Visibility sequenced around booking intent.

Launch, social and influence

Launch communications were rebuilt around one social calendar, creator-seeding plan, PR sequence, landing-page response path, and reporting view. The work moved awareness activity closer to commercially important offer windows and made enquiry contribution easier to evaluate.

The objective

Increase event and staycation enquiries by coordinating social media, creator activity, PR timing, and conversion-ready landing experiences under one launch playbook.

The operating shift

The condition
changed.

Outcomes are more credible when the operating changes behind them remain visible.

Before
  • Social publishing was not sequenced against offers or launch milestones.
  • Creator partnerships were ad hoc, with limited briefing rigour and unclear outputs.
  • Press and creator activity were not connected to enquiry or landing performance.
  • Landing pages lacked the proof and next-step structure required by launch traffic.
After
  • Social, PR, and creator activity aligned to commercially important booking moments.
  • Creator posts were briefed and timed against enquiry goals rather than generic visibility.
  • Landing-page refinements improved traffic-to-enquiry conversion during launch periods.
  • Qualified event enquiries grew 3.6x while visibility became easier to attribute and govern.
Business impact

What became possible.

  1. 01

    The business gained a reusable launch playbook spanning content, creators, PR, and conversion.

  2. 02

    Management could distinguish activity assisting qualified demand from activity generating reach alone.

  3. 03

    Social and PR shifted from isolated tactics to a governed communications system.

  4. 04

    The team retained a stronger creator and PR operating base for later seasonal campaigns.
