The Problem We Solve

If guests cannot see your offers at the right time, they will book elsewhere.

Many African hotels rely on basic tools and generic email blasts that quietly cost them money:

  • Irregular sending and tired templates that erode engagement

  • The same message for every guest, no matter their history or preferences

  • Unclear consent records and lists that are not fully compliant

  • Teams with no time to plan, design or analyse

  • Fragmented systems and no single data layer to personalise or prove ROI

| The result shows up in profit: lost direct bookings, weak repeat business, flat review scores and rising pressure from owners.

SOPAGO Newsletter Management is a fully managed, end to end program. We use the SOPAGO CDP to design, send and optimise every campaign, so your marketing finally matches the quality of your hospitality.

Features That Deliver Commercial Outcomes

Why A CDP Powered Approach Matters

The SOPAGO CDP is the data engine behind your email program. It unifies guest profiles, stay history, preferences and consent across properties and channels.

This enables you to:

  • Clean up records and respect consent with built in identity resolution

  • Target the right guest with the right offer at property or brand level

  • Attribute revenue properly, so you know which campaigns move the numbers

You move from sending “newsletters” to running a measurable lifecycle marketing program.
