eCRM for Hospitality and Leisure

Highly sensitive to prevailing economic conditions and constantly shifting consumer trends, the hospitality and leisure industry knows only too well the importance of activating and consistently reinvigorating customer relationships.
 
Whether casino and entertainment resorts, shopping malls, hotels or restaurants, hospitality and leisure industry establishments need to ensure they are persistently attracting a steady stream of customer traffic.
 
As competition continues to escalate, demographics shift and consumers become ever more discriminating with their spend, customer engagement has become a decisive competitive advantage.
 
Yet how can establishments communicate and engage with every individual customer in a way that is not only personal and relevant enough to produce the required stream of traffic, but is also cost-effective?
 
The answer is eCRM.
 
eCRM is intelligent, data-driven marketing in the online environment and, as more and more hospitality and leisure industry establishments are discovering, it offers them an extremely effective way of mining specific demographic audiences and driving up both ‘footfall’ and the frequency of repeat visits.
 
eCRM means more customer traffic
By enabling establishments to start building up detailed socio-demographic profiles of visitors and potential customers within their catchment areas — finding out more about what they like, want or need — eCRM will help:
  • identify promotions and offers that will appeal to the largest number of people within the establishment’s catchment area;
     
  • design and dispatch professional promotional materials, such as competitions, invites and vouchers, via cost-effective digital channels;
     
  • ensure campaigns are always relevant — each one targeted at the right prospects within the establishment’s catchment area or customer database;
     
  • ensure promotions are delivered to each chosen prospect at the most opportune time and in the manner they say they prefer (web, mobile or email).
eCRM means more frequent repeat visits
By enabling establishments to personalise their communication with customers, request feedback and to link responses back to profiles, eCRM will help:
  • identify campaigns, like competitions, discount vouchers and unique offers, that will successfully persuade individual customers to return;
     
  • capitalise on customer relationships by regularly communicating with them, via their preferred digital channel (web, mobile or email), to maintain a strong brand presence and ‘top of mind’ awareness.
eCRM means cost-efficient communication
By enabling establishments to automate and schedule customer communication, eCRM will help:
  • reduce the administrative burden and costs of regular or routine communication tasks like monthly newsletters;
     
  • take maximum advantage of last minute specials by sending out personalised, urgent messages to large, disparate audiences (bulk emails or SMS);
     
  • eliminate unwanted and unnecessary communications — reducing wastage and lowering costs.
