"The hotel accommodation industry is facing a perfect storm of digital disruption. New technologies are wreaking havoc on the status quo. You need to increase your direct bookings to avoid the price war and survive the fallout. Join me to learn how to avoid the booking aggregator fee trap and regain control of your customers.”
- Evan Cunningham-Dunlop, CEO of Living Online
Register now for this exclusive industry event. Hurry! Spaces are strictly limited; once they sell out it’s gone.
If you’re an owner, director, CEO, manager, or marketing manager at an independent hotel, resort, or accommodation provider, then this is an event you cannot afford to miss. You’ll walk away with the answers you need to rapidly book-out your rooms, substantially increase your bottom line, and lead your business into the future confidently and successfully.
You’ve undoubtedly been using websites like Booking.com, Expedia, or Agoda to increase your bookings. But while they may be helping you generate reservations, they’re also one of your biggest costs and one of your major competitors. What’s more their costs are increasing and sucking the life out of your profit margins. If left unchecked, then you’ll find yourself beholden to the OTA’s price increases with no other alternatives to turn to.
This is a fight for survival. To see what your future holds if you do nothing, then just ask any real estate agency how they feel. You’ll find that they feel like they’ve been taken hostage by the major property listing portals, but they now have no other choice but to comply! They’re struggling and they’re struggling hard. Don’t let this be you.
What’s more, Airbnb is hitting you while you’re down. The relentless rise of the sharing economy has taken massive market share and leaving accommodation providers all over the world hurting through lost market share. The sharing economy has driven many businesses to the wall (Uber vs Taxi anyone?), so unless you want to suffer this certain fate then it’s time to face the problem head on.
Protect your profits by regaining control. By using accommodation-specific digital marketing strategies to increase website traffic, improve user experience, and drive reservations, you’ll be able to channel prospective customers into booking directly with your business. This will allow you to increase bookings and avoid those hefty fees, without missing out on the visibility and opportunities that hotel search engines can bring. You need to do this this in order to survive. It’s that simple.
Join this exclusive 2-hour seminar so you can learn how to take back control of your business by increasing your direct bookings and reducing your reliance on third party websites. We’ll uncover the exact strategies used by the world’s most sophisticated hotel marketers and show you how to apply them to your business.

This event is strictly limited to 50 attendees and is sure to sell out fast. Don’t hesitate or it’s likely to be too late. Register for the event below to claim your seat.
The hotel and accommodation industry is facing an existential threat. With OTAs gaining tremendous market power and continuing increasing their prices, at the same time as Airbnb taking massive market share, the writing is on the wall if you do nothing.
We’ve already seen the impact market disruptors like Uber have had on taxis, UberEATS on restaurants, RealEstate.com.au on property, and Netflix on TV. The accommodation industry is similarly being upended by accommodation booking portals and the sharing economy.
Countless businesses and industries have been forced out by market disruption; don’t let yours become another causality of technology.
You can either be a passenger and watch it happen, or you can be a fighter.
Quite simply, if you want to drive more direct bookings and ensure the survival of your business, then this presentation provides tremendous value for money and is not to be missed.
