What moved, what we changed, what is next.
The system

One subscription. Four levers. Built for surf businesses.

We run the same proven stack for every camp. No bespoke. No hourly nonsense. Same playbook, applied to your lineup.

01

Google Ads

Branded, non-branded, Performance Max for booking pages, retargeting. We bid on the surfer typing "Costa Rica beginner surf camp" at 11pm, not the one already on your site.

02

Meta Ads

Facebook and Instagram. Lookalikes built off your booking list. Video-first creative because surfers scroll past photos. Daily spend cap so you sleep.

03

SEO

Two long-form pieces a month per spot or region. Technical fixes. Internal linking into the 9,000+ spot pages already on SurfTrips. We are the surf authority site. You get to ride that.

04

AI-search visibility

When a surfer asks ChatGPT "best surf camp in Mentawais for intermediate", we make sure your camp is in the answer. Schema rollouts, comparison pages, citable content.

Value calculator

Risk reversal

The Triple Promise.

Three layers stacked. You take zero downside risk. We take all the delivery risk.

01

30-day money-back.

If you do not love how we work in your first 30 days, full refund. No questions, no forms.

02

Leading-indicator credit.

If impressions, clicks, or inquiries have not moved by month 3, month 4 is on us.

03

Pause anytime.

Cancel or pause with 30 days notice after the first month. No tricky exit clauses. Pick it up again later if you want.

The maths

Why the numbers work.

$2,000
Average week-long booking value, mid-tier camp
21bookings/yr
Break-even on Pro. Roughly one extra booking every two to three weeks.
3-6x
Typical revenue lift vs subscription cost, first six months
Pro costs $4,500 a month. One extra week-long booking every fortnight covers it. The Triple Promise covers you if leading indicators do not move.
Track record

Built on real accounts.

The 4-lever playbook is proven on boutique hospitality accounts since 2024. Surf-vertical references published once first quarter clears delivery.

What works

Same four levers, every camp.

Google Ads, Meta Ads, SEO, AI-search visibility. Run together they compound. We have run paid and organic on hospitality accounts for over a year. The mechanics translate. The wave-vocabulary is what we are dialling in with the surf vertical.

Why direct

Direct guests come back. Channel guests rarely do.

Year one is the booking lift. Year two is the moat. Direct guests reorder, refer, and forgive minor hiccups. Channel guests forget your name. Most agencies sell year one. We build for year two compounding.

FAQ

Common questions.

How is Wavefront different to a marketing agency?
Fixed scope per tier, run via a dashboard, monthly Loom report instead of standing calls. You buy results, not hours.
Who is Wavefront for?

Is there a guarantee?
