Handsome housekeeper feeding |GreatCase100

This video is made by Dr. Pearl Lin and Dr. Clare Fung's project, "Great Case of Marketing in the Hospitality and Tourism Industry." A special thanks to Liu Xiaotian, who provided information and insights for this video. This case discusses a marketing strategy that leverages popular online trends and public relations tactics to promote a hotel brand and a major e-commerce platform. The key elements include: 1) Tapping into the widespread popularity of "domineering CEO" and "noble butler" themes in Chinese internet culture and staging a "handsome housekeeper" event to attract attention; 2) Carefully controlling the risks and social perceptions around the event, ensuring it is positioned as a one-time promotional activity rather than a regular hotel service; and 3) Filming the event across different hotel venues to showcase the Sofitel Hangzhou Yingguan property and generate significant exposure on social media platforms. The outcomes indicate significant reach and engagement but highlight the potential risks of such an approach, underscoring the importance of meticulous planning and monitoring to avoid unintended negative consequences.
本視頻由林博士和馮博士的專案「酒店和旅遊業行銷的傑出案例」製作。特別感謝劉嘯天為本視頻提供信息和見解。本案例討論了一種利用流行的在線趨勢和公共關係策略來推廣酒店品牌和主要電子商務平台的行銷策略。關鍵要素包括:1)利用「霸道總裁」和「貴族管家」主題在中國網路文化中的廣泛流行,舉辦「帥氣管家」活動吸引眼球;2)謹慎控制活動周圍的風險和社會認知,確保將其明確定位為一次性促銷活動,而不是常規的酒店服務;3)在不同的酒店場所拍攝活動,以展示杭州英冠索菲特酒店,並在社交媒體平台上產生大量曝光。這些結果表明了巨大的影響力和參與度,但也突出了這種方法的潛在風險,強調了細緻的規劃和監測以避免意外的負面後果的重要性。
