How To Implement a Front Desk Upsell Program That Outperforms Your Prearrival Email Campaign

Doug Kennedy | August 22, 2024

Despite what digital marketing and tech providers may say, I believe upselling can best be accomplished when warm, welcoming, front desk colleagues have authentic, human conversations. That’s not to say that pre-arrival emails that market upsell options in advance do not serve a role, because they do. For one, whatever upselling revenue they produce is a plus, especially since it is automatically generated. Also, pre-arrival emails tee-up a conversation-starting question that a well-trained receptionist can use to open the door. The challenge is that these days, guests who book travel in advance are inundated with pre-arrival emails explai...

What Personalized Hospitality Is and What It Isn’t

Doug Kennedy | May 28, 2024

By Doug Kennedy As a hotel conference speaker opinion writer, I always try to stay up on the very latest innovations and tech solutions, and so I start each day by reading at least a half dozen lodging industry eNewsletters. Being a provider of training in the topic areas of hospitality, sales, and guest service excellence, my eyes are always drawn to any headline with the words “personalized” or “guest hospitality” in it.
