The Challenge

Sea Island, an exceptional destination fueled by heartfelt hospitality since 1928 and the only resort in the world to achieve four Forbes Five Stars 14 years in a row, invested in enhancements to one of it's properties, The Lodge at Sea Island. These enhancements included room renovations, six new guest cottages, an oceanfront pool, the introduction to The Driftwood Course (an 18-hole putting course), and a new 17,000-square-foot Golf Performance Center. The goal was to increase bookings and revenue of both new and past guests following its completion.

The Process

As the marketing manager on the account, I used the following strategies to meet the client's goals:



  1. Key audiences of past and new customers: utilizing first-party data CRM lists of past Lodge guests, lookalike audiences, and in-market/ affinity audiences of travel enthusiasts with a top 20% household income.
  2. Full funnel digital strategy: reaching our key audiences across search, social, native & video.
  3. Messaging call-to-action tailored to the audience: focusing on "Return to The Lodge at Sea Island" for past guests and "Book Your Stay at The Lodge at Sea Island" to new guests.

The Solution

The campaign drove an +85% increase in revenue and +81% increase in call to book rate, and ROAS remained flat despite scaled efforts on an +84% increase in spend year over year.

BodyFX

I started working with BodyFX (home workout programs) as they were heading into a historically slower period for the brand (Q4). They had never run "holiday" sales or messaging, instead opting to reduce spend Oct-(mid)Dec before their big Q1 push. I pitched the client on a pre-holiday strategy (promotion & messaging) for us to start testing in early November, which he approved. The campaigns were a success (within target CPA range) and we were not only able to scale the initial tests, but iterate on the messaging throughout Nov & Dec to scale consistently over the holiday period, resulting in a 129% increase in spend YoY.
