Approach

Recognising the urgency due to heightened media interest, DAC Group implemented a multi-faceted digital strategy:

  • Domain Establishment: A dedicated Irish domain was created to distinguish the new village from the UK operations, aimed at tailoring the user experience specifically for the Irish market.

  • Market Research: In-depth analysis of the Irish digital landscape and consumer behaviour was conducted to tailor the campaign effectively.

  • Rapid Website Development: A temporary website was launched to immediately engage with the burgeoning interest, ensuring a quick, cost-effective solution while planning for a more permanent digital presence.

  • Strategic Content and Data Capture: The temporary site served dual purposes: to educate visitors about Center Parcs’ offerings and to capture data for ongoing marketing efforts, thereby building a foundation for sustained engagement.
