The BOLD Dashboard is a platform that was established for local partners to access resources, respond to RFPs, and update business listings with Tourism Kamloops.

This article will outline how to access the dashboard, update your business listing, and how to contribute to forums. We encourage you to take advantage of the BOLD Dashboard’s resources and check in for updates every week.

Your Account

This platform is available for management such as business owners, sales managers, and front-of-house managers as there is confidential information posted such as meetings bids and invoices.

Most businesses have one login email for the business owner or general manager. If you would like a secondary login, please connect with Tara Look (contact details below).

Click here to access the BOLD Dashboard and enter your login email and password. If you forget your password, hit ‘forget password’. You will be sent a new password from Simpleview. Please check your junk if it does not go straight to your inbox.

 

The BOLD Dashboard

When you login, you will see four, green pillars on the left side of the screen.

Home Page – Where you find Tourism Kamloops’ press releases, annual reports, monthly newsletters, and additional corporate communications.

Profile – Where you view your business’ Benefits Summary. You can also add employees their contact information to streamline future communications. 

Collateral – Where you update your business listing and order printed materials

Opportunities – Where you respond to RFPs and Service Requests. Please read Bold Dashboard 2 for support on this category.

Contribute to the Post Board

On the right side of the dashboard lives the Post Board. We have pre-populated the Post Board with common questions. We encourage you to post your questions here such as:

  • Hiring procedures – Do you hire seasonally? What platforms do you post jobs on – LinkedIn, Indeed, go2HR?
  • Co-Op Students – Have you hired co-op students from TRU before? What wage subsidies did you apply for?
  • Hours of Operation – Does anyone else find it profitable to open on Sundays in July & August?

Please contribute to any applicable posts. Your experience in hotel management may assist a winery with summer hiring, and vice versa.
