The look and feel and the content create an experience that is warm and inviting, so guests feel like part of the family and consider Solmar their Cabo home.
Holistic Digital Marketing
Milestone’s holistic digital strategy for Solmar included creating responsive desktop and mobile sites that are optimized for user experience and conversion. Each site is fully responsive for mobile and tablet, so that customers can connect, engage, book and share from any device and from anywhere. The sites have robust navigation, schemas, conversion elements and engaging content highlighting the unique selling points and destination – all reinforced with social signals and paid search. Integrated blog and event calendar modules were designed to engage new customers and share the Solmar story. Milestone continues to create blogs and social posts to keep the sites fresh, exciting and in the conversation, while promoting local events, attractions and what’s happening at the resort.
Driving Conversions for Groups and Outlets
