Goal
These independent properties with shared resources have a small team and multiple demands. Tahlia Spencer is responsible for managing Bella Noose Casa, and also owns marketing across the three hotels. “We put a lot of work into our websites to promote direct bookings,” she explains, “and while our budgets will never compete with the big third-party sites, we need to do what we can to direct people to our website.”
Solution
With hundreds of reservations and over $739K AUD in direct bookings revenue across the three properties, Sojern’s Pay on the Stay, multichannel marketing complements all the hard work of Spencer and her team. Best of all, Sojern has increased the properties’ ranking on Google and Bing Search Engine Results Pages—allowing this small group of three to compete on an even playing field against major third-party websites.
