The Place Marketer of the year jury describes the campaign’s nomination in the final as follows:
“Visit Roslagen wanted to enhance Roslagen as a destination of choice and generate more visitors. They turned to active nature lovers and everyday life revellers announcing the opportunity to become travel journalists. After selection, the “journalists” had to choose an experience in Roslagen and then filmed the visit that was then shared digitally. Over 2,700 people from across the country applied and through their chosen marketers, Roslagen obtained a significant digital impact.
