Single-mindedly strategic in everything we do, we offer a wide range of marketing services, from research to partnership marketing and everything in between, using our award-winning creative and communications expertise.

It’s important to us that our campaigns are strategically aligned with your long term goals, as well as short term targets. We look at the big picture, rather than one segment or activity in isolation, using market research and analysis to provide a solid base for our plans and careful targeting to reflect the market and your business needs. We’re quick to spot opportunities and to brief you on issues which might affect your business. And once your strategy is translated into an action plan, we regularly review results against targets. We’re your eyes, ears and brains in the UK market, not just your mouthpiece.

Partnerships

Well-connected throughout the travel industry, we are able to pull in support from third parties to strengthen a campaign and make your budget stretch further. We have extensive experience in multi-stakeholder campaigns, collaborating with public and private sector partners, including airlines, tour operators and hotels. Not only do we have excellent relationships with the travel trade, but also in-depth experience in sourcing non-industry partners such as credit card companies, FMCG products, films, books, restaurants – even shopping centres!

Digital and Social Media

The digital world is increasingly important to the travel industry with a high proportion of travel now researched and booked online. Consumers and industry personnel form opinions on destinations and hotels from sites such as Trip Advisor, Twitter, Instagram and Facebook – as well as influential travel blogs. Mobile technology presents both challenges and opportunities – and video is now prominent as a decision-making medium. Hume Whitehead has experience in devising and implementing digital campaigns and managing your presence on social networking sites.

Their knowledge of the industry is immense and they are always striving to get the results for us – whether that is in terms of coverage or through their marketing support.
