What SiteSearch does

SiteSearch LLC is a privately held, full-service travel agency founded in 2001 by Elizabeth Weimer that specializes in event housing solutions for the U.S. youth sports tourism market. Headquartered in Louisville, Kentucky with satellite offices in Indianapolis and Nashville, the company operates across the Midwest and Southeast with documented reach into the West Coast, and serves event organizers, sports facilities, youth sports teams and clubs, college athletics programs, convention and visitors bureaus, and corporate and association meeting planners. The company facilitates approximately 450 event room blocks and over 200,000 room reservations annually through three core service lines: Team Travel, Tournament Housing, and Sports Facilities Housing, and is supported by a team of approximately 20 professionals organized across event management, customer experience, and accounting functions.

The company's technology consists of a custom event housing management and booking platform purpose-built for sports team travel. The platform features customized booking sites per event, team-specific booking links distributed by coaches and managers directly to parents and participants, monitoring dashboards with reminder functionality, and dedicated reporting tools for facility operators including quarterly and year-end economic impact reports. The system supports long-range room block planning with the ability to secure accommodations 3-5 years in advance of events, integrates with all major hotel brands without exclusivity restrictions, and operates without booking minimums. Tournament cancellation protection is included as part of the standard service offering.

SiteSearch generates revenue through a transaction-fee and rebate-commission model in which the company collects hotel rebates averaging $12-$15 per room night, retaining a portion as commission and passing the balance to event organizers as an incentive. Services to event organizers are provided at no direct cost, with revenue derived from hotel partnerships and per-reservation transaction fees. Distribution is executed through dedicated Travel Liaisons conducting direct B2B sales, supported by content marketing, industry association engagement (Meeting Professionals International), and client referrals, with white-label booking sites enabling B2B2C distribution to end consumers (families and participants).

Revenue model

1. Transaction Fee Model: SiteSearch generates revenue based on the number of room nights booked. There is a small transaction fee associated with each reservation charged to the client at the time of their reservation. The company is incentivized to maximize room nights to benefit both the company and client organizations.
2. Hotel Rebate Commission: The company collects rebate dollars from hotels ($12-$15 per room night on average) and passes a portion to clients as an incentive. SiteSearch retains a portion as their commission for facilitating the bookings.
3. Event Housing Services: Free services to event organizers - revenue is generated from hotel partnerships rather than direct charges to clients. The company serves as an intermediary between hotels (who pay for room block fills) and event organizers (who receive rebates).
