Why It Works

Guests are relaxed, curious, and open to new experiences during their stay. Instead of being “just an ad,” your brand becomes part of their trip—something they use, enjoy, and remember.

Think:

• A pamphlet of your menu or ad print on the dining table.

• A welcome kit with your product.

• A voucher card on the nightstand.

• Drinks, snacks, or toiletries product placements in AirBnBs.
