direct

Is it possible for non-branded properties, with smaller marketing budgets, to win the direct booking “war”? If so, how?

These are especially important as hotels look to optimize their booking channel and increase conversion rates, which have historically been very low

Tourists seek the most flexibility possible, and the direct bookings channels’ flexible terms, scope for changes, and instant refunds can win out

Material direct booking benefits can be something really special that also positively impacts the overall guest experience; these are often really effective

The more guests lost to booking abandonment, the more hotels must spend to attract new leads. This is alarming when we consider cost of customer acquisition

How automation can be used effectively via the hotel’s own website to drive dynamic content, personalized messaging and increased booking conversion

Your OTA profile convinces people to stop on your listing and/or find your website. It’s at the top of your marketing funnel, so it needs to look nice

As long as you allow for bookings on your website, you have an eCommerce platform and this provides an immense opportunity for revenue growth

Hoteliers now need to ask themselves what the actual cost is of acquiring reservations through a booking channel and how much of that demand is needed

Personalization and the dialogue we establish take on special relevance, and enable us to improve the user experience and increase web conversion
