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, needed to maintain performance in 2020 as the unexpected COVID-19 pandemic hit and the travel industry slowed to a halt.

The Process

Given the shifting market, our paid media goals and strategy needed to shift.

Goal 1: Drive future bookings (since people were not yet ready to travel)

  • Shift media dollars from lower funnel to upper funnel, creating awareness to new audiences and staying top of mind to existing
  • Adjust messaging to focus on booking in advance

Goal 2: Capitalize on new audiences

  • Shift geo-targeting to drive radius markets vs fly markets
  • Identify new "rising" audiences over-indexing on bookings such as international travelers that may now be looking for domestic travel, etc.

The Solution

Implementing these strategies and remaining nimble in an ever-changing market resulted in a +7% increase in ROAS in 2020 for this luxury resort.

CoRevival

The client created a comfy face mask and wanted to quickly bring it to the mass market via Amazon. Even though they were quite familiar with how Amazon works, they wanted to be sure to give their product the BEST possible chance at success – especially in such high competition and a high volume market! So they decided that investing in a team of Amazon marketing Pro’s was the way to go. (great choice;)

Onto

Onto is establishing a new category in the 'electric car buying' space that is 'car subscriptions'. Rather than owning a car (and all associated costs), Onto offers a monthly flexible contract where all costs are included (including your charging). The challenge is that this breaks the normal assumptions of a driver and is a new way of having a car.


Our acquisition channels and ads need to explain this complex proposition into simple and easy to understand message as well as overcome the initial 'sticker shock'. Since we're all-inclusive, the monthly price is naturally higher than what consumers normally see on leasing deals.


As Head of Growth, I'm at the forefront of driving the acquisition strategy.
