承:迎合消费变化 挖掘特色价值
你是否会发现,当前越来越多的旅游方式演变成这样一种模式:先上网查找旅游攻略,然后浏览先行者的旅游点评,咨询亲友的建议,再制定自己的旅行计划。在政策大势及科技发展驱动下,目前文旅产业正发生何种变化?消费者的行为模式有何改变?这正是旅游目的地营销方式根据客户习惯而优化的关键所在。
组团OTA,个性路线受欢迎
步入文旅时代,旅游目的地营销,早已不是互联网兴起伊始时单纯的线上卖产品、线下盘剩余库存、中间狠抓产品的生硬方式。在消费选择及动机上,随政策及地区发展推动,旅游客源和目的地市场双双向中西部地区快速延伸,旅游消费范围不断拓展、体验性旅游消费支出比例增大,度假旅游常态化、邮轮等度假旅游产品仍是市场热点。
在出行形式上,从过去的组团旅游、商务游到现在通过OTA的家庭旅游占比达60%,好友组织出行占比约为20%。自由行成为主要出行方式,自驾游、乡村游持续升温等旅游形式成为出游常态。旅游消费市场在增量不断扩大的同时,旅游消费需求进一步提档升级,邮轮、海岛游、冰雪游等为代表的度假旅游消费增幅巨大。
同时, 顾客预订方式正在向移动端转移的变化,产品无线订单量的高速增长,表明移动互联网的发展和应用正在渗透着每一个领域。近年周边自由行市场呈现出两大特征:移动化,场景逐渐由PC端转移至mobile,手机客户端已经成为周边自由行最主要的预订方式;
即时决策,超过5半数的用户只提前1-2天预订,符合移动化和周边游的随意性,说走就走。Expedia 联合互联网信息服务商发布调研报告《旅行者购买路径》指出,大多数情况下,旅行者在开始研究和规划行程时都不会局限于某一个目的地。现在的旅游经营者身份已经发生了很大变化,旅游营销也发生了很大的变化。在全域旅游的大背景下,目的地原有关注的是路线设计、游玩设施等,现在更关注的是用户对生活氛围的体验和当地特色生活方式的体验,从前作为景点的产品供应商,现在则开始转变营销策略,成为异地生活方式的服务商。如何把旅游产品和旅游资源包装成一些有体验的旅游产品,更好的吸引游客?研究客户特性,以情感共鸣连接客户,才是移动社交时代,旅游目的地应该去思考的问题。
打包服务,朋友亲荐更靠谱
除去社交媒体的图片、旅游信息网站外,由亲朋好友推荐的“景+酒”路线是影响国内旅行者选择目的地的主要因素。
携程等、亲朋好友推荐是客户获取周边自由行出行信息的主要渠道。旅客通过对周边自由行数据的解读,可以看出市场前景态势良好,因此携程景+酒部门开发出以家庭、亲子、情侣、朋友等群体都有针对性的产品,提供数万种知名景区门票+周边酒店的套餐产品,以及郊区和知名景区的休闲度假酒店+酒店休闲设施的套餐,线路覆盖全国范围,不仅丰富消费者周边自由行出游的目的地选择,且为消费者选择出行目的地带来了极大的便利。
以客户第一视觉的旅游目的地营销成为高效新手段。如近年兴起的游多多旅行网,靠的是以客户体验传播,进行旅游目的地营销,其中,乌镇、大理、厦门、西塘、杭州为主要阵地。游多多积极开展金牌体验游活动,并在旅友当中挑选出体验员,每个体验员在免费入住归来后都需提交一份详尽的体验报告,包括寝具的洁净程度、房间舒适度、行程紧凑度及总体满意度等多项具体评价组成,通过体验报告内容的完整性以及创新性不仅仅分享给了更多的旅友,同时对相关旅游目的地所倡导的智慧旅游、体验旅游来说都是具有前瞻性和能够吸引品牌和用户双向沟通的有效契合点所在。
理解需求,提炼要点精准营销
站在旅游目的地角度,游客对于旅游目的地的体验和需求也越来越个性化,追求极致的生活体验,这对酒店在内的旅游目的地如何把资源进行提炼和包装,也提出了很高的要求。消费者更愿意为符合自己当下生活方式或向往的生活方式买单,在这个过程里面会发现,很多目的地可能有好的资源,但是并不为人所知,无法触达和影响有效的消费者,在这样一个机遇和挑战下,如何来做旅游目的地的营销?
