Karina Nakamura

• As a Partner Success Associate, I play a pivotal role in enhancing the performance of our accommodation partners on the Expedia platform. My primary responsibility involves daily outreach to a diverse portfolio of hotel partners, where I focus on optimizing their rate and availability competitiveness to drive customer conversions. By securing additional lodging rates and availability during peak demand periods, I ensure that we meet our customers’ urgent needs effectively.
• In addition to re-engaging dormant partners by reinforcing core fundamentals, I actively analyze market data to identify and address issues that may hinder competitiveness. By shopping our sites as a traveler would, I uncover insights that automated tools might miss, allowing me to provide tailored recommendations that enhance partner performance.
• My analytical skills enable me to develop personalized insights that not only win business but also strengthen our partnerships for long-term success.
