When creating content for any of your digital assets, be it your Website, Facebook page, Instagram, YouTube etc you should target your content to who your guests are and what interests them.Your focus should not be on the product or service you offer but the needs of your guests. For example, does your business target families? if so this is an example of their profile.
Family profile
They travel with children or relatives, they may be visiting extended family or attending a special function, for example a wedding or special birthday. It could be a short break or extended holiday but the average length of stay is 4-5 nights.
They’re are looking for a particular type of accommodation that suits their needs. Their needs are likely to be slightly different than a couple or business traveller.
They need larger rooms with a kitchenette, accommodation to suit larger groups with facilities such as a sofa bed or interconnecting rooms. They might require an extra bed or baby cot or extra blankets and towels.
On site they’ll be looking for activities such as a pool, lawned area, sandpit or cubby house to occupy the little ones. They may even appreciate recommendations of fun places to visit provided in the room.
All this information can probably be found in a regular online listing under “facilities” but it doesn’t scream “I’m perfect, book me, I meet your specific needs”
So your “blogs” should be written to engage these guests by matching their needs, telling the story of how your business perfectly matches them.
Below is an example, it’s a made up business but you’ll get the idea.
MacIntosh Motor Inn perfectly suited for the family getaway!
