AI SDR & Lead Conversion Built for Boutique Hotels

{"faqs":[{"answer":"Direct bookings start with faster follow-up and demand you own. Worqd brings travelers in through paid ads, SEO, and local SEO, then our AI SDR and AI voice agents answer, qualify, and book every inquiry in under 60 seconds — 24/7. Because direct bookings also cancel at roughly half the rate of OTA bookings, every inquiry you capture directly protects your revenue.","question":"How can a boutique hotel increase direct bookings instead of relying on OTAs?"},{"answer":"Our AI SDR and AI voice agents respond in under 60 seconds, any hour, including weekends. They qualify the inquiry, book it using your calendar and your rules, and hand the call to a real person with full context whenever a human touch is needed. Late-night browsers become confirmed stays instead of morning regrets.","question":"What happens to guest inquiries that come in after our front desk closes?"},{"answer":"No. Worqd works with your existing CRM — no platform switch required. Pipeline recovery reactivates the contacts already in your system, and our back-office workflows connect with your existing CRM, helpdesk, phone, and document tools.","question":"Do we have to replace our existing CRM or property management setup?"},{"answer":"We start by finding the bottleneck, then build the plan and launch quickly — paid campaigns and outreach can start producing inquiries within days of launch, while SEO compounds over months. From there we test what matters, drop what doesn't, and scale what works.","question":"How quickly can we see results after signing with Worqd?"},{"answer":"Integrated beats fragmented. Instead of separate vendors for ads, creative, and follow-up, one partner runs the whole path from first click to booked call. Our AI SDRs deliver a claimed 4–7x conversion lift over unmanaged follow-up at 70–lower cost per qualified conversation versus a traditional SDR team — and we're priced against the results that matter to you, not the hours we log.","question":"How is Worqd different from hiring an SDR team or running ads through an agency?"}],"steps":[{"step":"1","title":"Find the Bottleneck","gradient":"from-orange-500 to-red-500","description":"We look at your buyer, offer, channels, response process, and data to find where growth is stuck — before touching anything."},{"step":"2","title":"Build the Plan and Launch Fast","gradient":"from-yellow-500 to-orange-500","description":"We set priority channels and the lead-handling path, then campaigns, creative, outreach, and instant response go into motion — inquiries can start arriving within days."},{"step":"3","title":"Learn, Improve, and Scale","gradient":"from-green-500 to-emerald-500","description":"We observe lead quality, test what matters, drop what doesn't, then widen winning channels and recover missed demand — growing without adding busywork."}],"ctaText":"Book a Growth Call — See How Worqd Fills Your Rooms Direct","eyebrow":"AI SDR for Hotels","benefits":[{"icon":"Zap","title":"Every Inquiry Answered in Under 60 Seconds","gradient":"from-emerald-500 to-teal-500","description":"Our AI SDR answers, qualifies, and books the moment interest arrives — in under 60 seconds, 24/7 including after-hours and weekends.

Online booking accounted for the largest market revenue share in 2024, so every missed reply is a lost direct booking — the guest has either booked a competitor or fallen back to an OTA.
