Gull Air is a trusted Massachusetts-based regional airline connecting travelers across Nantucket, Hyannis, Boston, and surrounding coastal communities. As the company entered a new chapter with a full rebrand and business rebuild, they sought to strengthen their digital footprint to match their elevated vision. With growing seasonal demand and rising competition from both airlines and ferry services, Gull Air needed a modern, strategic marketing approach that reflected their renewed identity and supported long-term growth.
Challenge
Before partnering with Blue Seven Studio, Gull Air’s online presence was active but not strategically aligned.
Key challenges included:
-
Heavy reliance on seasonal traffic without year-round lead generation
-
Underleveraged social channels despite strong audience interest
-
Need for greater visibility in competitive search terms like “flights to Nantucket”
-
Fragmented paid media efforts that required clearer targeting and cost efficiency
Gull Air needed a unified digital strategy that drove flight bookings, increased brand awareness, and captured customer intent at every stage of the traveler journey.
