A smart discount policy can be organized in a very smart way so that it will both increase your vacation rental revenue and satisfied guests’ requests. With iGMS last-minute discount setting you are enabled to set the discount depending on the number of days prior to reservation. Let’s say you have a five-day gap in your property’s calendar. Instead of losing out on the potential income for this time, you could set a bigger discount for the guests who prefer to book their travels more on the spur of the moment.
Automate your discounts setting so that your vacation rental property will be more attractive for those last-minute reservations. And consequently, increase your occupancy rate.
It’s no secret that setting a longer minimum stay period can also guarantee you longer bookings which are both more convenient and more profitable. But it’s also obvious that no vacation rental manager wants to have unbooked dates because of certain restrictions. In this case, decreasing the minimum stay closer to the arrival day will help you to fill in the gaps.
With iGMS toolkit, you can optimize your maximum and minimum stay period according to your vacation rental strategy.
