THE CHALLENGE
The biggest. The largest. The greatest. We're not short of superlatives when it comes to describing the new Bangkok Marriott Marquis Queen's Park. As one of the upcoming leading travel hub in SE Asia, driven by business technology and hospitality "savoir-faire", the hotel was looking for a social media presence that could reflect such a meticulous mindset and launch one of the biggest new opening this year, on Bangkok's constant-evolving hospitality scene.
THE IDEA
So what's next ? Earning visibility on-the-spot for a grand opening is one thing, making it live throughout the years is another. Let's put aside the promos and discounts, we wanted to craft a valuable story behind the venue, earn quality awareness for what the brand stands for, creating powerful content to redesign the codes of a new luxury-trendy experience while laying down the foundations of a sustainable engagement. The rest was history.
OUR RESPONSE
Parallel to on-ground activations, we set up a 10-day countdown to the official grand opening with weekly branded teaser posts highlighting the values and the new lifestyle positioning of Bangkok Marriott Marquis Queen's Park
Leading up to the grand opening, the countdown posts built a steadily growing engagement on the page, increasing by 1,200 organic fans within less than 2 weeks. Upon which we developed, remastered and released our social media video
Reaching out to a local crowd and with the ambition to maximize direct inquiries and increase foot traffic, we launched 4 LINE accounts (4 restaurants) and started getting creative to recruit captive followers!
