INTERNATIONAL MARKETS
activated within every Signature campaign
Austria is one destination, but it is not one audience. The Signature is built around that reality. Germany anchors the campaign as Austria’s dominant international source market, while the UK adds either the broad national reach of The Independent or the affluent, London-driven influence of The Standard. From there, the strategy becomes deliberately flexible. A Vienna city hotel, an Alpine resort and a luxury wellness retreat are not chasing the same traveller. That is why the final market is yours to shape: the Netherlands for proven demand, Arabia for high-value luxury travellers, or the Spanish-speaking market for growing travel and lifestyle reach, each paired with a media brand selected for its strength in that audience. This is not a fixed media bundle. It is a market strategy built around where your next guest is most likely to come from.
AN ADDITIONAL LAYER OF BUSINESS AUTHORITY
Every approved and confirmed campaign includes a Business Insider press release via Markets Insider, at no additional cost.
Released in strictly limited numbers, this exclusive campaign rate is available only to approved applicants while allocations remain. Once the final allocation is secured, the release closes and standard campaign pricing applies.
If you find the same media package, with the same publications, placement formats, and the same publishing conditions, at a lower verified price during the campaign period, let us know and we’ll match it.

The Signature expands the strategy beyond Switzerland’s European base and into the United States, one of the country’s most important and fastest-growing long-haul markets. Germany or the Netherlands forms the European starting point, the United Kingdom adds another established international audience, and USA Today opens access to the American market, where Switzerland recorded 3.7 million hotel overnight stays from US visitors in 2025, a new all-time high and a 5.4% year-on-year increase. From there, the final market is yours to shape: Spain through Travel + Leisure ES, France through Petit Futé, or the GCC through Harper’s Bazaar Arabia. The result is a campaign that moves beyond core European demand and allows the media mix to reflect the audience your property is looking to develop next.

The Premier is built for properties ready to position themselves across Switzerland’s most relevant international audiences at greater scale. The campaign establishes a strong European foundation through Germany, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom, adds TIME as a globally recognised media anchor, and extends into the United States through the available USA Today placement. From there, the strategy becomes deliberately selective: Italy, the Spanish-speaking market or the GCC, combined with a further French-market position through Grazia France or Petit Futé. Switzerland recorded 43.9 million hotel overnight stays in 2025, including a record 22.8 million from international visitors. The United States alone generated 3.7 million, Germany 3.9 million, while the UK recorded its highest level since 2010. The Premier turns that international demand into a broader media position, connecting your property with multiple audiences through a coordinated mix of European, long-haul and specialist international titles. One campaign. Multiple market positions. A media strategy built around where Switzerland’s international demand is already moving.

APPLICATION
Apply to be considered for the Switzerland Q4 2026 Media Campaign Series.
Access is by private invitation only. If you have been directed here, your brand has already been identified as a potential fit for this campaign.
There is no obligation or financial commitment to apply. Payment is required only if your application is approved. Only 7 campaign allocations are available across three campaign levels.
Applications close November 1, 2026, or earlier once all allocations are secured.
PAYMENT PLAN OPTIONS
We understand that larger media campaigns are often planned across annual budget cycles. Our payment structure allows eligible hospitality brands and destinations to secure their campaign at the confirmed promotional rate now, while selected campaign tiers allow part of the investment to move into the 2027 budget period. Each campaign may remain reserved until its applicable Media Slot Booking Deadline, giving you flexibility to choose when you are ready to activate and begin scheduling individual media placements.
-
Your first payment is invoiced immediately and is due within 7 days. Your campaign allocation is officially secured only once this payment has been received. Due to a very high demand and limited campaign availability, unpaid allocations may be released to another eligible brand after the payment deadline.
-
Once the first payment is received, your campaign remains reserved at the confirmed promotional rate until the applicable Media Slot Booking Deadline.
-
You may activate your campaign at any point before the deadline. If you choose to begin scheduling your media placements earlier, the next scheduled payment becomes due at activation.
-
This is the latest date by which the individual media placements included in your campaign must be scheduled and confirmed. It is not the publication date. Publication follows the confirmed campaign timeline and takes place after the booking deadline.
-
Your complimentary Business Insider press release (via markets insider) is unlocked once the first payment confirms your media campaign. It can be activated immediately or used later during your campaign reservation period.
The Business Insider placement must also be reserved no later than the Media Slot Booking Deadline applicable to your selected campaign.
