TORONTO, Nov. 15, 2016 /CNW/ - Creating campaigns that capture the attention of, and resonate with, target audiences continues to be a challenge faced by marketers every day. Driving content discovery and increasing visibility is elemental to a campaigns success.

This latest case study demonstrates how online restaurant reservation company, OpenTable, increased the performance of their news release by more than 200%.

Seating more than 19 million diners per month, OpenTable is an industry leader in the online restaurant reservation space but they had a new audience that they were keen to capture the attention of: travelers to the U.S.A.

To accompany their news release, OpenTable focused on creating compelling visuals; the result of which was six visual assets that were not only promoted alongside their release, but were used throughout their multichannel campaign including their website, blog and social platforms.

"The campaign exceeded expectations," said Tiffany Fox, Senior Director, Corporate Communications. "One of the key reasons why is because it also resonated in Japan. There are a lot of travellers from Japan that visit the U.S.A., and the Japanese media were receptive to our content—particularly the visuals."

These assets were viewed over 9,500 times and increased the performance of OpenTable's news release by over 200%.
