Please Vacationers with Package Tracking SoftwareOK I’ll admit it. I LOVE vacations. I still dream of taking a whole summer off, like when I was a kid. I find that taking some time away from your problems actually allows you to come back and approach them in a new way, with new energy and new ideas. In Europe, having more than five weeks of paid vacation is the norm. In fact, Finland and France have a minimum of six weeks of vacation time each year mandated by law for all employers. August is a particularly busy travel month for those Europeans and it is not at all uncommon for them to take three consecutive weeks off during this month. While we Americans don’t have anywhere near that much time off, an estimated 77% of Americans do plan to take vacations this summer and most of those are scheduled for the month of August.

Well, it is August. Sadly, I am working and so are you, so let’s make the best of it. What is your Hotel doing to support these heavy August travelers? Let’s face it, you can’t travel for three weeks with just an overnight bag. That means that these travelers are going to arrive with lots of suitcases, trunks and boxes. Some of those items arrive with your guests, but increasingly as baggage check fees increase, those items are shipped ahead for you to deal with. These pre-shipped items can be a real opportunity for you and your hotel. Receiving these packages well is a way to show how seriously you take your dedication to your guests. This can also be a revenue opportunity. Many Hotels, particularly those specializing in business travelers and conventions, are charging to receive and store inbound packages.

But how can you make managing and monetizing these packages a breeze? That’s simple: implement a cloud-based package tracking system. Using an inbound package tracking software like EZTrackIt can help increase your customer service level while also boosting your bottom line. Not only do package tracking systems like ours pay for themselves in time savings, they impress upon your guests that you care about order and security and allow you to easily apply reasonable per package fees to generate additional revenue. Overall, EZTrackIt inbound package tracking software is a total win-win for you and your guests.
