Stampede

This week we launched AI-powered segmentation in Stampede Marketing. It enables marketing teams and operators to build more detailed audiences, at a hugely increased speed.&nbsp;



Most audience-building tools require the user to know all the possible fields and inputs. Then you have to translate the audience you want into those fields and inputs. Not easy. AI Segments cuts out the complexity and uses a natural language request to translate for you.



It cuts down on time (and head-scratching), and it opens the door to more detailed, more valuable segments.



Anyone &#8211; marketer or not &#8211; can simply ask the AI builder about an audience and it will deliver. Here are some examples that we’ve already tried ourselves:



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Show me customers with a birthday next month who have not been in the venue for 3 months</li>



<li>Give me a list of guests who said they like spicy food in our survey</li>



<li>Build an audience of people who like live sport and have been in the venue at least 2 times in the past month</li>
</ul>



As you can tell from some of those examples it can also be used to deliver insight on your customer database. You can get numerical counts on these kinds of queries in seconds, helping you find more opportunities in the database for campaigns, promotions and events that you might not have tried before.



<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-getting-started">Getting Started</h3>



AI Segments is now available for all Stampede users. It’s located in the Marketing area of your Organisation account, under “Segments”. <a href="https://stampede.ai/demo">Book a call</a> to see it first-hand if you don’t have a Stampede account yet.



<ol class="wp-block-list">
<li>Start by entering your prompt and hit Generate, it will create the segment. </li>



<li>Then you can adjust the prompt and go again or adjust the segment manually. </li>



<li>When you’re happy, smash the Create button and the segment will be added to your list of audiences.</li>
</ol>



You can use these segments for Quick, Bulk or Automation campaigns. They can also be edited at any time.



Note: If you want to send marketing campaigns by email or SMS you will need the <a href="https://stampede.ai/get-started/marketing">Marketing</a> module in your plan.



<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-pro-tips">Pro Tips</h3>



It will help to have an understanding of what data sources are in your account already. Take a few minutes to review what’s in your plan so you can ask the right questions of the AI segment builder.



This includes whatever tags you have used in your database and uploads so far. These are going to be super handy for bespoke segments. Get started with using tags soon if you haven’t already.



To practise the prompts &#8211; try recreating an existing segment using the AI builder (you don’t have to Create the duplicate)



Enhance existing segments &#8211; start by having AI Segments rebuild an existing segment (preferably a large one), and then add another more detailed dimension to it.



Don’t forget to use venue names &#8211; the system can read your account so asking it for “People who visited The Red Lion last month” will work!



<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-more-like-this">More like this</h3>



If paid social media advertising is part of your strategy, check out our <a href="https://stampede.ai/blog/meta-advertising-audience-integration">Meta Audience Connect</a> feature. You can push segments (even AI ones) into Meta as a Custom Audience. From there you can run ads to that audience, or use the Custom Audience to create Lookalikes and expand your reach to new potential customers!



<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-need-help">Need help?</h3>



As always, we’re here to help especially when it comes to new features. Reach out to our Customer Experience team to arrange a walkthrough or even an account review. There’s also our Live Chat in Stampede connecting you directly with the team too.

Introducing AI Segments for Marketing

The opening of Jamie Oliver’s new&nbsp;<a href="https://www.hot-dinners.com/2022101211817/Gastroblog/Latest-news/pasta-dreams-jamie-oliver-soho-pop-up-delivery-restaurant" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">delivery-first pasta&nbsp;</a>brand has been hitting the news for the last couple of days.&nbsp;



For many of us, ordering a takeaway or delivery has become a regular thing. In fact,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.hrc.co.uk/news/ordering-part-brits-weekly-mealtime-routine" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">22 million Brits do so at least once a week</a>&nbsp;with&nbsp;<a href="https://www.thecaterer.com/news/consumer-spending-slows-barclaycard-september-2022-evenings-in-spending-more-takeaways" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">customer spending increasing</a>&nbsp;by 10.1% since March.&nbsp;



This recent consumer trend presents a big opportunity. By&nbsp;diversifying your revenue streams&nbsp;you can better protect your food and drink business from market fluctuations.



It&#8217;s time to bring back your delivery offers and meal kits to drive some extra revenue this winter.



<h5 class="wp-block-heading">10 Tips To Increase Your Delivery Orders</h5>



<ol class="wp-block-list"><li>Opt for direct ordering rather than 3rd party &#8211; 62% of customers want to order direct and via an app </li><li>Ensure a smooth ordering process and online experience </li><li>Send offers to customers who have ordered only once to encourage more frequent orders </li><li>Use the data insights to create personalised offers, i.e. favourite menu item </li><li>Tie it to your loyalty program &#8211; 70% prefer a ‘ free delivery’ as a reward </li><li>Have an accurate menu description with enticing imagery </li><li>69% of customers rate reviews as a deciding factor for their next order &#8211; actively ask customers for reviews, reply the good and bad ones, and keep an eye on your scores </li><li>Use customer feedback to continuously improve your processes, packaging, etc. </li><li>Make use of upsell options, i.e. drink package, dessert </li><li>Spread the word &#8211; pinned social media post (and link in your bio), website banner, email</li></ol>

Customers might cut back on expensive meals over the next couple of months, but they still want to&nbsp;treat themselves. Delivery and meal kits hence fit in as an ideal &#8211; and cheaper &#8211; alternative.



