To encourage visits, the campaign used through three main components: social media, press and digital marketing. We:
- Worked with well-known influencers who could share their story for regional Welsh media titles including Hollywood actor Luke Evans (Big Pit & National Roman Legion Museum) and BBC presenter, Huw Stephens (National Museum Cardiff & St Fagans)
- Pitched newspaper columnists to share their memories in print and online
- Brought travel and lifestyle bloggers and TikTokkers on board to share stories of museum visits on their channels
- Created a bilingual social content calendar for the Museum’s channels. Instagram Reels were the stand-out!
