The trap

Most small hotels are renting their guests from booking sites.

Every booking through an OTA costs you 15 to 25 percent. Here is what that looks like for the average independent hotel in Thailand.

What we do

We help you get found — and book guests direct.

We do not hand you tools to manage yourself. We set everything up and run it for you, then send a simple report showing real direct bookings. Here is the full picture.

The foundation

Your own booking website

Most small hotels have no website, or one that cannot take bookings. We build you a fast, mobile-friendly website on your own domain — with a real booking button connected to your rooms. Every booking that comes through it is direct, and commission-free.

Then we make sure travelers actually find that website — in four places:

Website SEO

We optimize your website so it ranks on Google when people search for a hotel in your area — not buried on page five where nobody looks.

Google Maps SEO

We get your hotel showing up in Google Maps and the map results travelers see first when they search for places to stay nearby.

Local SEO

We help you win the searches that bring ready-to-book travelers — like “hotel near Patong Beach” or “hostel Khao San Road.”

Get mentioned by AI

Travelers now ask ChatGPT, Gemini, and Perplexity for hotel ideas. We set you up so these AI assistants recommend your property.

Guest automation

We turn one-time guests into repeat bookings — automatically.

Getting found is only half the job. Behind the scenes, we set up the messages and follow-ups that protect your reviews, sell extras, and bring guests back — all running on their own, without you lifting a finger.

The moment they book

Instant confirmation — with extras

The second a guest books on your website, they get a friendly confirmation email. We slip gentle upsells right inside it — “Add breakfast for ฿250 a day” or “Reserve airport pickup” — so you earn more from every booking.

Check-in day

“How is your stay going?”

On the day they arrive, we send a warm message asking if they need anything. It catches small problems early — while you can still fix them, before they ever turn into a public complaint.

After checkout

Smart review requests that protect your rating

Once their stay is over, we automatically ask for a review — but not blindly. We ask how their stay was first, then take two different paths:

★ Happy guest

We send them straight to Google to leave a public review. More 5-star reviews means higher ranking and more bookings.

Unhappy guest

We catch it privately. Instead of Google, we ask what went wrong and offer something to make it right — so a bad stay never becomes a public 1-star review.

On their birthday

A reason to come back

If we have a guest’s birthday, we send a special offer to celebrate — a quiet, personal nudge that brings past guests back for another stay.

Every month

Newsletters that keep you top of mind

We turn your past guests into a mailing list and send a simple monthly or weekly newsletter — local events, seasonal offers, news from the property. When they plan their next trip, you are the first place they think of. All at zero commission.

How it works

From signing up to real bookings — in 90 days.

Built for small properties. No bloated retainers. No 50-page strategy decks. Just the work that brings in direct bookings.

01

Free audit

We check your Google listing, find what is missing, and send you a one-page report. No call required.

02

Pick a plan

We build a custom plan that fits your hotel. No long contracts. You can start the same week.

03

Real direct bookings start within 90 days. We send a one-page report every month with the numbers.

Pricing

Every hotel is different. So is every quote.

We do not believe in one-size-fits-all packages. We look at your property, what you already have, and where you are losing the most money — then build a plan that fits and pays for itself in saved commission.

What shapes your quote

  • How many rooms or beds you have
  • What you already have — website, channel manager, listings
  • Which services you need, from Google Maps to full guest automation
  • How fast you want to grow your direct bookings
