Can Chief Digital Officers change the industry? How Reddit is replacing Tripadvisor in travel.

  • Martin Soler
  • 4 July 2024
🏡 Martin Soler, a fractional CMO and co-founder of the most read hotel newsletter in Europe, addresses the potential of Chief Digital Officers in driving the digital transformation needed in the hotel industry. Digital advertising faces a challenge with the potential 60% revenue decrease from Chrome users for publishers, due to the deprecation of third-party cookies by Google's Privacy Sandbox. Reddit is emerging as a key platform for travel discussions, possibly overtaking Tripadvisor. Hotels, once pioneers in technology, have fallen behind since the advent of smartphones. AI is set to revolutionize marketing, as seen with Coca-Cola's partnership with OpenAI since early 2023. The shift towards AI in marketing is imminent, urging hotel marketing teams to start experimenting with rapid iterations and personalized ads. The article suggests that the shift from Technology Officers to Digital Officers could be critical for enhancing guest experiences in hotels.

L'article discute de divers sujets, notamment l'introduction de "Revenue per Square Meter" comme nouvelle métrique dans l'industrie hôtelière, le projet de Barcelone d'interdire la location d'appartements aux touristes d'ici 2029, et l'influence des séries télévisées sur le tourisme. Il souligne aussi l'importance des sources d'inspiration personnelles et numériques pour les voyageurs, ainsi que les problèmes causés par la nouvelle législation DMA, qui nuit aux consommateurs, vendeurs, et risque de laisser l'Europe à la traîne technologiquement. L'article examine des thèmes tels que la proposition d'utiliser le "Revenue per Square Meter" dans l'hôtellerie, l'interdiction prévue des locations touristiques à Barcelone pour 2029, l'impact des séries TV sur le tourisme, et les défis de la législation DMA.
