Situation
Kimpton Seeks More Engagement Online

User-Generated Content seen as valuable.

Needed an efficient content gathering solution.
Kimpton Hotels, famed for their luxurious yet modest offerings, aimed to elevate their social media presence and boost online bookings. Despite having a dedicated guest base that appreciates their unique experiences, the challenge was to turn this admiration into visible online engagement. The brand recognized the power of User-Generated Content (UGC) as a means to achieve this, offering the authenticity and storytelling potential that traditional marketing couldn't match. Kimpton sought to leverage photos and experiences shared by guests to enhance engagement on their platforms, thereby increasing online reservations. This necessitated a solution that could gather and display guest content efficiently while still aligning with the group’s branding initiatives.
