Switzerland Tourism finds the key to resonating travel content

How the tourism brand develops an effective social media strategy, in four steps

Switzerland Tourism is dedicated to inspiring their more than 3.5 million fans and followers by showcasing the unique nature of one of the most spectacular destinations on the earth.

The tourism industry is one of the most competitive and well-presented sectors all across social media, giving excellent audience reach opportunities but, at the same time challenging media teams to work to the very best of their abilities.

"Social media is playing an important role in tourism marketing, and it has a direct impact on travel-related decisions before and during a stay," said Dominic Stöcklin the Head of Social Media.

Gaining the spotlight in the oversaturated media landscape is a major challenge for any travel-related brand or business. Switzerland Tourism attributes their success to a strong regional content strategy, backed by smooth team collaboration and transparency internally. After having tried several social media marketing platforms, they selected the settled for Emplifi Social Marketing Cloud as their one-stop solution for all their activities.

"Emplifi increased our efficiency and effectiveness through all social media-related activities," said Dominic Stöcklin, Social Media Leader at Switzerland Tourism. "The all-in-one solution gives us the possibility to publish content, interact with our communities, get insights, and report our activities."
