Affluent international travelers:

Company Website mock-up
Screen Shot 2025-05-25 at 20.29.37.png

Using a company website in social media marketing is essential because it serves as the central hub where you control the content, track detailed analytics, and drive conversions such as bookings or sales. Unlike social platforms, your website offers long-term visibility through SEO, builds brand trust and credibility, and allows for integrated marketing tools like email sign-ups and retargeting (Obednikovska et al., 2019). While social media attracts attention, the website is where you turn that interest into measurable results, making it a critical component of any effective digital marketing strategy.

Why choose Instagram mock-up ?


A report highlights that Instagram influencer marketing can significantly boost a hotel’s brand awareness, website traffic, and direct bookings — especially effective in attracting Millennial and Gen Z travelers (Sailtech, 2022).

For luxury hotel marketing, it serves as a powerful video content that communicates the emotional desire of the experience – that is a key factor for reaching affluent yet time-poor travelers. It’s a way for potential guests to sense the atmosphere — quiet luxury, check-in ease, curated comfort — rather than just read about it. Video also raises engagement and shareability even further. And, not only does it tell viewers the special things about the hotel in less than 60 seconds, it does so in an efficient manner that appeals to those who is the hotel and means they can speak about it fluently. The presence of video on landing pages has been known to double conversion rates, as it engenders trust and demonstrates discernment

Group Task
Allocation

Screen Shot 2025-05-25 at 22.14.01.png
For this assignment, we divided the work using the SOSTAC Framework. However, since each part of the framework needs to connect and align with the others, strong communication and mutual understanding of each member’s SWOT analysis, strategy, and tactics were essential. Tracking each other’s progress and checking in to ensure that everyone clearly understood their tasks played a key role in completing the assignment successfully.

Thyme

One of the main challenges I experienced was time management, as balancing this project with other commitments made it difficult to meet deadlines consistently. However, as a group, we communicated effectively through shared documents and chat, which helped us stay aligned. When problems came up, we discussed them openly and reassigned tasks when necessary. Overall, our collaboration was strong, and we were able to complete the project with shared effort and problem-solving.

Khanh

Our group project was a team effort and nothing short of productive! Everyone had their positive input and things got allocated by what you were good at. Communication was great and we met deadlines thoroughly. They had some differences, of course — but they found an open-minded consensus, and a united product. In general it helped our project management and teamwork.

Jane Phan

Collaborating with our group on this assessment was highly productive. While I focused on creating an intuitive layout and visually engaging design, they provided excellent content that made our site informative. The difficult thing is I have to take long time for design the structure for the website and some tools are challenge for me.
