SUMMARY
Despite Tennessee having some of the most beautiful fall foliage in the country, it had to overcome the perception that there was nothing new to see, and break through competitors’ similar colorful offerings. We re-created the sense of wonder by creating the Colorblind Viewer, which allowed those with colorblindness to see the fall colors for the first time. With a smaller budget than our competitors, we leveraged shareable placements and feel-good targeting, and to deliver a powerful new perspective through video content, increasing hotel demand and revenue.
