ChaletFinder in the news – 2015/16

We often get asked about our marketing activity.  One particular channel we use is PR, and with the help of The PR Boutique, 2015/16 was a great season of coverage for us from three strands of activity.

  • Late deals – we issued weekly deals to the press that had savings or deal values over a certain threshold.
  • Press trips – with some of our organisers we were able to secure press trips and coverage this way
  • Outreach – we sent journalists newsworthy and unique press releases (as well as a few goodies to keep them interested in our brand)

Below we’ve highlighted some of the coverage we achieved.

Media coverage

With 40 pieces of coverage, we managed to be seen a whopping 12 milion times across the UK press – if we’d have paid for this advertising, it would have cost us over £300k!

Media Type

UK Nationals featured us the most (The Guardian, Metro etc.) with consumer magazines (Prima), regionals (Manchester Evening News) and the internet making up the rest of our coverage.
