Lauren Cleland, the Director of Marketing and Data Intelligence at Visit Savannah, discusses a recent successful pop-up event they hosted in New York City. She shares valuable insights into why pop-up events are an effective way to advertise your destination, regardless of its size or budget. She also provides insider tips on how to plan and execute such an event and emphasizes the significance of marketing that requires minimal effort on the consumer's part. With plans to host another event in Chicago soon, this episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to increase tourism and drive more visitors to their destination. Join us as we dive deep into the details of experiential advertising.

"If you have a big idea don't shoot it down before you ever give yourself a chance to make some magic happen. I don't care if that big idea is a new website, if it's having a TikTok account, if that big idea is having a pop up event. Don't talk yourself out of something and don't let someone else talk you out of something if you believe in it."
