Challenge & Solution
Longstanding client, Manchester’s five-star The Lowry Hotel, tasked Brazen with a zensational project to launch its new technologically advanced spa, RE:TREAT.
Brazen undertook a strategic launch including traditional PR, influencers and perfectly executed launch event – driving awareness of RE:TREAT’s unique facilities and wellness credentials regionally & nationally – resulting in customer bookings.
Brazen curated a narrative for RE:TREAT’s unique tech-first offering, positioning the spa as ‘UK’s first tech spa’ – supported with a programme of regional and national media reviews, including key health and lifestyle journalists to try out the facilities at RE:TREAT to secure first person write-ups.
To introduce key movers and shakers to the new spa, Brazen arranged a launch event with 100+ guests including press contacts and VIPs – Brazen curated a memorable event in keeping with the aesthetics of the spa, featuring a surprise yoga performance from famed instructor Claudia Mirallegro and soundtracked by local Mancunian DJ.
To generate awareness of RE:TREAT’s new wellness suite and programme of fitness classes locally, Brazen arranged a targeted micro influencer yoga and breakfast event – working with some of the city’s most engaged health and lifestyle influencers.
