Bloomsbury Online Brochure Potential guests regularly enquired about the difference between superior and standard double rooms. The proprietors spent hours explaining the decor and size of each room before securing a booking. As the guest house only has 7 rooms, it was possible to “merchandise” each room by creating an online brochure with detailed images of each room. I created the interactive pdf file using InDesign then uploaded it to the Issuu online magazine platform. The publication could be shared with potential guests and embedded across social media and the hotel website. The analytic tools behind the Issuu platform give a great insight into where potential guests are from. This has been valuable when planning facebook campaigns. Since the publication was uploaded guests now request specific rooms and bookings of the standard rooms has also increased. Guests can now see that the standard rooms are just as beautifully decorated but are simply smaller.
