Jives Media did digital makreting for Miami Boat Party

Overview

The Miami Experience Boat Party is Miami’s top-rated party cruise, hosting thousands of guests each year who come for one thing — the ultimate party on the water. 

The company offers 3-hour open-bar cruises complete with live DJs, skyline views, and VIP experiences. Their audience is diverse but unified by one goal: making the most of their Miami trip. As bookings increased, The Miami Experience wanted to expand beyond word-of-mouth and walk-up sales, aiming to drive consistent online reservations and maximize ad-driven ROI year-round.

Challenges Before
Working with Jives

  • Reliance on third-party listing sites and last-minute walk-ups limited long-term predictability in bookings.

  • No unified strategy to track or attribute paid ad performance, leading to an unclear cost per booking.

  • Website lacked conversion flow optimization for mobile users, where the majority of traffic originated.

  • Low brand visibility against larger event operators and tour aggregators competing for the same tourist traffic.

  • Minimal post-booking engagement or remarketing to drive repeat or referral guests.
