As a hospitality property owner or manager, you have to keep coming come up with imaginative ways to entice new guests, but as you know, this type of marketing can be expensive.

It is less expensive to market to your existing guests than to find new ones.

A customer referral program can do this. You leverage your existing guests to bring in new business.

What are the most significant factors of hospitality property revenue?

According to studies, retention and acquisition are first and second on the list.

By merging both of these factors into one marketing campaign can be very beneficial for your property.

If you can properly employ a customer referral program into your marketing strategy, you’ll get new customers without a lot of extra work. You set up the program and the rest will take care of itself.

Don’t get me wrong, it will take some thought.

The secret here is coming up with the right referral program that gets your current guests excited enough to participate.
