Section 2: Vision and Objectives
Every enduring estate begins with a clear vision, a guiding principle that defines how it should feel, operate, and be perceived. For Bittescombe, that vision now centres on independence and authenticity: an estate rooted in tradition yet looking forward with confidence. The new website and marketing strategy should not only promote its sporting credentials, but express its philosophy of hospitality, where every guest, whether gun or guest, feels part of something genuine, timeless, and quietly remarkable.
The core objective of this proposal is to establish Bittescombe-Shoot.com as the definitive digital expression of the estate’s sporting identity. The website will serve as a modern gateway to the field-sporting world of Bittescombe, combining visual elegance, storytelling, and functionality in a single platform. Beyond the digital, it will also act as a conceptual anchor, ensuring every piece of communication aligns with the estate’s values and voice.
In crafting this vision, we have identified five principal objectives:
1. Define a Distinct Identity: To separate Bittescombe’s sporting brand from previous associations, ensuring it stands independently as a refined, autonomous destination.
2. Demonstrate Sporting Excellence: To showcase the quality of the driven shooting, stalking, and fishing experiences through compelling imagery, testimonials, and editorially driven content.
3. Align Hospitality and Heritage: To integrate the estate’s accommodation and leisure offering within the same narrative, ensuring non-shooting guests feel equally valued.
4. Build Digital Authority: To position the new website as the authoritative online source for all sporting information, availability, and booking enquiries.
5. Support Growth and Partnerships: To create a flexible, scalable platform that can evolve with the estate’s ambitions, including collaborative ventures and events.
These objectives reflect both practical outcomes and emotional resonance. This is about more than generating enquiries; it’s about cultivating belonging, loyalty, and pride. Bittescombe’s success will not be measured purely in bookings but in reputation, the sense that it has reclaimed its place as a name spoken with respect across the sporting community.
The vision also extends to presentation and tone. Every element, from typeface and colour palette to copywriting style, should feel measured, assured, and timeless. By achieving this coherence, Bittescombe will project stability, trust, and aspiration, qualities that are increasingly valued in the modern luxury market.
The result will be a brand presence that reflects the true essence of Bittescombe: an estate defined by its land, its people, and its unwavering commitment to excellence in all forms.
