Build A Profitable, Easier-To-Run Accommodation Business
Without Relying On OTAs or Working Longer Hours
Imagine welcoming guests who truly value what you offer - guests who stay longer, book direct and happily pay your prices.
With a proven system and clear support, you’ll attract more of the right guests, run your business with confidence and build a valuable long-term asset.
Hi, I'm Stephanie Thomas.
For over 15 years, I've helped owners of established B&Bs, hotels and self-catering accommodation businesses move from stress, shrinking profits and OTA dependence to consistent direct bookings, higher-spending guests and a business that truly works for them.
When I was running my own accommodation business, like many of my clients, I started with plenty of passion - but no clear strategy.
Endless one-night stays, pressure to drop prices and the drain of OTA commissions were my reality... until I created the Thrive Method,
a proven system that turned my struggling business into an award-winning, highly profitable one (even during a recession).
Today, I teach this approach inside my signature mentorship programme, Thrive, so you can skip the trial-and-error and grow your business with clarity, confidence and ease.

Best of all? I finally have time to focus on what matters - creating an amazing guest experience and enjoying the lifestyle we dreamed of when we started."
