- Spain Tourism-Global Advertising Strategies
New York based Global Advertising Strategies has been selected by the Tourist Office of Spain to carry out digital and social media initiatives in the United States. With Global Advertising Strategies' help, the Tourist Office will focus on solidifying Spain’s’ position as one of the leading destination for the upscale traveler interested in the country’s unique blend of modern luxury and rich historical legacy.
The campaign, consisting of targeted outreach to high-end trade and consumer travel online publications, emphasizes Spain’s premier offerings for the savvy U.S. traveler to Europe as well as highlights its appeal for those interested in art, gastronomy and history. Global will extend that messaging into social media channels to foster conversations within target audience groups and focus on partnerships with top travel bloggers to promote Spain’s under-discovered offerings.
