Orlando CVB Destination Advertising Initial reactions were overwhelmingly positive across all market segments. The appeal was rooted in how much fun can be had in Orlando….. “It gives a good sense of loving Orlando no matter how old you are. It makes you believe that you will have a great time with your kids.” ….. And families having fun together. “… the idea of being able to enjoy it with my kids…” The main message? In Orlando, parents can act like kids with their kids, bringing the family closer. “I loved the commercial (I thought I had seen it on TV too). It captures the true feeling that I get when I take my kids to the parks. Too often a parent is supposed to be a parent. The chance to be my child’s best friend (even for a short time) is priceless.” Source: WDW Proprietary Research
