Solve your direct booking challenges
The three key challenges that affect your direct booking performance are more common than you think. Here is how they may impact your hotel business.
1. The commission challenge
15-30% commission is paid to OTAs on every booking. This means that your direct bookings generate £403 per booking versus £249 through OTAs which is 60% more value going straight to your bottom line.
2. The reliability gap
50% of OTA bookings are cancelled versus just 18.2% for direct bookings. This affects operational challenges, revenue uncertainty and makes accurate forecasting nearly impossible.
3. The marketing competition
it is estimated that 70% of travellers visit your hotel website after seeing it on an OTA, but most book elsewhere. As such, you are competing against billion-pound OTA marketing budgets with fragmented tools.
