FREE webinar: 16 March, 11:00am – 12:00pm

In this interactive workshop, Susan Briggs (Director of The Tourism Network) will help tourism businesses understand what makes Online Travel Agents (OTAs) so successful, and how you may be able to compete.

The Online Travel Agents seem to hold all the power and it can be frustrating for tourism businesses who feel they can’t compete. This lively marketing session will help you understand some of the techniques behind the OTA success, how they might be useful and what tourism businesses can do to generate more direct bookings.

In this one-hour workshop, you will learn:

  • Are the OTAs really as powerful as you think?
  • Overview of the ways OTAs work
  • How you can use some OTA techniques to generate more direct bookings
  • Alternatives to OTAs – what can you really do?

There will also be an opportunity to ask questions to our speaker at the end of the webinar.
