Influencer & creator campaigns

Creator campaigns, measured in bookings, not likes.

Hotel, resort, restaurant and experience creator programmes with the numbers that matter: reach and engagement before and after, brand mentions, and the direct booking or reservation lift that followed. Client names are withheld; the structure, briefs and measurement are exactly how we run these programmes.

Campaign results

Five creator programmes, before and after.

Filter by segment. Every campaign shows reach, engagement and brand mentions before and after, then the booking or reservation lift.

Campaign 01Mediterranean coast · EuropeIllustrative sample

Always-on creator programme — reach & direct bookings

Twelve creators, one shoulder season

≈180 keys · independent resort · shoulder-season occupancy problem

Two soft months either side of summer needed demand from drive and short-haul markets, and the resort had no creator programme, no usage rights and no way to convert a view into a booking.

Creator mix12 creators · 4 source markets · mid-tier (40K–250K) with two macro anchors

How we ran it
  • Creator selection by source market and audience overlap, not follower count
  • Briefs built around three bookable stories: long weekend, wellness, and family shoulder rates
  • Paid usage rights on every deliverable, then the best organic posts amplified as paid social
  • Trackable creator landing pages and codes so bookings could be attributed

Campaign 02Brazil · with creators from the USA and EuropeIllustrative sample

Pre-opening creator & press preview programme

A full house on opening night

≈95 keys · new-build lifestyle hotel · zero audience at start

The hotel had five months and no followers. It needed awareness in three source markets and a reason for the first guests to book rather than wait for reviews.

Creator mix9 creators + 6 editors · design, food and city-guide niches

How we ran it
  • Staged reveal: construction and design teasers, then chef and neighbourhood stories
  • Creator previews scheduled so content landed the week booking opened
  • Every asset licensed for paid, website and planner-facing sales use
  • Creator content recycled into the opening paid campaign and group sales decks

Campaign 03North America · two citiesIllustrative sample

Creator programme for midweek covers & private events

Filling Tuesdays, and the private dining room

3 restaurants · 1 rooftop venue · strong food, invisible online

Weekends sold out and midweek ran at half capacity. Private dining enquiries arrived by accident, and the venues had no repeatable creator motion.

Creator mix22 local creators · micro (8K–60K) with a weekly cadence

How we ran it
  • A rotating roster of local micro-creators instead of one-off macro posts
  • Midweek-specific offers and private-event stories with their own enquiry path
  • Corporate entertaining angle pushed to local business audiences on LinkedIn
  • Every organic winner amplified as paid within 48 hours

Campaign 04United States · multi-state portfolioIllustrative sample

Portfolio creator programme — management company

One creator engine across nine hotels

9 branded select-service hotels · one marketing team

Nine properties each wanted creator activity and none could justify a standalone programme. Content was inconsistent and nothing was licensed for reuse.

Creator mix31 drive-market creators · rotated quarterly by property

How we ran it
  • One framework, nine local creator rosters matched to each drive market
  • Standard brief, deliverable and rights template so every asset was reusable
  • Property-level tracking links and codes feeding the same reporting model
  • Quarterly creator rotation based on attributed bookings, not vanity metrics

Creator campaign for an experience venue

Selling out a rooftop season

Rooftop experience venue · seasonal programming · ticketed events

A seasonal rooftop programme needed ticket sales in a crowded market, with content that worked in English, Arabic and Russian.

Creator mix14 creators · nightlife, food and luxury-lifestyle niches · 3 languages

How we ran it
  • Creator mix built per language and per event type, not one blanket roster
  • Event-night content with same-night stories and next-day recap reels
  • Ticket links, promo codes and retargeting audiences built from viewers
  • Arabic and Russian creator content localised natively, not subtitled

Creator campaign for an experience venue — Selling out a rooftop season

Metrics shown are illustrative programme benchmarks and sample work drawn from Evoques campaign frameworks. They are not a guarantee of results and client identities are withheld. Creator names, client names and exact markets are withheld; figures are rounded and reflect a single programme. Past outcomes do not guarantee future results.

How we measure creator work

Reach is the start of the report, never the end.

Every creator programme we run carries tracking links, codes or a dedicated landing page, so reach and engagement sit next to enquiries, reservations and room nights in the same monthly report.

  • Reach, engagement rate, saves and shares — the intent signals, not just impressions.
  • Brand mentions and tagged content volume, tracked monthly against a baseline.
  • Attributed enquiries, reservations and room nights, with cost per attributed booking.
  • Licensed asset count, because content you can reuse in paid is part of the return.
Human-led · AI-elevated

Senior hospitality marketers and PR strategists lead every programme. AI is embedded in the work — audience modelling, creative testing, content production and performance analysis run faster and sharper — and every output is reviewed by a human strategist before it reaches a guest, a journalist or your brand.

For creators

We work with hospitality creators only — hotels, resorts, restaurants, bars, wellness, destinations and experiences. Submit your profiles, audience and rates and we will consider you for paid briefs as campaigns open.
