Case Studies & Results

A sample of our results from digital marketing campaigns across Australia.

How We Doubled Direct Bookings In 6 Months

Oxford House, Sydney was heavily reliant on OTAs, with just 16% of bookings coming through direct channels. Demand wasn’t the problem, control and conversion were. 

Guests were finding the hotel, but booking through third parties and paying unnecessary commission. 

We implemented a focused direct-booking system using brand-protection Google Ads, Performance Max, Google Hotel Ads, and Meta retargeting. This was supported by tactical direct-only and seasonal offers, plus website optimisation to clearly communicate why booking direct was better. 

Within 6 months, direct bookings increased from 16% to 34%. Same hotel. Same demand. More control, fewer commissions, higher profit per booking.

How We Filled This Regional Conference & Events Centre

We successfully booked over 220 events for a conference and events centre located 45 minutes from the CBD by focusing on what mattered most: strong content, precise messaging, and highly targeted Google Ads campaigns. By developing compelling assets that showcased the venue’s capabilities and running tailored ad campaigns specifically aimed at corporate clients and event planners, we overcame the distance challenge and positioned the venue as a top-tier choice. This strategic approach drove consistent enquiries, strengthened brand visibility, and converted high-value bookings at scale.

$500,000+ Of Events Booked For This Outer Suburb Venue

We generated over $500,000 in event sales with a powerful 56x ROAS, booking 514 events for a venue located well outside the CBD—an area that had historically struggled to fill its spaces. By crafting high-intent content, refining the venue’s value proposition, and running tightly targeted Google Ads campaigns designed to reach corporates, community groups, and event planners, we were able to consistently attract qualified enquiries. This strategic, data-driven approach transformed an underperforming suburban venue into a fully booked, high-demand events destination.

How This Wedding Venue Filled Their Calendar Year-Round

Babalou, Kingscliff is a beachfront wedding venue competing in a crowded, seasonal market. The challenge wasn’t interest, it was generating consistent, high-quality enquiries year-round, especially during off-peak periods.

We ran Google Ads targeting brides actively searching for wedding venues, supported by Meta ads reaching engaged women and custom intent audiences. This was paired with tactical offers and custom wedding packages designed to drive off-peak bookings, plus a dedicated campaign to generate RSVPs for Babalou’s wedding showcase.

Over 12 months, the campaign generated 2,600 leads for events and filled their calendar with bookings.
