+ Hey {FirstName} — stayed at a boutique hotel nearby in {city_name} last month. Love the aesthetic of {hotel_name}. Noticed your website directs guests to an external Booking.com engine, surrendering 18% commission on every weekend stay. We built a 1-click Apple Pay booking widget that converts 22% more direct reservations. Can I send a 60-second screen test on your site?
