The campaign links the soccer experience to the broader tourism experience in the destination, and achieves three key goals :
Each itinerary will be produced on high-quality fold-out maps with detailed
information about the associated experiences and events during the 2010 FIFA
World Cup™.
Each itinerary has a designated ambassador – an authentic local character who
brings the destination to life through engagement with the media, at events, and
on the dedicated campaign website: beyondthe90minutes.com.
We also have fan ambassadors – soccer fanatics from across the campaign’s
sixteen target markets who have already experienced the special 2010 itineraries
and tell the story of their experience in their home language through videos on
YouTube, blog entries and in direct engagement with the media.
Consumer competitions and promotions will be run periodically, managed via the
website and Facebook, with communications via e-mail and Twitter to alert
interested visitors about new events, opportunities, and the latest buzz as the
2010 build-up nears its climax in June.
