Obsessive learning is one of Triptease's core values. We strive to improve our product through continuous learning, and we empower our clients to do the same.

That's why our Direct Booking Coaches - regional experts in various areas, from digital marketing to website optimization - supports hotel teams with regular benchmarking reports and advice on their direct booking strategies.

We wanted to offer more hotels an opportunity to get actionable tips from our Coaches. That's why, ever since the Direct Booking Summit: EMEA 2018 in Amsterdam, we've offered one-on-one coaching sessions for attendees. Coaching sessions an exclusive opportunity to benchmark and optimize your hotel's direct booking strategies with our Coaches' industry-specific expertise and Triptease's data insights.



"During a coaching session, we take a deep dive into areas such as conversion and parity data, benchmarking performance, as well as your hotel's wider digital direct booking strategy and site evaluations." - Ben Dean, Triptease's Direct Booking Coach



"We have already started to action some of the points from our conversation," shared the General Manager of The Royal Victoria shortly after a session with Ben at the Direct Booking Summit: APAC in Singapore earlier this year.

"I really appreciated my coaching session. Following my conversation with a Direct Booking Coach, I spoke directly to my team about our current booking engine setup and how it could be improved," added a senior hotelier from Windsor Property Management Group Corporation Vietnam.

Due to high demand, we're bringing coaching sessions to the Direct Booking Summit: EMEA 2019 on 12-13 June in Paris. Book your one-to-one session here.
