Where it started

A brand-new resort with no audience at all. We started the day it opened, built the first following over the winter, and paused over the summer when the resort did.

What we filmed

Filmed as guests, when the light was right.

When posting started again, the footage was already there: the resort in its first winter, filmed by the two of us as guests. We cut it into short reels with a first line people search for.

Lumo Resort

What changed

The results, and what each number means.

The channel had been quiet for months, apart from the odd collaboration. We started posting again on 15 August 2026. In the first month: 5.9M views across Instagram, TikTok and Facebook, and more than 60,000 € in bookings the resort traced back to the channel by asking every guest who booked where they found them. Growth model: a lower monthly fee plus a share of the bookings we bring.

60,000 €+
in bookings traced to the channel

Gross booking value at Lumo Resort in one month, and a little over the figure shown. The resort asks every guest who books where they found them, so these bookings were counted one by one, not estimated
