Get ready for some fast marketing in a flash!

Shoot a guest testimonial video

Guest review videos are easy to shoot and post – and they are an effective way to introduce prospective guests to everything your boutique hotel has to offer. Post a sign at your Check Out desk asking guests if they would be willing to take ten minutes to give their honest opinion of their experience at your hotel. Offer a token of your appreciation for their time, such as a free dessert, snack or drink.

You don’t need an elaborate set for your videos, just a quiet place with a solid backdrop that won’t clash with most guests’ apparel. Have a short list of four or five questions ready to ask guests about their experience. Once you shoot each video, add some keywords in the Alt tags, include a link to your website, and post on your hotel’s YouTube channel. Once you have completed a few of these guest video testimonials, you should be able to complete the entire process within your 30-minute window.

Send out a hotel email newsletter

Can you really create an attractive email newsletter for your boutique hotel in under half an hour?  No problem! Simply bundle together two or three of your similarly themed blogs, add an intro and an attractive picture or two, and your email newsletter is almost ready to go.

If your email subscriber list is segmented according to demographics (couples, families, business travelers) you can easily include a discounted offer relevant to each subscriber group.  Offer coupons for a weekend getaway to your couples, a free weekend day with three weekday reservations, and special vacation packages for family travelers.  Proof for errors and press send. Presto! You have a great looking hotel email newsletter ready in 30 minutes or less.

Develop your hotel content marketing strategy

Here’s a way to develop a powerful hotel marketing strategy in a hurry – just repurpose your best blogs into new, interesting content. If you have a long-running hotel blog, you don’t have to invest a lot of time developing new content to expand your hotel marketing strategies. You already have a rich library of content just waiting to be reborn in a new format!

You can quickly repurpose your best blogs into various other content formats. A blog on packing tips makes a great checklist; your feature on local attractions is a podcast just waiting to happen. When you turn your hotel blogs into podcasts, videos, slideshares, and other formats, you can introduce entirely new demographics to what your hotel has offer. Since you are just reformatting information you already have, creating new, interesting content to power your hotel internet marketing efforts in half an hour or less is a breeze!
