How content-rich marketing grew a family hotel's reservations 425%
The Olympia Lodge — a family-owned hotel near the Pacific in Pacific Grove, California — needed more guests without a big ad budget. A content-rich website, SEO, social, and email program grew monthly reservations by 425%.
The challenge
Like many independent hotels, the Lodge faced soft travel demand and increasingly sophisticated online travelers — most of whom book on their phones and abandon sites that aren't mobile-friendly. They needed visibility and credibility, on a budget.
What we did
We redesigned and built a mobile-friendly WordPress site, integrated it with their booking tool via API, and ran a content-rich program across SEO, social, and email — navigation, copy, and imagery all engineered to guide visitors toward booking, with analytics to keep refining.
The result
