About Us
Since founding Travel Ad Network in 2003, measuring offline response to online advertising has been a passion for Arrivalist’s founder, Cree Lawson. During Cree’s tenure with TAN, he saw how destination marketing organizations needed deeper and broader visitation intelligence, and the need to link that consumer behavior to their marketing efforts. Cree founded Arrivalist in 2012 to fill this pressing need and has built the platform as an always-on, panoptic “dashboard” for clients and agencies to understand relevant consumer visitation patterns.
Today, Arrivalist is the leading location intelligence platform in the travel industry. We use mobile location datasets to provide actionable insights on consumer behavior, competitive share, media effectiveness, and market trends. Over 200 travel marketers, including more than 100 cities, over 35 US States, and 3 of the top 10 US Theme Parks, use these insights to inform media strategy, operations, and destination development. The common thread is that all our clients value unbiased intelligence from a company that is not trying to sell media or audiences, but instead provide actionable consumer insights.
