Distribution and Travel Technology Services
When it comes to distribution, the hospitality industry plays in the big leagues. Booking.com, Expedia, Airbnb, and others spend billions of dollars each year to attract and acquire guests. And they pass those costs along to your property. Can you compete against these industry giants?
Definitely. That’s what we do
The point isn’t to get rid of OTAs. It’s to make sure you only pay them for guests you can’t reach on your own. And help you build a distribution, revenue management, and technology strategy that delivers results.
