Problem
The brief

What they wanted

Launch Annabel in Palmanova, Mallorca with no existing audience. Build desire before the first guest walked in and turn an opening night into a waitlist.

Solution
The approach

What we did

Designed a feed that spoke in the language of luxury, exclusivity and Mediterranean indulgence. Cinematic teasers, elegant reels and curated storytelling turned anticipation into demand. Every post reinforced an identity that was elegant, rich and effortlessly cool.

The playbook

Step by step.

4 moves
01

Brand world before the brand

Built the visual world, tone and reference language before a single dish was photographed.

02

Cinematic pre-launch

Teaser reels, location B-roll and curated stills used to seed desire across local and international audiences.

03

Waitlist as a product

Turned the booking page into part of the content, so every post drove toward a single conversion action.

04

Opening night as content

Documented opening week as a content event in itself, fuel for the next 90 days of feed.
