Challenge

Robb Report, the de facto arbiter of luxury lifestyles, was producing one of the most exclusive events in history: the grand opening of Sindalah, an island resort launching a new global yachting season on the Red Sea. They turned to S3 McMillan to help develop a bespoke communication strategy to compel attendance by the world’s most influential individuals.

Insight

To stand out among the VVIP set’s constant stream of elite invitations, we needed to elevate the historic nature of this moment: attendees would be the first yachters ever to explore a new region of the world. We built unparalleled exclusivity into every touchpoint – from personalized invitations and password-protected websites to immersive email journeys, yacht communications, and event app experiences.

Action

S3 McMillan crafted a FOMO-fueled communications strategy designed to excite, intrigue, and inspire action. In close collaboration with Robb Report’s personalized outreach, we helped ensure a global mix of business titans, celebrities, and more were in attendance to make history at this first-of-its-kind gathering.

“To provide the refined marketing expertise and deep level of support that was needed for this historic launch, S3 McMillan immediately made themselves part of our team – and continued at that level all the way through event completion. With so many moving parts for an event of this magnitude, that level of same-side interaction was critical to ensuring our success.”
