WAHI approached Emblm to develop a fully integrated marketing and advertising strategy. From branded collateral items such as hotel stationery to their digital and social media marketing, we have been working with WAHI to evolve all touchpoints of their brand.
And at the heart of this strategy lies social media.
With 83% of travellers reporting that they share content about their stay on social media and 52% reporting that their travel plans are inspired by their friend’s photos (according to Adweek), the influence that social media has had on the tourism sector is indisputable.
After conducting in-depth research to identify WAHI’s target audience and assessing their previous marketing initiatives, Emblm set out to showcase everything that WAHI and the Whitsundays has to offer.
By curating a feed of beautiful imagery, developing a strong brand voice and staying up to date with current social trends, we have grown the WAHI Instagram by 1018% and encouraged a new demographic to #StayWAHI.
