What our clients say

Widened our reach and boosted website views

We wanted to align Meldrum House Country Hotel with Visit Aberdeenshire to widen the message about the hotel and their luxury dining domes.  Whilst the hotel has a strong social media following and large database, reaching a new audience that may be looking to visit Aberdeenshire, proved to be invaluable with the two campaigns we ran.  The results showed an increase in website views which were significantly up during the period of the campaign.  It also escalated the domes into the 4th most viewed pages on analytics for the Meldrum House website.

The ‘What’s On’ section was an excellent fit for us

VisitAberdeenshire’s advertising packages have provided us with a targeted channel to promote events as diverse as Arenacross and Beyond Van Gogh to new audiences across Scotland and beyond. The ‘What’s On’ section was an excellent fit for us, as well as the adverts placed on VisitAberdeenshire's social channels.

Rob Wicks Managing Director, P&J Live, 2025

Through our campaigns we have seen spikes in website traffic and enquiries which helped sell out our events.

Alison MacLeod Marketing Director, Crerar Hotels Group, 2025

The social media advertising package was a great success, significantly boosting followers on Instagram and Facebook. We saw a worthwhile increase in engagement and bookings during and post campaign. VisitAberdeenshire made the process seamless with their helpful support and easy-to-follow content guide. Highly recommend.
