Proa Comunicación’s Campaign for Madrid SnowZone, Recognized Among the Best of 2018

Top Comunicación has recognized the marketing communications campaign of the 2nd National Winter Sports Awards, carried out by Proa Comunicación, as one of the best of the year. Marked in the category of Culture and Entertainment, the campaign was developed during the months of September, October and November of 2018, achieving media coverage valued at more than 100,000 euros.

The proposed strategy to achieve this objective was developed around two fundamental aspects. The first was the relevance of the winners and the second was the need to strengthen the brand and promote winter sports.

Campaign Implementation

• Campaña de notoriedad entre los clubes, las estaciones y las distintas federaciones autonómicas con el objetivo de sumar participaciones en los premios. Mediante acciones específicas de comunicación institucional, la campaña fue dirigida a estos públicos con el objetivo de lograr un número mayor de candidaturas respecto a la primera edición de los premios.
• Publicity campaign carried out in sports clubs, ski resorts and between different regional federations with the aim of maximizing participation in the upcoming contest. Through specific actions of institutional communication, the campaign was directed to these audiences with the aim of garnering a larger number of candidates with respect to the first edition of the awards.
• Institutional campaign, due to which María José Rienda (first woman to chair the High Council of Sports) and representatives of the Spanish Olympic Committee attended the event.
• Creación del storytelling del evento, que en 2018 adquiría especial notoriedad por la medalla olímpica lograda por Regino Hernández en los JJOO de Invierno de Pyeongchang. Por este motivo, el evento centró el foco en dos momentos especialmente emotivos: El show homenaje en pista (retransmitido por RTVE) en el que se emulaban los descensos en slalom y esquí alipino de Paquito Fernández Ochoa y Blanca Fernández Ochoa, y el del propio Regino en snowboard, homenajeando así a las tres medallas olímpicas de España.

• Post-event coverage focused on the winners, with a special emphasis on the figure of Regino Hernández.
