THE CHALLENGE

Tomato Travel was virtually invisible in the Australian market. While bookings were coming in, customers didn’t remember the brand — they remembered the platforms selling the trips. High commissions were eating into profits and third-party marketplaces controlled the customer relationship. Tomato Travel was doing the work, but others were taking the credit. This lack of brand recognition made it difficult to build trust, grow direct bookings and scale internationally with confidence.

THE SOLUTION

Leo planned and delivered a brand-led growth strategy that combined event marketing with digital and performance channels to drive direct demand. A flagship event at the Sydney Botanic Gardens introduced the brand through an authentic Japanese experience with music, entertainment and healthy activities. The event increased brand awareness, social engagement and direct traffic to Tomato Travel’s website, helping the brand reduce reliance on third-party platforms.
