Imatra's summer feeling video reached more than 382 viewers.

The declaration as a national wonder in the spring of 2018 started a brand campaign according to the marketing plan of the city of Imatra, which continues to this day. One of this year's biggest single marketing measures was shown in Finnkino cinemas in the capital region Imatra's summer vibes video campaign, which has received positive feedback. The advertising video was shown selectively before the film on 24.5. - 31.7.2019 July 212, and the video was seen by more than 000 viewers.

During the spring and summer, Imatra's summer feeling video also gained visibility on YouTube and Facebook, where it received a total of almost 170 views by different people.
The purpose of Imatra's summer feeling video is to arouse the viewer's interest in Imatra, the National Wonder. As a result of these and other marketing measures, the increase in the number of visitors to Kansallisihme.fi from the previous year is more than 100 percent.   

The "Best holiday of the year" campaign, which tells about Imatra's versatile events, activities and services, started in spring and winter and reached a total of 140 people through electronic advertising. The announcements of the "Best holiday of the year" campaign were also published in the summer supplement of Helsingin Sanomat and in the summer newspapers of Etelä-Savo, Kymenlaakso and Etelä-Karelia regions.
The Ukonniemi campaigns are mainly aimed at two different target groups, active vacationers and sports clubs and professional sports teams. The advertising of Imatra's summer theater also reached a wide range of potential viewers and it was reflected in good ticket sales results.
Along with traditional media, Imatra Base Camp also did Google search word advertising and online banner advertising.
By continuously measuring marketing measures, we ensure the effectiveness of our investments and are able to refine the targeting of advertisements to what is most optimal, says the CEO of Imatra Base Camp Jukka Aallikko.

Kosken vetovoima vahva


Imatralla on ollut jälleen monipuolinen tapahtumakesä, joka on palvellut niin paikallisten kuin matkailijoidenkin tarpeita. Koskinäytösten palaaminen tarjontaan useamman vuoden tauon jälkeen osoitti sen, että kosken vetovoima on edelleen vahva. Koskinäytöksissä vieraili kuluneena kesänä noin 35 000 kävijää (n. 700 katsojaa/koskinäytös). Koskinäytösten järjestämisestä vastaa Imatra Base Camp.
Imatra Base Camp markkinoi kuluneen vuoden aikana Imatraa myös mm. Matka 2019 -messuilla, GoExpossa, Kongressimessuilla, Tampereen Supermessuilla, Maailma kylässä festivaaleilla, sekä useissa pienemmissä eri kohderyhmien myyntitapahtumissa. 
Kotimaan matkailun suosion kasvu näkyy myös Imatran seudun yöpymistilastoissa. Toukokuussa Imatran seudulla kasvua oli edellisvuoteen 12 prosenttia, kesäkuussa 43 prosenttia ja heinäkuussa 8 prosenttia.
