What We Deliver

Full-service representation, not just press releases.

DACH Press Relations

Placements in the travel, lifestyle, and luxury titles that DACH affluent travellers actually read — from Condé Nast Traveller DE to Süddeutsche Zeitung Magazin and Falstaff.

Influencer Relations

Curated partnerships with German-speaking travel creators — from high-reach to niche luxury — who move their audience from screen to booking.

Trade & DMO Outreach

Introduction and relationship-building with German tour operators, luxury travel agencies, and destination marketing offices — the B2B pipeline that drives volume.

Press Trips & Fam Trips

End-to-end organisation of media and trade familiarisation trips — from journalist selection and briefing to post-trip follow-up and coverage tracking.

Event PR & Launches

New openings, seasonal launches, and special events — strategy, invitations, guest list curation, and coverage from Berlin or on-location.

Market Intelligence

Quarterly reporting on DACH travel trends, competitor landscape, and media opportunities — so your revenue team can plan with local insight.

The DACH media world runs on relationships built over years.

Germany, Austria, and Switzerland represent one of the highest-spending outbound travel markets in the world. But DACH journalists, influencers, and travel trade contacts work within their own ecosystem — one that takes years of in-person presence to enter.

PEPPER PR has been building those relationships since 2010, from our base on the Kurfürstendamm. We know who writes about where, which influencer actually drives bookings, and which trade partner sends the right guests.

For an international hotel, engaging a local specialist is not a workaround — it is the strategy.

Deep media network across DACHEstablished relationships with travel editors, luxury lifestyle journalists, and trade publications in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland.
Vetted influencer rosterWe maintain an active shortlist of German-language creators benchmarked by engagement quality and audience demographics — not just follower count.
Anchor client expertise in HospitalityOur long-term work for the AMANO Group Berlin means we understand hotel operations and revenue cycles — not just communications.
Transparent reportingMonthly clippings reports, influencer analytics, and quarterly market briefings — in English, for your global team.
