5. Identify pinch points in the booking process and the actual guest behavior. Each step of
the funnel helps answer important performance questions such as:
Is the site engaging? Is online
marketing effective?
Are content and calls to action
compelling?
Are rooms available for dates selected?
Are rates, inclusions and policies agreeable to
the guest?
Are guest intent transactional or informational?
Ready to buy or just looking for accommodation
options?
Are guests comfortable, confident and secure providing
credit card information in the booking engine?
How effective is the entire booking process in achieving
this conversion goal?

6. Determine drop-off points (and failure points) for intervention and process
improvement.
Low? Probably needs online marketing
and SEO
Low? Probably needs to improve content,
usability or site structure.
Low? Probably need to ask hotelier to allocate
more rooms or improve this page in terms of
branding consistency with HW/AW.
Low? Probably need to check rates, inclusions and
policies with OTAs. Or improve this page in terms of
copy and presentation of room types, etc.
Low? Probably need to improve how rates, taxes,
surcharges, etc. are presented and communicated. Or a
need to create a sense of urgency so that guests will not let
go of that reservation?
Low? Probably need to emphasize how important security and
privacy of information that guests provide are to
DirectWithHotels or the hotel partner.
Low? Probably need to look at the possible failure points of the
earlier steps.
