COVERLIST
COVERLIST packages a hospitality booking-site offer into a concise commercial site with a fictional showcase and lead-capture journey.
The problem
Independent hospitality businesses often need a cleaner direct-booking presence without turning the website into a large custom software project.
How I approached it
- 01Productize the service around a fixed launch price and monthly operating fee.
- 02Use a clearly fictional showcase to demonstrate the intended booking experience without pretending it is a live venue.
- 03Keep the commercial page focused on the offer, proof-of-concept experience and lead capture.
- 04Avoid claiming live payment or messaging infrastructure where it is not present.
