Sojern’s Award Winning Banner Ad Creative Services and Search Engine Marketing Offerings

Sojern understands the great importance of multichannel marketing. Each channel provides a unique opportunity to get in front of travelers where they are organically browsing. When you combine channels, the more effective your campaign will be. One of our customers, Little River Inn, experienced this first hand. Since 2019, they've partnered with Sojern on a commission model which utilized Search Engine Marketing (SEM), display advertising, and Facebook that resulted in a 6X return on investment (ROI).

Working with a partner who can provide multichannel solutions including these channels and others can help travel marketers reach travelers at the right time. And an extra bonus - if that partner can offer ad-creative services as well to ensure your message is communicated the right way to potential travelers.

I'm excited for the continued growth of this team and the support they provide to our customers,” said Laura Barker, Senior Creative Manager who leads the team at Sojern.

Sojern Earn Accolades for SEM

SEM, also known as paid search, is one of the most effective channels travel marketers can use to reach the right traveler, at the right time, with the right message. The Sojern team is focused on providing the highest quality SEM services for travel marketers with budgets of all sizes.

Sacha Lien, Director of New Initiatives, states the importance of SEM and the role Sojern plays in it:

"SEM is an essential always-on channel for Hotel, Attractions, and Tourism marketers that captures demand and drives new customers throughout the consumer journey. With proprietary Machine Learning, Sojern interprets thousands of travel signals to ensure we bid for the right keyword at the right time. In addition to SEM, Sojern drives direct demand for travel marketers from Display, Facebook, and CTV channels.”

Our team continues to optimize our SEM offering and deliver results for our customers and we’re thrilled to be recognized as one of the best SEM agencies in Singapore. The Best in Singapore award highlights Sojern’s accessibility, specialization in travel and hospitality, and our international reach.
