Hotel Tybee’s advocates drive incredibly warm traffic and high conversion for pennies on the dollar.
Brett L. Loehr, CHA and General Manager to Hotel Tybee had this to say about the platform:
“Today’s reality is that it’s more expensive and competitive to earn guests. Add to that other investments we’ve made in our hotel following three hurricanes just this year, and the importance of growing profits without sacrificing hospitality for our guests comes even more into focus.
We’ve got a strong marketing team who together with Flip.to have done both. For one thing, we’re getting in front of interested travelers in the best way—our existing guests—and the numbers tell the story for what follows.”
Advocacy is a potent marketing channel that properties like Hotel Tybee have unlocked. With trust built in, quality of the audience is a natural lead into great performance.
Stacia Miele, Online Marketing Director echoed Brett’s sentiment.
“Hotel digital marketing isn’t a matter of doing one thing really well—it’s doing a lot of things really well that come together into a strategy that works for your property. Flip.to has been a great add to our stack, with the value of this new marketing channel going beyond lower cost-of-acquisition.”
“All in all—we’ve been huge fans since the beginning,” Brett went on to add.
