Focus on community building

If you can’t sell your rooms right now, focus on building a community or a fan base for your property. In this lockdown situation when everybody is glued to their phones and laptops, there can’t be a better timing to get maximum audience reach. Though getting rooms booked is of utmost priority still but now is the time to engage your audience, customers, fans through digital mediums and let them know about how unique, cozy and comfortable your property is.

Stick only to priority paid campaigns

Just because everybody is spending maximum time of their day on the internet doesn’t mean bombarding them with ads. Just stick to the campaigns which are necessary and important to complete as per the business need.

Adjust your hotel’s offerings and accommodate new consumer needs

Be flexible and creative with your offerings to attract maximum people to your hotel post lockdown. Do live chat to engage with your audience, show around your beautiful resort and various amenities up on offer.