随着消费升级变化,各大酒店集团挖净心思在考虑如何更好地迎合和满足消费者的需求,仅在2016年,包括洲际、安缦、凯悦、四季、威斯汀、安珀、7天酒店、诺富特等在内的不少品牌都对自己的logo进行了升级,其中希尔顿改头换面之后的一系列改变似乎更加符合目标消费群体的欣赏胃口。
根据国际知名的LOGO设计权威网站LogoLounge.com于今年5月底发布的《2017年LOGO设计趋势报告》,希尔顿酒店全新的设计正是当下消费者比较喜欢的“文本框”设计风格。
另外,完成分时度假和房地产投资信托业务的成功分拆之后,希尔顿宣布推出其最新品牌:Tapestry Collection by Hilton。该品牌是继Curio之后,又一全新的“软”品牌,旨在吸引三星级至四星级单体酒店。区别于标准化作业的“硬”品牌,这些保持一定风格与特色的产品的“软元素”酒店更有利与客人建立情感链接,也比较符合当下“定制”的体验感设计。
“根据我们的计划,我们接下来会对中国市场引入三个新品牌——格芮希尔顿精选酒店、希尔顿嘉诺宾酒店、安泊酒店。” 希尔顿花园和希尔顿欢朋在中国落地时间不久,从合作模式、运营模式、经营数据上来看,都有不少亮点。希尔顿亚太区销售副总裁Rupert Hallam在接受媒体采访时表示,之所以有这样的策略是因为希尔顿希觉察到消费客户习惯的悄然变更,希望针对中国市场的不同需求推出迎合这些市场需求的不同酒店。
Special Value Born From New Consumption
What kind of changes are taking place in cultural tourism, driven by the national policies and the advancement of technology? What kinds of changes taking place in the consumption patterns of travellers? And the answer is the crux of optimizing the service and products of destination marketing in cultural tourism.
OTA and Customized Itinerary Rules
Travelling destination marketing is no longer the traditional way in this cultural tourism era. In terms of consumption choice and motivation, travellers broaden their exploration area to mid-west regions with a wider range of new services. More and more money is spent in trendy daily vacation and tourism products such as cruise tour have been gaining the popularity.
In the meantime, the reservation methods have also changed with two traits: mobilization and immediate decision. Tourists used to focus on the itinerary and recreation facilities of a destination; however, the experience of various lifestyles has become the hottest selling point. How to attract travellers with premium travelling experience and connect them with feelings remains an imperative question to deal with.
Packaging Service and Recommendations from Friends
Besides from the fancy photographs on social media and online travel sites, the combination of “scenic spot + hotel” recommended by relatives and friends exerts a huge impact on choosing a destination.
Ctrip has launched a series of targeted products such as family tour, romantic couple tour or even friends tour, offering combination package of scenic spots and hotels. It not only offers more choices for travelling, but renders great convenience to customers.
The start-up travel site in tourism – Yododo focuses on travel destination marketing by inviting a few customers to experience hotels for free and to share their detailed report to the public. This experience is more realistic and convincing, and it’s also a good way to connect hotel brands and travellers.
Precision Marketing by Full Understanding
Travellers are no longer satisfied by simple service and amenities. They long for potential resources of a destination which are capable of touching and influencing their hearts and souls. And this change implies both opportunities and challenges to service providers.
With the change and upgrade of consumption, many hotel groups spare no efforts to meet the desires of travellers. These brands upgraded their logos in 2016 including InterContinental, Anman, Hyatt, Four Seasons, Westin, Maison Albar, 7 Day Inn and Novotel. And Hilton has become more popular after a series of changes.
Hilton has launched its latest brand - Tapestry Collection by Hilton, which tend to build up emotional connection to customers with stylish and special “soft elements”, corresponding with the customization design of the times. Realizing the consumption patterns of Chinese customers have changed, Hilton manages to launch new hotels to meet the new desires of travelers.
