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.

More Case Study

Imperial Tea

Imperial Tea is a premium tea company started almost 30 years ago, and family run. As a family run business, Imperial Tea has acquired a very loyal community of fans and customers. True tea connoisseurs shop at Imperial Tea, in part for the premium quality they offer, but also to continue connecting with the founders that lead tea tasting sessions and education. The entire Imperial Tea experience is unique. While the majority of their sales have been generated by their tea house in San Francisco, they have been trying to expand their online stores sales.


When Imperial Tea reached out to us, they were looking for a team of marketers that truly understand the boutique nature of their business. Unlike mainstream tea companies, Imperial Tea’s social media content had to lead with education in order to continue offering the same quality of service to their existing audience, while growing their community of premium tea lovers.

They wanted to see a decrease in their CPA, but also an increase in conversions to grow their already expanding business. They knew that working with the right PPC agency would help them achieve those goals.
