Case Studies

Visit Winchester

We run an integrated PR campaign for Visit Winchester, with our travel PR team using traditional media public relations and social media to promote events, accommodation deals and Winchester’s strong festival scene.

A regular press trip campaign focuses on achieving destination-led features in national and regional press.

Our online voice comes through @King_Alf (former King of Wessex and Twitter’s ‘man about town’) and a growing Facebook campaign, which enables direct interaction with fans of Winchester. This is mixed with Winchester City Council’s own YouTube videos, which showcase the city’s attractions, and its award winning website. To date, our online campaign has been shortlisted for three awards (winning Silver in one).

Within three months of starting the campaign, Flagship had exceeded the previous agency’s coverage value by 60% and delivered a 73:1 ROI on print coverage for 2009.

Watching a brilliant adaption of Mark Haddon’s A

  • PR mixology

    At our company ‘away’ afternoon a couple of weeks ago, our CEO Diana likened us to the different ammunition that form an army, a platoon, or a brigade, if you will. Everyone has the same career type, but we’re not all cut from the same cloth and it is these differences that make a winning team.

  • The Flagshipometer: what we think is hot, or not, right now

    We had a bit of a discussion the other day on what we at Flagship think is “on trend” or “so yesterday”.  By no means a scientific study, but we are a pretty cosmopolitan lot, wide age range, a few girls, a few boys, some urbanites, some country bumpkins – so as a quick temperature
