360° marketing for hotels and destinations

The MTS 360° Marketing Mix

Good products need visibility. And visibility isn’t achieved through a single channel, but through the targeted combination of various measures.

MTS Austria combines business and media partnerships, social media, web marketing, trade fairs and events, as well as print and selected influencer partnerships, to create a holistic marketing mix for hotels, destinations and tourism brands.

The aim: greater visibility for your brand, wider reach and more qualified enquiries from the right target audience.

How the MTS marketing mix works

Our 360° marketing mix combines different channels and formats to create a bespoke marketing strategy. We work with you to analyse which measures are most appropriate, based on your offering, your target audience and your marketing objectives.

 
Our six specialised tourism brands, our long-standing networks and our marketing channels all work in tandem. High-quality, relevant content is targeted via websites, newsletters, social media and selected print media. Partnerships create additional reach and visibility, whilst trade fairs and events bring your brand into direct, personal contact with your target audience.

In this way, individual initiatives come together to form a coordinated marketing mix that reaches your target audience across various channels.

This is how the MTS 360° marketing mix is created

The strength of our marketing mix lies in the interplay of four key elements: we combine our six specialist tourism brands, long-standing partnerships and strong networks, as well as a variety of marketing channels, to create a tailor-made strategy. And a measurable marketing system.

  1. Business and media partnerships ensure visibility and greater reach.
  2. Social media and web marketing generate digital engagement and direct interested parties straight to our offerings.
  3. Trade fairs and events foster personal connections and direct dialogue with the target audience.
  4. Print extends communication beyond digital channels and firmly establishes brands in the long term.

In this way, hotels and destinations reach their target audiences through multiple relevant touchpoints – digital, print and in person.

The result: visibility. Reach. Relevance. Demand.

Marketing FAQs

How can we work out which marketing channels are really the best fit for our hotel or destination?

The most suitable marketing channels depend on your tourism offering, your target audience and your marketing objectives. MTS Austria provides six building blocks for this purpose: business partnerships, media partnerships, social media, web marketing, trade fairs and events, and print. We work with you to assess which measures complement each other effectively, rather than utilising each channel in isolation from actual needs.

How can we attract more attention to our tourism offering by partnering with well-known brands?

MTS Austria connects tourism partners with companies whose products and target audiences match the relevant holiday theme. The network includes, amongst others, Schwalbe, Schöffel, Louis and 1000 PS. Joint campaigns, competitions, product placements or trade fair appearances can generate additional attention and raise the profile of hotels or destinations even beyond their own marketing channels.

Can we use the same tourism content for our website, social media, newsletters and media partnerships?

Yes. Well-produced tourism content can be distributed across several suitable channels. To this end, MTS Austria combines content, web marketing, social media, newsletters and media partnerships within a coordinated marketing mix. A special cycle tour or a regional experience, for example, can reach different guests whilst they are planning their holidays in the form of a magazine feature, social media content and a newsletter topic.

What role do print materials and trade fair appearances still play, given that we are already heavily involved in digital marketing?

Print materials and trade fairs complement digital marketing initiatives by facilitating face-to-face interactions and creating additional touchpoints with the target audience. MTS Austria, for example, combines catalogues, travel guides and image magazines with trade fair appearances, sporting events and digital campaigns. This enables hotels and destinations to showcase their offerings both online and in face-to-face conversations, as well as through high-quality printed content.

How can we work out which marketing initiatives are effective for our hotel or destination?

MTS Austria combines content campaigns, newsletters and digital advertising formats with reporting and evaluation in its web marketing. This makes it possible to track the results of individual initiatives and use them to inform further marketing decisions. Which key performance indicators are most useful depends on the specific objective, such as increased visibility, website visits or qualified enquiries for your tourism offering.
