DIGITAL MARKETING SERVICES FOR PERTH HOTELS

Hoteliers can hire THE best online hotel marketer

Hotel marketing is about revPAR, not about how much hotels invest. You have a hotel digital marketing budget, even if you don’t know it.

80+ per cent of the online travel agency (OTA) industry is owned by two big hotel marketing giants: Booking Holdings (who own Booking.com, Kayak, Agoda etc ) and Expedia (Hotels.com, Orbitz and Travelocity). They have put hoteliers at their mercy, swapping marketing reach for high commission fees. There is an alternative hotel marketing strategy for your hotel business.

Commissions hotels pay to online travel agents (OTAs) are an indirect marketing cost to hotels. OTAs spend on their digital marketing to provide your bookings, you repay them in commissions, plus their profit margin.

BENEFITS OF DIRECT DIGITAL HOTEL MARKETING

Alternative to commissions hotels pay to OTAs is investing in digital marketing your own hotel website. Benefits include:

  • reinforces your hotel brand marketing, not the OTA’s
  • When new and repeat guests book via your website, you’re building loyalty. You won’t have to spend every year for each client. Guests know your hotel website and your contact/booking information. You know their contact information.

The scenario of diverting commissions of 10 rooms from OTAs to your own hotel marketing:

OTAs sell your rooms @ $100 per night. Their commission is $20.
Your hotel booking engine only takes $4 saving you $16. If you sold these 10 rooms directly from your own hotel site, you’d save $16 per room per day. To ensure guests book directly via your site, discount rooms $1.

Plough commission saving back into your own hotel marketing.

$15 x 10 rooms x 365 days of the year. Your marketing budget ploughed back into your own site’s hotel marketing for brand marketing and loyalty is $46,500 pa invested in your hotel marketing with extra benefits bullet pointed above.
