Sometimes it’s hard to keep up with all of the things Escapia is doing in this session we will review the high-impact capabilities we have launched over the last twelve months, how they have benefited our clients, priorities we have heard from you, and our priorities for the future.
9:45am to 11:00am - Pricing tools that let you maximize your revenue opportunity
Few things influence the decisions of consumers as much as the price they pay. We will discuss how you can use Escapia’s Yield and Rate Management tools to deliver the right price at the right time. We’ll also introduce one of our newest features, Promotion Codes, and show how you can use them to draw attention to great offers. And we will touch on other tools like Quick Quotes and property descriptions that let you make pricing and offers work for you and your guests.
11:15am to 12:30pm - Using Escapia to market better and find more new customers
EscapiaWeb and EscapiaNET make Escapia a powerful marketing platform together with the EscapiaVRS management software. We will discuss how to use Escapia tools to attract more people to your web site, tools you can use to optimize the SEO performance of your website and how to set up your online distribution to make the most financial sense for you.
1:15pm to 2:30pm - Save time and reduce operational costs with Escapia software
Did you know that Escapia customers today use E-document signing to simplify and accelerate lease signatures? Or that new Escapia tools let you bump up your game when it comes to managing housekeeping? Or that Open Item Accounts Payables let you address many common accounting needs? This session will focus on the nuts and bolts of Escapia tools to streamline your back office operations.
2:45pm to 4pm - Tools to bring guests back again and again
Your success is dependent on developing a strong base of repeat guests.
