Holiday Inn readies Virgin Radio promo

Virgin Radio is to target its business listeners for the first time as part of an integrated marketing campaign for global hotel chain Holiday Inn.

Holiday Inn will use on-air advertising to direct listeners to a promotional microsite that will push the benefits of the hotel brand's services to the business community.

Breaking on 18 November, the one-month 'You're Ready for Business' push will see Holiday Inn feature in call-in competitions and on-air editorial segments on Virgin Radio's Pete & Geoff drive-time show.

Listeners will be encouraged to visit the microsite via the station's main home page (www.virginradio.co.uk), which will host details of a competition to win Holiday Inn prizes.

The on-air and online activity will be supported by point-of-sale material in Holiday Inn hotels, which will encourage customers to visit the Virgin Radio site.

A spokesperson at Holiday Inn said: "The Pete & Geoff show provides the perfect environment for us to communicate messages with businesspeople as they drive home from work."
