With fewer staff members multitasking across departments, automation has become an invaluable resource for hotels. When it comes to relevant and targeted upsell offers, automation is critical for capturing as much upsell demand as possible without burdensome staff overhead.

But full automation of upsell demand generation, demand capture, and demand fulfillment require integration, which is not easily justified in a downturn. Nor1 and Oracle Hospitality are here to help.

With Nor1's suite of upsell products helping your hotel generate and capture upsell demand, and the power of OPERA PMS to fulfill that demand when your guests check in, your hotel's ability to generate revenue and provide an outstanding guest experience just got a lot easier and much more affordable.

Why Now?

Nor1's extensive database of anonymized buyer behavior show guest demand for paid upgrades was higher in January 2021 than in January 2020:

  • 11% higher click-through-rate on upsell calls-to-action on IBE and in email
  • 18% higher rate of guest request for paid upsell offers
  • 17% higher price per night of those requested upsell offers

It's time to use automation to capture this guest demand for upsells at your hotel, giving guests the stay they want while generating much needed revenue with little operational impact.

The Power of Artificial Intelligence Across the Guest Journey

Oracle's Nor1 upsell solutions reach the guest across their travel journey, from the booking engine to check-in, by placing upsell calls-to-action on the booking engine, on pre-arrival emails, on last-minute emails, and at check-in. Guests have the option of when to interact based on their travel needs and preferences, so hotels are better able to capture demand at every point in that journey.

Oracle's Nor1 upsell product suite is powered by PRIME, a data-driven pricing and merchandising engine. Much more than a recommendation engine, PRIME accurately identifies in real-time what products and pricing to show a particular guest with an automated approach built on machine learning. PRIME can better predict guests' willingness to pay for upgrades beyond the amount already paid for confirmed reservations.

It's time for your hotel to use automation to capture and fulfill upsell demand. Contact us at RE:Nor1%20Blog%20Post%20-%20OXI%20%20Promotion" target="_blank" rel="noopener">[email protected], or fill in this form, and we'll get back to you as soon as possible.
