Advance notice/Hawaii HQ management

We sent out this event announcement to a total of 180 business partners centered on JTB Hawaii contracted hotels, restaurants and retail stores. Unlike advertising methods that use mass delivery we pinpointed the key parties by utilizing the network cultivated through our travel business which covers almost all of the major hotels in Waikiki. In addition, the world renown chefs of long-established restaurants such as Alan Wong and Mariposa, along with Consulate of Japan were among the participating as a guest.
For media, we were able to get a good Japanese-English media ratio balance with a total of 32 people from 21 media, including Hawaii’s largest media, Star Advertiser, famous food magazine, Frolic Hawaii, as well as ESPN, and others.

Creating /operating a dedicated website

Utilizing the JTB Hawaii Web Business Team, we also launched a dedicated website for the event. Normally, it takes time and money to launch a homepage for a one-shot event, however, by setting up a dedicated homepage on a pre-existing event site owned by JTB Hawaii, the cost can be greatly reduced. Having our own web-specialized team is another unique service JTB Hawaii can provide.

Media Exposure Examples/Post Event Report

The event was a great success with many media outlet covering the event. As JTB Hawaii is based in Hawaii, we are able to deliver a detailed post evet report utilizing our network to deliver raw opinion of the participants.
