with the added reach and power of Dynamic QR Codes and Digital Connectivity<br />
<strong>The</strong> new <strong>Daily</strong> <strong>Adventure</strong> Visitor Guides will deliver you more business right through<br />
<strong>2021</strong> - a ‘revival year’. After 19 years of producing ‘Your <strong>Daily</strong> <strong>Adventure</strong>’ (Ireland’s number<br />
one visitor publication), we are strengthening a winning formula to help bring you more visitor<br />
business, in more ways, at a lesser cost, during these tougher times.<br />

<strong>New</strong>-look Regional Visitor Guides to stimulate more visits<br />
‘<strong>The</strong> <strong>Daily</strong> <strong>Adventure</strong>’ is a highly trusted brand. For the 20th edition of our guides, we have given<br />
them an all-new look. This includes a strong focus on the Regional name of each edition. This will<br />
encourage even greater pick-up by holidaymakers and trip-takers and will stimulate more ‘visit<br />
and buy’ activity.<br />
We are prioritising domestic visitors, and particularly<br />
motorists throughout <strong>2021</strong>. You should too!<br />
While we expect to welcome some overseas visitors during <strong>2021</strong>, the domestic market will dominate and<br />
be your greatest source of business throughout the year. For this reason, our guides will be distributed<br />
to a wider range of pick-up points. In addition to reaching domestic visitors at accommodation and<br />
tourist points, we will target them via service stations, cafés, and selective shops. Couples and families<br />
travelling by car are the biggest readers of our guides, and they are THE segment that will be critical to<br />
your business revival. Reading and prompted by our guide, they can drive to your attraction, experience,<br />
or area within minutes or hours.<br />
365,000 copies of our guides will be SELECTED BY CHOICE and read by<br />
over 1.6million holidaymakers and trip-takers. Here’s why that’s a big deal.<br />
‘<strong>The</strong> <strong>Daily</strong> <strong>Adventure</strong>’ will print 365,000 copies and will have a readership of over 1.6 million visitors.<br />
What’s even more important is that each guide is picked up by choice and interest. <strong>The</strong> guides don’t<br />
‘fall out of newspapers’, nor are they pushed through letter boxes. Instead, they are actively selected<br />
by visitors specifically to help them plan their trips and to decide what they will do next. This means they<br />
are far more likely to win you business than any other promotional choice you might be considering.<br />

Easier read, even on the move<br />
We’ve also changed the internal design of the visitor guides to make it easier for<br />
everyone to use - whether for planning their trip or when using them ‘on the move’<br />
during trips. <strong>The</strong> new design will also make it easier to see and read your offering<br />
within the guide.<br />
Your message is ever-present through the main<br />
season and shoulder seasons<br />
When you pay for ad-hoc advertisements with others, its impact is typically fleeting<br />
if it has any impact at all. In contrast, feature in one or more of our <strong>Daily</strong> <strong>Adventure</strong><br />
Regional Guides and your message is placed in front of visitors throughout the<br />
main season and shoulder seasons. Our guides are precisely targeted and work<br />
harder for you 24/7.<br />
Our Visitor Guides are distributed to over 1,900 locations<br />
and are tracked<br />
Our vans and our merchandisers are on the road throughout the year, tracking and<br />
ensuring our guides are always available to holidaymakers and trip-takers. <strong>The</strong>y<br />
replenish brochure supplies as needed, and we increase the frequency of our calls in<br />
high season so that your message is always in front of visitors when they are thinking<br />
‘what will we do next?’.<br />
<strong>The</strong> added power of QR Codes and digital connectivity<br />
Readers of our visitor guides frequently connect to your online presence for<br />
additional details, particularly during these ‘COVID-19’ times. We are strengthening<br />
the print to digital connection by highlighting within our guides the websites of all<br />
featuring businesses and by introducing dynamic QR Codes to connect directly to<br />
each business. In this way, visitors have multiple ways of digitally connecting or<br />
arriving to you.<br />

Where the Blarney Began<br />
Nestled in the charming village of Blarney is one of Cork’s<br />
greatest treasures. Built nearly 600 years ago, Blarney Castle<br />
is known the world over for the famous Blarney Stone that<br />
has been a must see attraction for over 200 years!<br />
<strong>The</strong> Blarney Stone is believed to be one half of the<br />
stone of Scone, which was given by Robert the Bruce to<br />
Cormac McCarthy in 1314 for his support in the Battle of<br />
Bannockburn. World statesmen, literary giants and legends<br />
of the silver screen have joined millions of pilgrims who<br />
climb the towers steps to kiss the stone every year in the<br />
hope to receive the ‘Gift of Eloquence’.<br />

QR Codes have really come into their<br />

the physical world to the digital world.<br />
When you feature in our visitor guides,<br />
we generate a QR code to link from<br />
your profile directly to your online<br />

For example, we can link to the page<br />
on your website featuring your opening<br />

Tracking and Verifiable Placement of<br />
our <strong>Daily</strong> <strong>Adventure</strong> Guides in front<br />
of holidaymakers and trip-takers<br />
‘Targeted placement with best prospects’ is a big point of difference between the <strong>Daily</strong> <strong>Adventure</strong><br />
and other publications. It’s why our guides are so effective. We work to place EVERY copy of the<br />
guide in front of holidaymakers and trip-takers at the point when they are contemplating ‘what<br />
will we do next?’.<br />
Because of the importance of placement, we have invested in new<br />
customised ‘brochure tracking’ software that tracks where<br />
every <strong>Daily</strong> <strong>Adventure</strong> is placed. Trialled in 2020, it means we<br />
will be able to provide precise and verifiable data on the<br />
distribution and placement of our <strong>2021</strong> guides.<br />
Where visitor guides are verifiably placed should<br />
matter to all marketers. Targeted placement of<br />
your message to ‘best prospects’ results in higher<br />
conversion rates and more business for you.<br />
