There is no doubt that China, with the strongest economic power, is still a main pillar contributing to cross-border tourism. For instance, Chinese tourists are the largest contributors to Japan’s sightseeing economy. The number of Chinese visitors accounted for over a quarter, and the average per capita consumption reached 228,000 Japanese Yen, topping global tourists.
Vpon’s CEO – Victor Wu expressed that the collaboration between a large media and data company is absolutely the trend of digital marketing. On one hand, the alliance between Vpon and Qunar facilitates the expansion of the market for both sides. On the other hand, those advertisers who touch on tourism industry can reach the audience with precise targeting on Qunar. The massive amount of data and proprietary data analytical capability allow Vpon to reach the target audience at the right scenario with right marketing message to maximize the benefits by understanding the users’ mobile behavior. Vpon can, for example, help advertisers create interests before tourists start their trip, encourage local spending during the trip, and enhance brand loyalty after the trip. However, the key to success is turning insights into actions. With the data collaboration of both parties, optimization strategy can be implemented much better and eventually boost the performance of the ad campaigns. This is what Vpon’s mission – helping advertisers achieve a new milestone through the power of data.
