The Challenge
Facing the post-pandemic challenge of repositioning itself as a top-tier luxury lifestyle destination in the city, The Westin Brisbane sought to establish social proof that would expand its brand affinity and solidify its status. With a specific focus on elevating its kid-friendly staycation experiences, We Are Brooklyn partnered with The Westin Brisbane to create a robust influencer engagement program aimed at promoting their Ultimate Slumber Party family package during the holiday season.
The Approach
Drawing on in-depth research and strategic outreach, We Are Brooklyn harnessed the power of key opinion leader engagement, and devised a collaboration program to promote The Westin Brisbane to its target audience of lifestyle travellers. Our strategy aimed to position The Westin Brisbane as a premium lifestyle destination by enlisting local influencers within this niche. Each influencer partnership was carefully vetted and tailored to align with their individual preferences and lifestyles. By showcasing diverse ways to experience the grandeur of The Westin Brisbane across various online platforms, we invited audiences to virtually explore the hotel’s rooms, spa, pool, bar and more. Through engaging content creation, active audience engagement, and calls to action to follow The Westin Brisbane, we bolstered the hotel’s awareness and reputation as a leading luxury staycation choice in the city.
