Content marketing strategy

The subdirectorate for Marketing Tourism Abroad has structured its content strategy around the creation and production of its own multimedia content (text, images, animations, video, audio, etc.) that supports the different promotional and marketing activities of Turespaña in the implementation of the 2021-2024 Strategic Plan.

Own content is therefore a very important factor in the organisation's marketing strategy. This content is disseminated through a variety of channels, including but not limited to:- The spain.info website- Turespaña profiles on social media- Periodic newsletters sent to contacts in our databases using CRM- Events organised for the general public, fairs, workshops, etc. organised by the Network of Tourism Departments abroad.

The aim is to carefully select differentiated and segmented content to offer customised information to different target audiences, applicable to all media and formats.The content creates a differential story about Spain as a destination, helping to inspire, anticipate the travel experience and stoke up excitement.In particular, the contents focussed on:- Segmentation by profiles. The content must be relevant to each of the target audiences it is aimed at, as defined by TURESPAÑA in each case.- Originality and creativity. The content must be creative and original enough to grab the attention of the target audience.- Quality and innovation. Commitment to the progressive incorporation of less conventional formats (podcast, 3D videos, augmented reality, virtual reality, etc.).- Virality. We are committed to creating different digital content that generates a positive and surprising effect on potential tourists, meaning that they are likely to share it.- Liquid content. It is important for content to be planned in such a way that it can be used easily and alternatively on different media. - It must exalt the values ​​of Spain as a tourism brand. In particular, values ​​associated with the three axes of sustainability: socio-cultural, economic and environmental.

Management of multimedia content

The creation of Turespaña's own content means it is necessary to have tools that allow for the efficient, rapid and shared management of resources. To this end, we have VIDEOMA, multimedia management software, which allows us to store all content, whether owned and transferred, in a single location that can be accessed by all Turespaña staff, including Tourism Departments located abroad. Through Videoma, we work exhaustively to catalogue all the content generated, describing each piece in such a way as to optimise the search for resources. With this in mind, staff with access to the tool can consult any rights over the material, who transferred the material, potential uses, etc.
