This ‘Friction > Resolution > Reassurance’ ad will be used for paid social advertising. It is essentially a mix of a testimonial and product demo.
The overarching message is that with the flexibility of Heidi, you could save money on your ski trip.
We would like a mix of speaking to camera and voice over with B-Roll clips weaved in. If you think something like a cut-out of yourself speaking over the top of the screen recordings would work then we’re happy for you to do this.
Heidi is a ski holiday provider that gives the customer huge flexibility on their holiday. We make it easy to find a holiday from thousands of options, with the ability to fly on any day, from any airport and for any duration.
When you book with Heidi you get the kind of flexibility you get by booking every aspect of a ski trip independently, but without spending loads of time and effort searching.
The added bonus is that customers also get ‘package holiday’ and ATOL protection, and a 24/7 customer support team at the end of the phone while you are on holiday (should anything go wrong) - peace of mind you simply don’t get if you book independently.
The Hook
For the opener, film yourself to camera saying:
Stop trying loads of dates to get a cheap ski deal, instead do this >>
Stop looking for cheap ski deals the old way. This new hack has changed everything
(Visual cue for hook - Please film yourself saying these hooks at a laptop/ipad with Heidi.com open, and have a jar in front of you with a post it note on it saying ‘Ski Holiday’ - Drop coins/notes into the jar while/after saying hook)
Please also provide hooks without the coin jar visual cue as well.

Heidi burst onto the ski holiday market in 2018 (formally known as Ski Zoom). We believe we are now the third biggest ski holiday company in the UK, and on track to become the second biggest.
Heidi grew from a desire to fix the lack of flexibility in the winter ski market. We help skiers and mountain lovers discover resorts that are hidden gems alongside the classics, and our clever tech is giving them the flexibility to do it in a way that suits them best. Customers can choose from over 300 resorts, fly the day of the week they want, and stay for as many days as they want - all in a few simple clicks.
Heidi, as a youthful, challenger brand, is shaking up a very traditional ski holiday industry. People are rejecting pre-packaged ski holidays in their thousands, and opting for Heidi, where they can find ‘The most flexible ski holidays, made easy’. And customers are loving the experience too! - our 4.9 rating on TrustPilot is testament to that.
