Australian Hotels Gain Easy, Direct & Complete Connections to Global Sales Channels
Sydney, Australia, July 13, 2011 --(PR.com)-- SimpleDistribution Presents The First Single Access Point Room Sales Management System
Australian hoteliers can now improve the management of online bookings and better target global travel markets with the arrival of integrated rate shopping, channel management and hotel and flight booking engine provider SimpleDistribution.
SimpleDistribution will remove the complexities of selling online and enhance visibility, exposure and revenue from the Internet. Before processing rate and availability updates, hotels can price shop theirs and competitors’ rates to assess optimal product prices for excellent positions across Online Travel Agents. The web-based channel manager simultaneously and in real-time updates the hotel’s selected multiple sales channels and roomtypes with rates, restrictions and room availability.
The booking engine for flight, hotel rooms and ancillary products (e.g. airport transfers, tours or destination activities like golf) is an integral part of the channel manager and can be updated at the same time as all other channels, making SimpleDistribution a true one screen, single access point room sales management system.
The solution is now available throughout Australia and New Zealand at an unbeatable annual subscription fee. Hotels using the channel manager will be able to connect to specialist and niche sites targeting USA and European travelers while taking advantage of new sales opportunities with Facebook, eBay and the GDS.
Hoteliers selling to a myriad of online sales websites will be better able to optimize revenue and bookings by using only the most relevant and productive sales channels. SimpleDistribution has the largest network of third party sales channels (700+) supporting popular, niche and specialist online travel agencies (OTA).
“SimpleDistribution is currently the only channel manager that can maintain all facets of online distribution including OTA’s, tour operators, hotel websites, and social media to online advertising. Connecting to all those channels in single one product supports the optimal overview and control of online booking demands. Increased rates of online bookings have created active consumers and smart travel buyers encouraging the hospitality industry to respond with a greater and a more intelligent online presence,” said Keith Povah, Division President – SimpleDistribution. “Australia and New Zealand’s constantly maturing hospitality market will allow SimpleDistribution to further promote revenue opportunities available through online channel management technologies. New sales demands through social media, as well as the need to make processes more efficient make SimpleDistribution a much-needed product for hotels.”
SimpleDistribution is owned by global software house eRevMax and will be sold through local business, Hotel Representation Australia.
“Hoteliers in Australia and New Zealand need to up their game; technology savvy revenue managers have taken opportunities to better manage price and their sales channels, now all hoteliers can access a wider market,” said Craig Davies, Managing Director, Hotel Representation Australia. “SimpleDistribution is the ideal tool, it’s simple, very affordable and easy to use which means hoteliers can start instantly. We’ve also seen considerable occupancy and revenue gains achieved by hoteliers when managing multiple channels through a single system.”
