Hooroo launches ATL push, ‘We’re all travellers’
Social media travel site Hooroo has moved into the above the line phase of its launch with an outdoor and online video component.
Using the tagline “we’re all travellers”, the campaign is aimed at travellers of all stripes, with a manifesto-style TV ad.
The campaign continues the use of the “that place” hashtag and messaging that initial social media seeding activity centred around.
Hooroo head of marketing, Lija Wilson said in a media release: “After four weeks of social seeding, we are moving into phase two of our launch. This phase focuses on expanding on the brand story and emphasising Hooroo’s differentiated approach – to offer inspiration and social discovery as well as the ability to book somewhere to stay.”

Targeting a relatively younger audience of 20-30 year olds? It seems so to me with the voice over of the girl, and the music played in the background. That resonates deepest within me. I fit within this age group, and I consider myself a traveller and never a tourist.

I don’t know that their target is young but I’m impressed with the approach. It’s nice to see someone in travel doing something a bit more social and although I haven’t used the site to book a hotel, I tip my hat to whoever is running their content. It’s good stuff

“A tourist and not a traveller” is a bit of a cliche. It’s all semantics, really. That being said, I enjoyed the TVC and had noticed the outdoor ads. Will be checking out the site for sure.
