01The challenge
Strong sales, but most of the profit margin is distributed among intermediaries
Bedinroom used to sell to Makkah and Madinah hotels through intermediaries and by phone. Sales were available, but a large share of booking proceeds went to the intermediary.
- Orders came in by phone, were paid by bank transfer, then confirmed by hand.
- There was no own channel for marketers, or for guests who come back to book.
02The solution with Jood systems and servers
One system that sells on every channel
Bedinroom chose five JoodBooking products that work together, under its own brand, in Arabic and English.
- A booking website with its own digital identityMakkah, Madinah and other Saudi hotels on bedinroom.com, in Arabic and English.
