The cost of digital media continues to rise 10% – 15% while hotel marketing budgets remain relatively flat.

The Impact of COVID-19

The COVID-19 pandemic has greatly reduced travel demand and recovery will be slow. Hotels are paying their marketing agency flat fees no matter the level of direct revenue production.

Stop Paying Traditional Agency Fees

Remove the management cost and shift those precious marketing dollars to expand your

The Opportunity
