DiscoverLynchburg releases
Viral Video series….in
multiple languages!
With the constant growth in popularity of the in-
ternet, mobile technology and viral marketing op-
portunities, The Lynchburg Regional Convention and
Visitors Bureau (discoverLynchburg) launched one
of its marketing initiatives for 2011…a series of viral
videos. The videos, one for each local and regional
attraction and recreational site, are short, packed
with information and loaded with striking images.
“This format is perfect for use on internet sites
such as YouTube and Facebook” said Beckie Nix,
Director of the LRCVB. “The videos are fast and easy
to watch, and more importantly easy to pass on and
share. This is where you see the value of internet
marketing actually multiply, thus the term ‘viral’.
Each of the videos is between one and 2 minutes
in length and is released not only in English, but in
multiple foreign languages as well. “We are really
pushing for our share of the International travel mar-
ket’ said Nix. “They have longer to stay, and typically
more money to spend than domestic travelers, and
Lynchburg is so accessible now from the DC area”.
The first three videos in the series, the Blue Ridge
Parkway, Thomas Jefferson’s Poplar Forest and the
Liberty Mountain Snowflex Center, are already com-
plete, translated and posted on discoverLynchburg’s
website, YouTube channel and Facebook pages.
The videos can be viewed in English, French, Span-
ish and German.
“We will be launching the rest of the series sys-
tematically over the next few months, and I believe
Amazement Square is next on the list” Nix added.
“What a great way to spread the word about all
Lynchburg has to offer…and to be able to literally
share that information in other languages for poten-
tial visitors around the globe!”
