The big picture
How we did it
Myalla is a luxury farm stay in the Capertee Valley, a genuinely beautiful property with strong guest appeal and a real point of difference. The problem wasn't the product. There was no digital infrastructure in place to convert interest into bookings. People couldn't find it, and when they did, there was no clear path to reserve apart from AirBnb and Booking.com.
The brief
Barefoot built the entire marketing funnel from the ground up, not just the advertising, but the complete digital ecosystem behind it.
→ The website was upgraded and the booking system set up from scratch, giving guests a seamless, frictionless path from discovery to reservation.
→ The positioning was reframed entirely. Rather than presenting Myalla as accommodation, we built campaigns around what guests were actually buying, space, silence, luxury, nature and a genuinely memorable country experience.
→ Creative was built around the property's strongest emotional hooks: open fires, clear skies, the beauty of the Capertee Valley, privacy and the feeling of being completely removed from the noise.
→ Paid advertising and campaign strategy were layered on top of this foundation, targeting couples, families and groups actively looking for a premium regional escape, not just a place to stay.
→ Ongoing performance optimisation ensured the campaign improved continuously across the four-month period.
The work
The outcome
→ More than 150 genuine enquiries generated in four months.
→ A complete digital foundation built from nothing, website, booking system and paid acquisition all live simultaneously.
→ Myalla repositioned from invisible to in-demand.
