Objectives
Despite having 400+ properties across the globe, Melia Hotels International had little to no awareness among North Americans and little-to-no direct bookings at melia.com. We needed to drive direct online bookings and improve return on ad spend.
Insights

Objectives
Most American vacation travel is centered on Caribbean and Mexico. It's routine for travelers to research and book their vacations through online travel agencies. But, OTAs charge a 20-25% fee to operators thus reducing their revenue.

Strategy
Dig deeper into our audience tools to better define best, qualified prospects by demographics, geography, behavior, and attitude. Improve targeting and messaging to 1-to-1 as much as possible. Migrate prospects to the melia.com booking engine over an OTA.
Approach

Supplement always-on targeted online ad campaigns with the industry's first-ever deep integration with eBay. Focus annual "La Bomba" sales promotion on core feeder markets and implement countdown mechanism to drive urgency.
