Strategic Planning
We take a strategy-first approach to tourism marketing, making sure we have a solid understanding of the opportunities at hand. This allows us to spend time with you as a thinking partner and create a long-lasting marketing foundation. Our 7-step strategic process acts as our guiding light to increase visitors by providing a clear direction for all marketing messaging and campaigns.
Travel PR
Using a mix of proactive and reactive media relations, we can focus efforts locally, regionally and on a national level. Outreach works in tandem with other tactics and initiatives, creating an integrated campaign. Efforts often include press release distribution, proactive story pitching, reactive story response, influencer marketing and media kit and/or press room development. We approach media relations from a relationship-building perspective and also incorporate media events, deskside visits and media shows into our efforts.
Digital Advertising
Reach potential travelers where they are doing their research: online. From the affordable and effective Meta ads network (Facebook, Instagram, etc.) to the power of Google and YouTube advertising, we create effective campaigns that drive results and drive toward your goals.
So many platforms and mediums are available to choose from in the digital advertising sphere. Work with us to understand the most effective use of your dollars, and get creative with placements for OTT, streaming, video, direct mail, social media and more.
Travel Trade
Travel Trade markets must have a structure to build upon and be sustainable. One-off or siloed tactics without coordinated engagement and follow up do not translate to year over year growth and advancement. We build a coordinated commitment to the right target markets by developing a Travel Trade plan.
Tactics in a travel trade plan typically include relationship building with database development and maintenance, digital and content marketing, itinerary development, collateral and other resources, association memberships, attending tradeshows and FAM tours.
Brand Positioning & Development
We believe a brand is strongest when created from a holistic view of the destination or organization. By immersing ourselves in the story through research, stakeholder input and first-hand experiences, we develop brand positioning for your full visual and strategic brand.
Digital Marketing
Content planning is the cornerstone of our approach to digital marketing. Content calendars map out the themes, stories and positions for email newsletters, social media content, webinars, blogs, itinerary development to creative tactics like quizzes, virtual events, gamification apps and contests.
Innovation is one of our core values – as the digital world evolves and grows, we are following in step with it. From the latest in website trends, to upcoming social media networks and AI tools, we are prepared to help you put digital marketing to use in the travel, tourism and hospitality industry.
Content Development
We love creating engaging and enticing content for destinations and organizations in the travel, tourism and hospitality industry. Our team of strong writers understand how to craft messaging that follows brand voice while also speaking to the target audience. From the first content calendar to the final draft.
