There are four
distinct travel brands under the Globus umbrella, and 90octane's strategy targeted each of the brands' audiences in conjunction with offline efforts. In order to increase search engine visibility
and drive conversions, 90octane employed contextual ads, ppc, social media and online video. The ppc campaigns used four types of creative, aiming for searchers on the hunt for the best prices
and specific itineraries; contextual ads appealed directly to the users of each site. 90octane also helped Globus develop StorySuitcase, a branded blog. "Each marketing dollar dedicated has
shown tremendous return, with customers converting at an unprecedented rate," says Jeff Russell, e-marketing manager, Globus family of brands. "Program results far exceeded our
expectations."
