MAKE IT VERBIER | VERBIER TOURISME
BRAND IMAGE CAMPAIGN - SWITZERLAND - 2024
Creative direction: Jean Colliard | Strategy & Narrative direction : Léonore Godo | Art direction : Pierre-Olivier Dezeque & team
Verbier brand is the communication face of the world's best ski resort (awarded in 2022). A prestigious & fearless client that chose BuzzBrothers agency for its rebranding in 2021. At the time, we co-developed This is Verbier, an amazing campaign that broke the rules of ski resort advertising by showcasing ground-breaking characters with an unexpected lifetsyle approach.
With a 4.7 million reach, 3.1 million views on the campaign videos 115 000 qualified clicks on Verbier's website - This is Verbier reached more than 1 in 2 Swiss people.
For 2024, it was time to build on this creative platform success & go one step further in creating the resort's ultra-desirable image. Continuing to convey #1 a positive & refreshing image of Verbier; #2 the variety of advantages of the station, beyond just ski; #3 the boldness that already seduced a large audience of Swiss & international people.
To do so, I decided to bring more action into the storytelling & diversify our iconic characters, to embody new relatable situations & get closer to our target. With Make It Verbier, we infiltrate our consumers mindset and needs, and position Verbier as the ultimate destination to enjoy (summer vacation), ride (winter vacation), work (remote working) & play (music activities).
Working, celebrating, going out, relaxing, playing... In Verbier, anybody, anything can become exceptional. With just one condition: Make It Verbier! Already promising KPIs for this one too, with 1.3 million reach; 3.6 million impressions and 80k sessions on the website.
