The platforms are taking more...every year

Running costs are rising. Platform fees are growing. And the margin between a thriving property and a struggling one has never been narrower.

The good news: most owners are losing bookings in places they can’t see yet. That’s exactly where I start.

The Problem

The financial squeeze is real…and it’s getting tougher.

Running costs are rising on every front.  At the same time platforms are taking a cut of every booking, and they are growing more powerful and more expensive.

For independent owners, the margin between a thriving property and a struggling one has never been narrower.

Most owners are surprised by what we find.

I go through everything: your OTA listings, your website if you have one, your Google presence, your photos, your reviews, and how your copywriting reads to a stranger seeing it for the first time. I score what’s working, spot what’s missing, and tell you the truth — kindly but clearly.

I research what makes your corner of the world special — the local markets, the hidden walks, the best restaurants, the seasonal highlights — and I look at what comparable properties nearby are doing. This is where I start to find the areas to improve.

Then I tell you exactly what to do about it.

I map out your new site page by page, writing it around your property’s unique story, your personality as a host, and the world on your doorstep. Alongside it, you get a clear, prioritised marketing report — covering your Google presence, SEO, photography, direct booking strategy, and social media — ordered by what will make the biggest difference first. Everything you need to start bringing more guests straight to your door.
