MASCH SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS

What do we mean by "Predictive Live Monitoring" for tourism destinations?

Comprehensive and high-quality data are the basis for successful digitalization in tourism.

Due to the digital transformation in tourism, the areas of responsibility of destination management organizations (DMOs) are expanding to include additional tasks. Regional service providers from the hotel and para-hotel industry increasingly expect holistic support from tourism organizations for their sales and marketing processes.

In the following interview, we discuss with Marc Ungerer, Managing Director of Jungfrau Region Tourismus AG, and Dr. Bartholomäus Wissmath of whoch2 GmbH how a comprehensive database for forward-looking data management of the Jungfrau Region is created from the networking of regional booking platform, digital registration and digital guest card.

Customer Service and Marketing Team of MASCH Software Solutions have been working intensively with our pilot hotels on the product launch of the V.I.G.-CLOUD during the last weeks!

Now we are ready! Your guests can collect loyalty points and of course redeem them!

We have received feedback from many customers from the hotel industry and tourism, who already know MASCH and the commitment of MASCH to its tourism partners, that the introduction of an affordable guest loyalty program is considered extremely interesting and desirable for the medium-sized hotel industry.

That's why we're going live with our intrduction campaign for hotels wordlwide strating from 01.07.2023.

MORE GUEST LOYALTY THROUGH DIGITAL SERVICES

Improve your success through improved guest loyalty and an individual bonus program. Turn one-time guests into returning friends of your business.

The experience of the COVID-19 pandemic has shown us all that the steady (and seemingly neverending) flow of international one-time visitors has been rapidly interrupted over the past 2 years.

Hotel businesses that have also relied on returning and loyal guests in the past have been navigated their business better, especially during the second phase of the pandemic. However, returning guests are also getting older and there is then a rapid shortage of guests from the younger generation.

Attracting new guests was much easier in the past than it is TODAY, but converting guests into regular customers is the high art of guest management and TODAY more than ever an important factor for economic stability.

Due to the lack of international guests during the pandemic years, many hotels focused much more on their online direct booking business via their own website.

Even the so dominant OTAs like booking.com and Expedia had to register strong declines in their booking shares in favor of the direct booking business.

Since the fall of 2022, the market has again seen increasing activity from indirect partners. These include the well-known OTA platforms, of course, but also the group travel and agency business.

Now, the question for many hoteliers is how to reconcile dynamic price management and indirect partner business (which admittedly has tended to lead to static prices and blocked availabilities in the past)

The ECOM-MARKETPLACE CENTER by MASCH stands for...

• ...a future-oriented, flexible and heterogeneous online marketing concept for a tourism destination or region such as the Jungfrau Region or the Bernese Oberland.
• ...a dual e-commerce solution for:

• B²C = direct marketing of overnight stays and activities to individual guests
• B²B = bridge between the destination and professional travel suppliers

• ...integration of technology into a holistic service offering for the destination.
• ...SAaS: Software And a Service

The ECOM MARKETPLACE-CENTER B²C within CM Studio .CDM bridges the gap between information around the destination and direct sales of...

• Tickets to museums and visitor attractions.
• Tickets to swimming pools and other public visitor venues.
• Outdoor activities offered by regional service providers.

Ultimately, the ECOM MARKETPLACE-CENTER B²C enables the online visitor and potential guest of your destination to move directly from information gathering to direct reservation of all tourist offers in your destination. This enables an effective and successful online marketing (conversion rate) of the partners and service providers in your destination via the website of the tourism organization directly!

In our last article, we already stated that the success of digital reporting and, in particular, the digital guest card is extremely dependent on the networking of all participants in the tourist destination marketplace.In addition to networking, the effective and continuous evaluation of your offers is extremely important for the service providers in a tourist region in order to be able to react quickly and purposefully to the changing requirements of the guests, even in an ongoing season.This is where the digitization of guest cards and online offers plays a key role. Ergo, every provider and especially the acceptance partners of a guest card need a daily evaluation of the use and deployment of the guest card by visitors in the region.
