LAUNCH OF ‘RE-ENERGISE IN
AUSTRALIA’ GLOBAL BUSINESS EVENTS CAMPAIGN |
 |
|
Tourism Australia’s new Business Events campaign –
'Re-energise in Australia' was launched by the Hon Fran Bailey
on 12 February 2007, in FortyOne at the Rialto in
Melbourne.
The new, multi-level campaign specifically
targets corporates and intermediaries operating within 11
industry sectors in the UK, North America and Asia (China,
Taiwan, Korea, Malaysia, Thailand, Hong Kong, India and
Singapore), as these countries deliver the bulk of Australia’s
business events business.
The new campaign, which
focuses on direct mail, aims to reach three target audiences
with a unique and personalised invitation to consider
Australia as the destination for their next business event.
Corporate decision makers, corporate influencers and corporate
intermediaries will receive a uniquely Australian gift and
event kit, supported by a virtual online guide and knowledge
resources, and the latest email marketing database procurement
technology.

edge campaign, click here.
