Fall Media Opps: Arkansas Tourism retains longtime AOR, adds new digital shop
Miles Partnership for digital work previously handled by Aristotle, Inc.
Per Jay Salyers, CJRW's special projects SVP: "One focus will be personalized content. Of course we'll have content for the outdoor traveler, but we'll also serve up imagery and content specific to people who want a more urban vacation. Whatever we determine people are interested in, we'll have material specifically for them." Therefore, sellers should be reaching out for digital dollars here, as spend is this channel far outpaces TV spend.
Note that, according to the 2016 Annual Report, neighboring states Texas, Missouri, Oklahoma, Tennessee and Louisiana are the primary out-of-state market for visitors. Sellers in these states, then, should be looking for dollars - particularly those in Dallas/Ft. Worth, Springfield, Mo.; Shreveport, La.; Memphis, Chicago and Tulsa. For 2015, Arkansas Tourism worked with Acxiom on an email marketing campaign that targeted motorcycle enthusiasts, which included retargeting efforts and new prospect targeting.
Its 2015 Fall/Winter campaign included TV, print, radio, online and outdoor buys in a number of markets, mostly in major Arkansas cities and Dallas (where digital outdoor ran). Sellers should also keep in mind that Arkansas Tourism runs a large amount of Hispanic-focused marketing. See chart for 2015 broadcast and cable TV markets, and begin looking for fall/winter dollars now.
