Santa Monica Picks Pulse Travel Marketing In Canada
Santa Monica Travel & Tourism (SMTT) has picked Pulse Travel Marketing as its new in-market representative in Canada.
Pulse Travel Marketing will work with the Santa Monica Travel & Tourism team, to increase brand awareness and ensure that the destination, is prominently positioned with the travel trade, and key distribution media channels across Canada.
This will include the development and implementation of strategic trade, marketing, and communications programs to increase the profile of Santa Monica, maximize media opportunities and keep this beachside city top of mind with their target markets.
Misti Kerns, president and CEO of Santa Monica Travel & Tourism, said that: “Canada is a vital market for Santa Monica tourism and is in the top three countries for international visitors to our community.”
Kerns continued: “We are excited to partner with Pulse Travel Marketing as we elevate Santa Monica’s presence in Canada while highlighting the unique beach lifestyle experiences we offer. We are confident Pulse will leverage their knowledge and understanding of the Canadian travel trade and media to spotlight all that Santa Monica has to offer for a southern California visit. Our community is ready to warmly welcome Canadian visitors for a safe and responsible traveling experience with public health protocols in place.”
Sana Keller, Managing Partner and Public Relations Director at Pulse said “We look forward to working closely with our travel industry and media partners across Canada to attract more travellers to Santa Monica. Canada has always been a top producing market for Santa Monica, but many Canadians may not be aware that the city is home to the state’s widest beaches and a bike path that traverses 35-kilometers of Southern California coastline, unique shopping experiences on Third Street Promenade, Main Street’s excitement, great walkable neighbourhoods and the fact that Santa Monica is synonymous with happiness, sunshine and inclusivity.”
Annika Klint, Travel Trade and Marketing Account Director and Partner at Pulse Travel Marketing said, “We need to keep in mind that Canadians are a very savvy market that are already starting to take to the skies again. The market is primed, and our team can’t wait to begin our work with the travel trade across Canada.”
