STRATEGY
Understanding Channel Performance
-
Fospha placed web tags to capture granular information about where Mandarin Oriental’s visitors were coming from, how many times they visited the site and which individual pages they landed on most frequently.
-
We then deployed our data-driven attribution model to value each interaction in the customer journey, allowing Mandarin to understand channel performance at each customer and hotel-level
-
Fospha measured customer interactions with the Mandarin Oriental’s site and pulled them into a Customer Data Platform (CDP), where individual customer journeys were tracked across Mandarin’s marketing channels, creating a single customer view.
-
Fospha integrated the solution with Mandarin Oriental’s existing investment in a data-driven strategy, alongside their agency Blue449.
-
Fospha integrated cost data from comparison sites to arrive at the real data-driven cost of acquisition and ROI for this channel.
-
Fospha’s team delivers multiple Paid Search optimization reports on a daily basis, allowing Mandarin Oriental to view keyword performance by hotel.
INSIGHTS & RESULTS
