⢠Our hotel website / mobile app was designed to
rent hotel rooms to travellers. We offer the lowest
room price possible.
⢠We have observed that only 1% of the total
number of visitors booked a hotel room the last
3 months.
⢠How might we improve our website / mobile app so
that our hotel website / mobile apps becomes
attractive and 10% more visitors are converted to
booking a hotel room?
14. THINK: hypotheses
We believe that adding hotel room images on the
booking page
for Mary (= a site visitor)
will achieve more customer conversions
validated by a 10% increase in customers who
booking a hotel room.
