Some considerations for Hotels?
  • To capture this rapidly growing traveler group, mobile presence should be sites and social - imaginative and well integrated
    • A pleasure to look at + a pleasure to use
  • Consider a SmartPhone rate 
  • Gear offers to capture spontaneous, last moment travel
  • Review mobile sites that are widely used as models for UX and design
    • Responsive web design sites are NOT necessarily the mobile solution as they are too general purpose.
Hoteliers must adopt a #mobile mindset across all digital touchpoints - to include:
  • Inspiration
  • Promotions + Campaigns
  • Social Sharability
  • Seamless experience for user
  • Mobile offers - easy to book
  • Pre-stay, in destination services, post-stay communications
