As revenue manager, I always found myself reacting to customer demand retrospectively or on the basis of last year’s data. So I asked myself, what can I do to stop being one step behind all the time, and get ahead of the game? However, no other system offered a good solution, and so the idea for Optimand was born.After the great results yielded by being able to see future demand in real-time and act accordingly with targeted promotions, we tested the system with some of the best hotels in London, and I am proud to present the result. I hope you find using Optimand as prosperous as we do, and start being one step ahead instead of one step behind.Thanks to Optimand you can immediately visualize real-time demand coming from your website. It is exceptionally useful for the digital marketing team and for anyone in charge of your website performances. You can also create and manage customized promotions and special rates aimed at your specific target audience: the level of granularity we can support is outstanding, and your special rates will be displayed based on geolocation and predefined search criteria.
