Launch and Market
Drive trial and engagement by utilizing paid, owned, and earned media channels
Paid
Display, Search, Native, Distributed Content, Video, Traditional Media
Owned
Websites, Content, Blogs, Social Media Platforms, Email, Guest Receipts, On-Property Promotions
Earned
PR Pick-ups, Word of Mouth, Referral Programs, Re-tweets, Likes, Reviews
Think small, not big
Create. Test. Learn.
Think Content First
Numerous small ideas and
executions, performed over
time, tend to add up to a much
larger result than one big ad
campaign.
Each element of a launch can
and should be measured. We
evaluate this data in real-time to
double down on what’s working
and eliminate what’s not.
Connecting with today’s
consumers requires
valuable, entertaining, and
moving content, distributed
effectively.

Summary and key insights
Mobile is already bigger than print and radio and will surpass PC Web in
media time spent by 2015 but is currently far behind in media spend.
Is mobile defined in your budget in proportion to customer demand?
Apps vs web – apps are not for everyone but provide one of the best
channels for ongoing engagements and to drive transactions
A great solution needs relevant content and a clear key use case
Key success factor for all solutions is utility and/or entertainment factor
Enable user discovery - leverage other channels to promote your mobile
solution
Set SMART targets, monitor them rigorously and improve
