Project Profile

Annual Event Promotion

Visit Lake County took a different approach to their yearly Restaurant Week campaign, with a theme that emphasized support for the servers, chefs, bartenders hosts and all operators who persevered through the years of uncertainty during the pandemic. They wanted to focus on keeping business flowing to our most valuable community gathering spots.

What we did

By visiting restaurant locations throughout the county, we were able to film industry workers so that the focus of our campaign was on supporting the employees. We used this footage and photography throughout and implemented a cross-platform media plan for cost efficiency and maximum response.
