Slide 2 03 26 What is Im a GeePee Programme? Im a GeePee is a loyalty and travel discount programme that aims to inspire everybody to become tourists in Gauteng through dialing up affordability using compelling special offers; and personal loyalty and sense of identity (for Gautengers) using provincial ambassadors and peer recommendations, amplified on all marketing channels. Slide 3 Im a GeePee aims to mobilise Gauteng residents to become tourism ambassadors of their own province and so encourage others to visit Gauteng The main focus is on encouraging domestic tourism (inter- and intra-provincial), but does not exclude international visitors (Gautengers are GeePee's, but everyone can own the line Im a GeePee and this is my Gauteng when they visit Gauteng) A key segment is the young and upcoming emerging market of 18-40 year olds, because of their lifetime value and physical embodiment of the young, modern, urban Im a GeePee programme This target market very much epitomise what Joburg represents, urban appeal, fresh, evolving and go getters It is for this reason that Im a GeePee programme needs to be anchored by the City of Joburg Im a GeePee, I rock Joburg!
