    3. Build a Price Guarantee Landing Page That Converts

    • Draft landing page content and benefit-driven body text
    • Include trust-building elements (badges, testimonials, refund policies)
    • Optimize for conversion

    Tools You Can Use

    • ChatGPT Custom GPT
    • Website builders (Webflow, WordPress, or your own dev team)

    Why It Matters to Property Managers

    A strong landing page increases direct bookings, builds guest trust, and lowers OTA costs.

    4. Need More Repeat Guests? Let AI Write Your Email Campaigns

    The Challenge

    Past guests are gold, but creating segmented, personalized email sequences that bring them back is time-consuming.

    How AI Solves It

    AI can generate guest re-engagement emails by:

    • Personalizing based on past stays, interests, or booking season
    • Recommending campaign timing (e.g., 3 months post-stay)
    • Highlighting new offers or early-bird discounts

    Tools You Can Use

    Why It Matters to Property Managers

    • Upload your onboarding docs and policies
    • Generate conversational audio guides
    • Deliver engaging, podcast-style content that new hires can listen to on the go
