A special thanks to Feng Jingjing who provided information and insights for this video. This case discusses the marketing strategy employed by Crowne Plaza Hefei facing increased competition and declining corporate budgets for end-of-year annual meetings. The hotel developed a unique "Masquerade Party" themed event, which included customized elements like formal attire, photo opportunities, and themed package options. By providing an immersive and interactive experience, the hotel generated substantial interest and bookings from companies looking to host their annual meetings. The success of this themed event highlights the value of understanding customer needs, creating a distinctive experience, and leveraging special occasions to drive hotel bookings and revenue during challenging economic times.
