Orlando CVB Destination Advertising • Initial reactions were overwhelmingly positive across all market segments. • The appeal was rooted in how much fun can be had in Orlando….. “It gives a good sense of loving Orlando no matter how old you are. It makes you believe that you will have a great time with your kids.” • ….. And families having fun together. “… the idea of being able to enjoy it with my kids…” • The main message? In Orlando, parents can act like kids with their kids, bringing the family closer. “I loved the commercial (I thought I had seen it on TV too). It captures the true feeling that I get when I take my kids to the parks. Too often a parent is supposed to be a parent. The chance to be my child’s best friend (even for a short time) is priceless.” Source: WDW Proprietary Research
