SUMMARY
In launching a campaign focused on the transformational benefits of a hotel stay rather than the luxurious amenities provided, The Ritz-Carlton aimed to recover business performance, modernize its image, and attract elusive younger consumers. In the six months after campaign launch, The Ritz-Carlton had already eclipsed every key business, perceptual, and campaign metric in every country. Average daily room rates increased by 21.2%, relevance grew by as much as 16.6%, modernity grew by as much as 30%, and consideration amongst <55 consumers grew by as much as 39.3%.
