials say the campaign is targeting gun manufacturers in states that are growing increasingly hostile toward firearms and ammunition manufacturers – at least 12 states have either passed, or are discussing legislation that would make it more difficult for gun manufacturers to operate.
