Anyone been to Qatar? 10:10 - Feb 1 with 5572 viewsThe_Flashing_Smile

Doing some ads for their tourism, just wondered if anyone had any insights, what they love/don't love about the place etc.

Trust the process. Trust Phil.

Tough gig

No idea when I began here, was a very long time ago. Previously known as Spirit_of_81. Love cheese, hate the colour of it, this is why it requires some blue in it.

Never been, but have a good Qatari friend. Judging by him there a bit like Americans. Love cars, guns and bad hair cuts

I have noticed that all of their best sportmen and women were born in other countries. That is quite quirky.

Lots of ideas on the issues facing Dolly's mission to market Qatar as a destination for tourists are available here for all to see.

A bit like Dubai, but on a smaller scale. They love the mix of their old heritage (The Souks in Doha) and the new. The architecture of the West Bay area is cool, and looks amazing at night, and developments like The Pearl are their rivals to Dubai's Palm Jumeirah.

They love their flag (it's literally everywhere), the burgundy colour from the flag, and their royal family (who wouldn't if they removed all your credit card debts).

Outside of Doha there isn't too much, except sand and huge amounts of gas reserves.

They're finally investing in education for women, and the environment. They're bonkers about sport, in particular golf and tennis.

Hang on... you are writing ads for Qatar? and you don't have the first clue about the place?

Sounds like a solid foundation to build on. Cant wait to see the finished ads.

I suspect football might be a more realistic "pull" for the campaign Dolly is working on.

Come on, you can do better then that. You need to really sell the place. What about, come to Qatar we have more sand then Clacton and Hemsby combined? (We also have some strange tax laws, so why not try buying low taxed gold here an transporting it in to India for example? Its only a tax violation rather then a criminal offence.....). I know its probably not short an snappy enough but I feel it outlines the countries strong points

More migrant workers than population, many of whom are effectively held captive.
