Buuteeq – Online Marketing for Hotels

Looking to increase bookings at your boutique hotel? Buuteeq has got a solution. The online marketing application helps hotels increase occupancy rates and brand awareness by utilizing an integrated approach that includes a robust content management system, sophisticated business intelligence tools, and streamlined online reservations.

Start improving the financial outlook for your own hotel by signing up for a Buuteeq Starter account. Type in information about yourself and your property, and then start playing around in the Buuteeq “Back Office.” Add information about all the rooms you have available at a given time, including the room type and
maximum occupancy, and personally design the marketing materials that Buuteeq will use to promote your hotel on websites, mobile pages, and Facebook. Websites built with Buuteeq include a homepage, photos, room information, maps, and even custom articles that business owners can publish to further promote their properties. More importantly, each site includes a commission-free online reservation system that property owners can use to increase the number of bookings made directly through their sites.

In addition to all of the features described above, Buuteeq also lets property owners create their own limited-time promotions and discounted packages, and publish those deals on their websites in mere minutes. Buuteeq websites are search engine optimized, and they work well on smartphones and tablets.

Practical Uses:

  • Create a professional website for your hotel

  • Use Buuteeq’s business reports to find out how your property is doing financially
