Salt Water Vacations

The Challenge

As Salt Water Vacations expanded, they faced significant digital challenges. They needed a modern, user-friendly website that could seamlessly connect to their existing property management software, but also support a future software migration. In addition, a robust content management system was required to keep on top of their grouped rental complexes and to supplement property data flowing from their PMS.

Along with a new website, Salt Water Vacations needed a comprehensive digital marketing strategy to increase their online presence, drive bookings and become more visible to potential new homeowners.

The Solution

Website Development

We designed and developed a new, visually appealing website tailored to Salt Water Vacations' needs. Built upon our proven direct-booking platform, this new website integrated effortlessly with their existing property management software, ensuring real-time updates and synchronization. And, when they migrated to new software, we helped them make the transition with minimal effort.

Our team then trained Salt Water's staff on how to efficiently use our Content Management System to keep their website up-to-date, manage additional property data, their subscribers, add specials, and more -- all from our intuitive dashboard.

And finally, we integrated their website and conversion path with Google Analytics, utilizing e-commerce tracking and custom events/goals so that they could have a complete picture of user and booking patterns.

Digital Marketing Services

In addition to the website, we provided a suite of ongoing digital marketing services designed to enhance Salt Water Vacations' online presence and engagement. Monthly e-mail campaigns are developed to nurture leads and keep past guests informed about new listings and special offers. A comprehensive SEO strategy was implemented and worked on each month to improve search engine rankings and to drive organic traffic. Regular blog posts and high-quality content is created on the regular to engage potential customers and showcase unique features of their properties. And ongoing consultation helps fine-tune marketing efforts and adapt to emerging trends in the vacation rental industry.
