Campaign Based On Real-Time Snow Updates Drove 15:1 ROI For Vail Resort

The result: the highest ROI from an ad campaign in Beaver Creek’s history.

The resort partnered with advertising technology company Spongecell to create the campaign. The creative in ads were automatically updated depending on the 24-hour, 48-hour and 7-day snowfalls. See the inset image for an example of one of the ads.

The campaign drove a purchase conversion rate of 24% for the resort. The return on investment was 15 to 1, which outperformed Vail’s historical ROI average by 50%.
