Client Overview
A hotel sought to boost occupancy by leveraging AI to uncover hidden guest segments. Using AI-driven insights, the hotel identified new customer groups and tailored marketing campaigns to attract them, leading to increased bookings and revenue.
Objectives
- Leverage AI to uncover hidden patterns in guest data that reveal entirely new customer segments with potential interest in your hotel.
- Boost room fill rate: By understanding the preferences and booking behaviours of these segments, we can develop targeted marketing campaigns and offerings to attract them, ultimately increasing room occupancy and revenue.
Challenges
The hotel struggled to fully understand customer behaviours and preferences, limiting its ability to attract new guest segments. Existing data analysis methods overlooked key patterns, leading to missed opportunities.
Solution
To uncover hidden guest segments and improve occupancy, we implemented an AI-powered solution:
- We created an AI solution that processed a comprehensive dataset including guest demographics, booking history, preferences, booking channels. The AI will then identify and create distinct guest segments representing previously unseen groups with shared characteristics and booking tendencies.
- Generate actionable insights: The AI will provide clear and actionable insights into the newly discovered segments, outlining their preferences, booking triggers, and potential value to the hotel.
Benefits / ROI
- The hotel was able to create targeted marketing campaigns and offerings that resonate with these groups, leading to 47.89% increased bookings and room occupancy.
- By leveraging AI to discover hidden opportunities, the hotel can stay ahead of the curve by attracting new guest segments that competitors might be missing.
