Mistake No-48: Overdependence on OTAs — The Silent Hotel Killer
🎙️ Welcome to the Hotel Growth Podcast
Hosted by Mike and Karen
In today’s episode, Mike and Karen explore a game-changing insight from the mind of Arun Kumar Raman, India’s leading Hotel Growth Coach with 25+ years of hands-on hospitality experience.
Inspired by Mistake #48 from Arun’s Hotel Growth Hub Blog, this episode is all about a dangerous trap many hotel owners fall into — Overdependence on OTAs.
When 70-90% of your bookings come from Online Travel Agencies, you’re not running your hotel — the OTAs are. You lose control, pay heavy commissions, and struggle to build your own loyal guest base. Worst of all, you become invisible without their algorithm.
Mike and Karen discuss Arun’s proven roadmap to escape this cycle — how you can build direct booking systems, own your guest relationship, and turn your website and digital tools into powerful sales machines.
🎧 Tune in and discover how to take back control of your business and stop letting OTAs eat your profits!
