OTA Hotel Management Services
The world of OTA’s (online travel agencies) is vast, ever-changing, and often confusing. Cayuga members are recognized as top experts in the field with decades of hands-on experience. Learning how to weigh the costs and benefits of marketing through these global distribution systems along with maintaining strong direct booking is essential. Learning to master distribution and channel management resources will build occupancy, rate, and competitive positioning.
Three specific strategies that Hoteliers should implement in order to pull guests back offline and back to booking with direct:
- Re-train our front desk staff or reservation agents to become more inquisitive when speaking with an incoming caller
- Advocate that the National and International Brands run a joint and entire industry campaign to educate consumers as to the benefits and pitfalls of booking with an OTA versus Booking Direct
- Continue to educate our customers who booked on an OTA, that upon their return visit to book direct. Inform them that they can get the best rate by calling direct and they also have more control over reservation changes and/or cancellations.
Cayuga’s hospitality consultants develop revenue management plans to help build customer loyalty that results in increased returns for owners and operators.
