The challenge

Heavy reliance on online travel agencies eating 20%+ in commissions.

Our approach
  1. 1

    Rebuilt the site around direct booking with seasonal offers.

  2. 2

    Ran geo-targeted campaigns to inbound travellers.

  3. 3

    Captured guest emails for re-marketing and reviews.

The outcome

Direct bookings more than doubled, clawing back margin from the OTAs.
