Tenaya Lodge Sequoia Mailer

Packaging Design | Marketing | B2B

At Tenaya Lodge, a large portion of their guests are in-fact businesses that escape for corporate retreats and team-building excursions. Being very close to Yosemite National Park and the John Muir forest of giant sequoias is a pretty big draw. In order to drum up some new business in the Groups sector, we decided a personalized mailer would help the efforts.

The start of something BIG.


Our main goal with this campaign was for the Tenaya sales team to build a new relationship with potential clients that had not visited the Sierra region before. In my research, I found that the forest of giant sequoias is such a large draw for this specific section of Yosemite. So I began to sketch some ideas. The final product was a beautifully symbolic gift of a baby sequoia sapling. The symbol of a new life and a new relationship that needed attention, care  and patience. The mailing was highly successful with numerous bookings directly attributed to the initial list that these gifts were sent to.

This campaign won an ADDY Silver at the 2020 
Ad Club of Buffalo awards show.
