Technology 4 Hotels Update 

Technology 4 Hotels Banner
Greetings!

 

Welcome to our Technology 4 Hotels Update. Well, this time it's great to be able to share the lowdown on a really clever web tool that will save you the tedious price checking of your competitors on booking web sites.

 

You can select competitors in your region and match your room types to them.You receive a daily email alert showing you which of your rates are too many percentage points higher or lower than those guys, and you can set those percentages. This makes it a breeze to adjust your rates more often. Log into the web site as often as you wish and watch rate trends in your area for 12 weeks ahead. Then catch those unusual periods of demand for which your rates need adjusting.

 

Travelers these days can easily check hotel rates online, get the best deal, and squeeze hotel margins. With this tool, rates are checked for you, minus the agony. It's a much easier way to get your prices right, so that you lower prices and increase sales when demand for your rooms is low, and raise prices and increase those margins when demand is high.

 

You can try it free for one month, then it is a very reasonable monthly charge.  And for our clients we have negotiated an even better deal. Simply use the Promotional Code TECH4HOTELS when you sign up at RatesAlarm.com and you will receive a 5% discount.  

 

So  why not give it a whirl?

 

Warmest Regards,

Brendon Granger

whatdoesitdoWhat is it Called and What does it Do? 

  

It's the RatesAlarm.com web tool from BenchMeasure. You get live feeds of your own competitors' rate information in virtually real time, and your own hotel's uncompetitive or under-yielding rate days are highlighted on the calendar.

 

The tool updates the rates three times a day.

 

You'll receive Email alerts once a day. You can also log in to the web site at any time to check how your rates are comparing. The dates when your prices are too high or low are highlighted in red and green. And with easy graphs you can compare price trends for you and your competitors 3 months ahead.

setup
What Set Ups do You Need to Do? 
  • You can select up to 5 competitor hotels for each of your Room Types. Select them from your region with the star ratings you wish to check. Then match your room types against the room types you wish to monitor.
  • You can also select up to 5 competitor hotels for your Best Rates.
  • Enter the upper and lower trigger levels for setting the alerts. So you might want to be alerted when your Standard Room type is at least 5% lower and 10% higher than your competitors. So you would enter 5% and 10% as the trigger levels.
