The problemWhere it started

White Sail Split was running a premium charter business through WhatsApp and phone calls. Every booking required two or three back-and-forth messages, the team was losing late-evening leads from time-zones they couldn't answer in real-time, and there was no central place a guest could see the routes, the boats, and the price before reaching out.

ApproachWhat we did

  1. 1

    Built a calendar-aware availability check so guests see open dates per tour before they ask.

  2. 2

    Designed a structured inquiry flow (date, tour, group size, contact) that lands pre-qualified leads in the inbox.

  3. 3

    Custom admin panel so the owner manages tours, prices, and leads without a developer.

  4. 4

    SEO + schema for 'Split boat tour' queries. Direct inquiries replace OTA fees.
