THE REVENUE CHALLENGE
The Revenue Bottleneck: High OTA Commissions and Disconnected Inquiries
Tourism businesses balance capacity, seasonality and logistics. Yet two avoidable digital bottlenecks can reduce control over guest relationships and direct sales.
Third-Party Commissions & Guest Ownership
Online travel agencies and distributors can bring new customers, but fees and limited access to guest relationships can reduce the value of repeat business. A direct channel helps you serve returning guests and referrals without replacing your existing distribution partners.
Enquiries Lost Outside Working Hours
Guests often ask about schedules, pickup points, prices and equipment while staff are busy or off duty. Clear, automated answers and timely staff escalation help keep these enquiries moving towards a reservation.

OPERATIONS FAQ
Common Questions About Direct Booking and Automation
Do we have to stop using Viator or GetYourGuide?
No. Direct booking and third-party distribution can work together. OTAs may continue introducing new guests, while your own website serves direct enquiries, returning visitors and referrals.
Can automation handle complex group or private-boat bookings?
It can immediately answer approved, predictable questions and gather the required details. Special itineraries, private charters and personalised prices are handed to the appropriate member of your sales or operations team.
What do we need to set up WhatsApp Business automation?
You need access to an eligible business account and the required administrative permissions. Channel eligibility, approvals and integration scope are checked during onboarding in line with the provider’s policies.
