Kings Island
Kings Island, one of the country's leading amusement parks, was faced with flat attendance for three consecutive years. Attendance age was narrowing to 25 years and under, creating erosion of their broad consumer base and reducing revenue. Advertising efforts were focused pm the local market only and they lacked advertising presence in the outer markets of Indianapolis, Lexington and Louisville.
