Nira Alpina

Partnership

Nira Alpina partnered with Journey to deliver a long-term digital marketing strategy focused on driving direct bookings across a complex mix of international markets, while adapting to strong seasonal demand patterns.

Challenge

Two key challenges for this property include its location mix and seasonality. Relying on revenue from the domestic, short-haul, and long-haul markets means constant strategy changes. Alongside this, having two clear seasons, the winter ski season and summer holidays, means varied targeting and exact clear messaging is essential.

Approach

We implemented a multi-layered digital strategy combining international targeting, multi-language campaigns, detailed audience segmentation, and a phased seasonal approach to ensure consistent performance across markets and throughout the year.

Scaling International Reach

Multi-language Campaigns & Global Targeting

We analysed past data and market trends to launch a global prospecting, retargeting and A/B test strategy. We also identified the four key languages for our highest revenue-generating markets โ€“ English, German, French, and Italian โ€“ and launched Brand and Discovery campaigns across both platforms in each language.

Adapting to Seasonality & Audience Behaviour

Persona-led Targeting & Audience Behaviour

As demand grew, we shifted focus to capturing in-market users and converting them through the booking engine. Ongoing optimisation combined intent-led targeting with sustained brand activity, resulting in strong commercial performance.

Don’t take our word for it

“We’ve been working with Journey for a long time, and the team’s knowledge and strategic approach have been invaluable. They understand our seasonal challenges and international markets, and their recommendations have helped us drive significant growth in direct bookings year on year.”
