Methodology

What this assumes

  • Lift defaults are conservative. Marriott's portfolio rollout reported a 67% engagement lift; we use 5 pp as the booking-share recovery so the math under-promises.
  • Margin delta of 9 percentage points reflects industry consensus on the direct-vs-OTA profit gap, before resort-fee and rate-parity drag.
  • Hosting is included for Year 1; the 3-year net subtracts only Years 2-3.
  • OTA share defaults to 48% (independent midpoint). Branded properties typically run 25-35%; deep-OTA leisure independents can sit above 60%.
  • Numbers are estimates for sizing the opportunity, not a substitute for a quote. Send us the actual scope and we'll return a real one.
