National Geographic
Complete brand management
The brief
Founded in 1888, the National Geographic Society is the world’s largest non-profit scientific and educational organisation. The Society’s media interests cover television, books, magazine publishing and websites, while its travel magazine, National Geographic Traveler, is one of the world’s most widely read travel titles, with numerous international editions. In 2010, National Geographic Partners, the Society’s media arm, required a local partner to launch the Traveller brand in the UK, develop a local voice and manage content across multiple platforms
Our approach
ÐÓ°ÉPro launched National Geographic Traveller (UK) in 2010, building upon the Traveller brand with a unique magazine for the UK, published six times a year. A website and iPad edition quickly followed, while the magazine has since increased in frequency to 10 times a year.
In the decade since ÐÓ°ÉPro launched the title in the UK, National Geographic Traveller has gone from strength to strength, while the relationship with National Geographic Partners has continued to evolve as requirements have changed.
In addition to producing an award-winning magazine, APL’s digital team work closely with National Geographic’s online editor to manage the Travel section of , providing engaging articles that match the brand’s editorial priorities and managing social media channels and newsletters. In addition, editorial content produced by APL’s team of editors is frequently syndicated across other international language editions.
A range of popular events have helped the brand to engage with its loyal audience in new ways, and we launched sister magazine National Geographic Traveller Food in 2018, helping the title expand into new markets.
