Email channel: introduction
Communication is key to any guest relationship
The email channel represents how well hoteliers communicate with guests and leverage the channel to drive ancillary revenue while managing reputation. Guests are constantly bombarded with email from various senders – including other hotels. That’s why it’s important that every email sent out is targeted, personalized, and relevant. Not only will guests be more likely to read your emails, but it may result in upsells and better reviews.

Hotel email campaign performance
It’s important to measure open rates, click-through rates, and conversions for any email, but it’s also important to have a granular perspective to assess performance accurately. To that end, we’ve provided metrics for one-time campaigns and recurring campaigns, since hotels use them differently. We also identify the best performing campaign types.

Segmentation impact

Surveys
Surveys are a direct line of communication with your guests, providing insights that can shape and elevate the guest journey. These insights not only help you drive operational improvements, but also foster loyalty, satisfaction, and long-term success. We’ll examine benchmarks for survey response rates and Net Promoter Scores to understand how hoteliers are engaging their guests and meeting expectations.
