However, EyeforTravel s exclusive research suggests that ancillaries now make up a considerable portion of the average hotel s revenue, with the total global hospitality market for ancillaries likely worth more than USD100 billion per year. This is set to increase as the travel market exceeds its pre-recession levels, but are your properties properly benefitting? The report offers business intelligence on trends, peer performance, and technology capabilities, alongside best practice in the fields of marketing, revenue management, distribution, and data management. With this you can achieve above market average revenue growth and gain a crucial competitive advantage.

8 REPORT EXTRACT X X The following extract is taken from the beginning of Chapter 3, which lays out the best revenue management practices to boost ancillary revenues and thus overall profitability. 3 Maximizing ancillary revenue 3.1. Working without an RMS Monitoring ancillary patterns Hotel revenue managers working without an RMS are at a disadvantage when it comes to making calculations and interpreting raw data. Crunching the numbers becomes significantly more time consuming, as does the management of the property s inventory. Eventually the RMS providers will catch up and surpass the ability of an individual working with an Excel spreadsheet to see the data in a way that allows them to make good decisions [about ancillary revenue], says Trevor Stuart-Hill, president of Revenue Matters. However, given that the most common systems are generally not optimized for processing ancillaries at present, managers often find themselves continuing to use these older methods. Nonetheless, if hoteliers continue to demand better functions from their providers, it is only a matter of time before it becomes incorporated into the solutions they offer. In the mean time, revenue managers can begin to track at least on a manual basis some of the key elements related to ancillary spend. They should begin to collect the same kind of data for ancillaries that they do for rooms. The type of product that s being consumed, the way it is being consumed and the frequency, pace and price at which it s being consumed just as they do with rooms and occupancy rates. Stuart-Hill uses the spa as an example, and suggests collating data to answer the following questions: How many treatment rooms are occupied throughout the day? What is the lead in time in terms of booking, and what cancellation rates are we getting? What type of value add-ons are we offering during certain times of the year to get those occupancy levels higher? These types of questions can also be applied to other ancillaries. Only when a systematic process for collecting data about a property s ancillary revenue is achieved can revenue managers begin to assess performance and set targets in the same way that they do for room rates Staffing One consideration for properties when it comes to ancillary revenue, whether they use an RMS or not, is having the operations in place to be able to deliver the offers they are upselling. If you are pushing ancillary offers and this results in, say, more footfall into your restaurants, then you need to make sure that you are aligning your staff requirements accordingly, which means you have to forecast your staff schedule accordingly, and this, of course, has a cost implication, says Anand Medepalli, vice president of solution strategy at JDA Software. Once you start managing these, you need to put metrics and incentives in place, to measure and reward good behavior from staff when it comes to ancillary sales, just as you would with any other sales activity. Whether it s commissions or other incentives, they need to be there for staff, whether it s the sales manager of the function space or the check-in staff. REPORT EXTRACT How many are available? What is the revenue associated with that? Does it change by season? 3.2. Working with an RMS For hotel revenue managers aiming to incorporate ancillaries into their RMS, the first step is to communicate with the provider and understand what is possible.

9 REPORT EXTRACT If there are limitations, it is important to identify where the issue is, and whether it lies with the technology itself, or on the hotel s ability to collect and share ancillary spend data in an automated way. If a Property Management System (PMS) is not providing data dictionaries or information that allows an RMS provider to get the data they need, then that s one thing, says Stuart-Hill. The second is the level of data required. If it s transactional data, then many RMSs aren t set up to extract transactional data, and if they are, they probably aren t set up to extract and categorize and Case Study: Red Lion Hotels Corporation Figure 5: Red Lion Hotels Corporation s RevPAK platform work with the ancillary transaction data. So part of the puzzle is, where is the road block? In order to create a foundation for automated ancillary revenue management, with the aim of eventually finding a way to market ancillary offers to transient guests, hotels need to facilitate the integration of their systems with the RMS, so that data can effectively be extracted and used to inform dynamic pricing. Properties that are able to do this are in a stronger position to work towards Total Revenue Management than those who do not.
