The Great Sleepover Toolkit

 

 

IT’S TIME TO GET VISITORS BACK TO OUR REGION

It’s time to invite your friends, family, past guests back.
All those that have been, loved and have missed the region as much as we’ve missed them. 

The Great Sleepover campaign encourages locals and industry partners like yourselves to invite the people you’ve missed most, back to visit our region and stay for a sleepover. 

We have lots of marketing activity planned:

 

  • Direct mail
  • Print
  • Television
  • Radio
  • Digital advertising; and
  • Content partnerships
…and we want you to join in and help encourage your customers to Wake Up to the Great Ocean Road. 
Our Marketing Manager, Lee Malady shares the details of our #thegreatsleepover campaign in the video below:

Step 4. Submit your retail offer & give visitors a reason to visit now
All campaign traffic will be directed to our campaign landing page www.visitgreatoceanroad.org.au/sleepover so make sure your business is featured.

Simply submit your retail offer here.

PS…. Because you live in our region you have probably also received our Great Sleepover Postcard Packs!

So don’t forget your own friends & family and get sending. Pick four of your nearest and dearest and invite them on down to visit. Better still, plan a trip and explore the region with them.

Our region takes in the views and experiences from Torquay to the South Australian border and we’re sure there’s a beach, mountain, lake, volcano, feast, waterfall, or walk that should be on your bucket list!

So please support this campaign and encourage your loved ones to wake up to the wonder of our region and  its breath taking landscapes.

After all, your absence makes the heart grow fonder, but your presence makes our region grow stronger.
