How we restructured search architecture and geo-targeting to heavily outperform competitor benchmarks and drive efficient bookings.
Operating in the fiercely competitive online travel sector, Qantas Hotels faced challenges associated with low margins, numerous low-cost competitors, and constant shifts in customer preferences.
Qantas Hotels needed a digital marketing strategy to successfully establish strong preference alongside highly effective customer acquisition in a dynamic market.

Recognising the dynamic nature of the market, DMG prioritised agility, allowing Qantas Hotels to quickly adapt to changing variables and capitalise on market opportunities while meeting aggressive ROI and volume targets.
Attention to detail was crucial. Digital Minds ensured accuracy in communication, considering factors such as commission rates, prices, seasonal fluctuations, promotions, and channel variations to maintain consistency and customer satisfaction.
