How Does It Work?

Around the Corner is about building trust. More often than not, arriving travelers lack guidance, confidence and awareness of the local area. In most cases, they are keen to discover – they just need a good recommendation!

From the travelers point of view, Around The Corner is simple:

1. Travelers arrive

Most travelers arrive at their hotel usually with an interest in the local area, but without any idea or confidence in what they might try.

2. Travelers see recommendations

The video guide is displayed prominently in the hotel at check-in, in other common areas such as the restaurant, and also as an in-room channel. The video directs guests to the free guidebook, which is available at the front desk and in room.

The whole process gives travelers a warm welcome, a tantalizing taste of what’s on offer, and a sense of excitement and exploration.

Inclusion in our guide is essentially an endorsement for your business. Studies have shown that people are most likely to trust a recommendation if it comes from someone like them. Travelers see who is makes the recommendations, so this adds a much higher level of trust and relevance than conventional advertising, guidebooks or other recommendation systems.

3. Travelers find you

The video guide makes reference to a free pocket guide, which reinforces the testimonials, gives travelers a sense of confidence in the local area, and provides directions to you.
