extensive marketing campaign
Explanation:
I have no idea what the context is, but if it's a visitor attraction I don't think "recruitment" is an appropriate translation - they're "recruiting" new visitors. "Werven" in this context means the same as "acquisitie" here:

Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  Tina Vonhof: 'Werven' means simply 'attract' new visitors I would say, which of course would increase business and ultimately result in recruitment of personnel.

agree  Sindy Cremer: See: http://www.provant.be/binaries/strategisch plan SL definitie... for examples of 'werven' and 'werfbrochure'. Indeed does not refer to 'recruitment' here.
