Glampsource North Hatley boosts revenue with ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½

“Moving to ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½ has saved us so much time – we reduced workload on OTA management by 300%. Thanks to automation, our back office has more time to plan and strategize and our front-facing team can provide better service to guests.†

From pen and paper to digital multiple services 

 

Challenge

Prior to joining ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½, the founders of Glampsource North Hatley managed their operations manually, with everything handwritten or communicated via phones. With a goal to increase revenue through offering multiple services, moving to the cloud was vital. 

 

Solution

ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½ is cloud-native and automates countless daily tasks, meaning huge time savings for staff. It’s also easy to sell multiple space types and services to guests, all through ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½, which helps the property attract different types of customers. For Glampsource, a brand that aspires to be at the forefront of hospitality innovation, a PMS like ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½ provided a platform that supports their goals for growth, efficiency, and a superior guest experience. 

 

Result

• 35% growth in business 
• Day use seamlessly managed through ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½ Operations

More revenue through booking engine upsells 

 

Challenge

Direct bookings are more valuable for business, so the Glampsource North Hatley team wanted a booking engine that would maximize revenue. 

 

Solution

ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½ Booking Engine provides a seamless user experience, allowing guests to choose between numerous lodging options. Add-ons can be selected with a single click, multiple rates (e.g. non-refundable) can be uploaded per accommodation type, and pre-payments are taken at the final step. 

 

Result

• Two thirds of bookings are made direct  
• One in five booking engine reservations purchase upgrades 
• CA$40 average added value per booking through booking engine upsells 
• 10% higher average booking value through booking engine compared to channel managers 

Online check-in drives upsells and time saving 

 

Challenge

If guests are required to visit a central reception to check-in on arrival, the process can cause long lines.  

 

Solution

ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½ Online Check-in saves time for onsite staff and allows guests to choose their own arrival path. It’s also an opportunity to capture true guest email addresses who have booked through a third party, and to increase the booking value by upselling add-ons. The most popular upsells at Glampsource North Hatley are pet fees, taxis and parking. 

 

Result

• One in three guests check in online  
• CA$27 average upsell per reservation through online check-in 
• Guests are more than twice as likely to complete online check-in if they booked direct