It’s up to you to make the&nbsp;<a href="https://stampede.ai/blog/how-to-get-it-right-meal-kit-online-sales-success-by-hawskmoor/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">at-home experience</a>&nbsp;as special as your in-venue one. So, your venue becomes their preferred choice for ordering and you can later&nbsp;turn them into walk-ins.



Here’re some ideas to pimp up your orders:



<ul class="wp-block-list"><li>Come up with seasonal meal kits, i.e. autumn, festive-themed (this also creates a sense of urgency to order and avoid missing the specials!) </li><li>Consider different mid-week and weekend offers, i.e. offer weekend drink packages </li><li>Offer a premium version with high-end ingredients/specials </li><li>Include add-ons, i.e. decoration, curated playlist, printed or digital tasting menus and notes </li><li>Offer a limited special featuring your bestseller and signature dishes </li><li>Include a personal note in your orders </li><li>Sneak in a little surprise in your boxes, i.e. Halloween treats, Christmas chocolate</li></ul>

Secure Revenue This Winter With Delivery Orders

Stampede&#8217;s Meta Audience Connect is a new addition to our Marketing &amp; CRM platform. It enables marketers to seamlessly integrate their Stampede segments with Facebook and Instagram Advertising audiences. This tool opens up a world of possibilities for targeted marketing and effective attribution for digital marketing specialists in hospitality brands.



<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-how-does-meta-audience-connect-work">How does Meta Audience Connect work?</h3>



Meta Audience Connect establishes a two-way connection between Stampede segments and Meta Advertising Audiences. With this connection, hospitality marketers can create targeted audiences in their Meta Advertising accounts, using their Stampede segments.&nbsp;



For instance, they can craft audiences based on Wi-Fi data collected by Stampede, ensuring that their ads are shown to individuals who have logged into Wi-Fi at the venue i.e. have been physically on site. This level of detail in the audience targeting creates hyper-personalised advertising that will massively increase conversion rates, campaign performance and, of course, revenue.



But what about the other direction? Meta Audience Connect also allows users to add individuals from Meta Lead Gen ads to their Stampede segments. This creates a powerful feedback loop where data can flow seamlessly between the two platforms, enabling marketers to refine their targeting and optimise their campaigns over time.



<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-what-are-the-benefits-of-using-meta-audience-connect">What are the benefits of using Meta Audience Connect?</h3>



Meta Audience Connect offers a host of benefits for hospitality marketers, including:



On-point Targeting: By leveraging Stampede&#8217;s rich data and insights, Meta Audience Connect enables hospitality marketers and brands to create highly targeted audiences in Meta. This means that ads are shown to individuals who are genuinely interested in your brand and offers, resulting in higher engagement and conversion rates.



Expanded Reach: Meta Audience Connect allows the marketer to create Lookalike audiences based on their existing customers, reaching a broader audience of potential customers. This expanded reach can help drive more reservations, increase foot traffic, and generate more revenue.&nbsp;



It’s a powerful tactic for growing brands launching a new location in a different part of the country or globally. You can find people in that new area with similar interests to your real previous customers and get your adverts in front of them. The two-way connection means any of them that join your mailing list drop into a dedicated segment automatically.



Measurable Impact: Hospitality marketers can track the performance of their marketing campaigns and measure the direct impact of their advertising efforts. A robust CRM connection and strategy makes it easy to show the gains from PPC advertising as a customer acquisition channel.



Effortless Setup: Despite its powerful capabilities, Meta Audience Connect is incredibly easy to set up and use. Hospitality marketers don&#8217;t need to be tech wizards to leverage this tool. With a few simple steps, they can integrate Stampede and Meta, create segments and audiences, and launch targeted campaigns.



<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-how-to-get-started-with-meta-audience-connect">How to Get Started with Meta Audience Connect</h3>



To start using Meta Audience Connect, you will need to have a Stampede Marketing &amp; CRM subscription and a Meta Business Manager account with admin access.



Then, using the setup guide in Stampede you can connect the two and start mapping segments to audiences, and ad campaigns to segments.



Stampede&#8217;s Meta Audience Connect is a revolutionary tool that empowers hospitality marketers to take their marketing efforts to the next level. By leveraging the power of data and advanced targeting, marketers can drive more reservations, increase revenue, and create memorable experiences for their guests.

Stampede-Meta Audience Connect: Simplifying multi-channel marketing strategies

With Google announcing the end of third-party cookies in 2024, the clock is ticking for hotels to switch to a first-party data strategy for good.



For many this radical change has already proven worthwhile. As per a recent survey by Sojern, <a href="https://www.sojern.com/press-release/81-percent-of-hoteliers-see-a-lift-in-revenue-once-a-first-party-data-strategy-is-implemented">81% of hoteliers said they have seen an increase in revenue</a> since changing their game plan.&nbsp;



No doubt, this is a big strategic move that requires thoughtful resource management and planning.



We’ve gathered some key things to keep in mind before you get started.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-what-is-a-first-party-strategy">What is a first-party strategy?&nbsp;</h2>



First-party data refers to data that is obtained by the hotel through its owned digital channels. Examples are their Guest WiFi, loyalty program or website booking integration.



The biggest benefit is that operators have full ownership over this type of data. They can store, access and manage it directly and use it for marketing purposes and more.



In addition, 1st party data is often more accurate and relevant as it is willingly provided by customers to the company.



However, the current situation is more like a mix of first- and third-party data. The latter often comes from guests booking through OTAs rather than direct.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Why opt for a first-party-only strategy?</h2>



Without third-party tracking and data, operators miss out on essential interaction points in their customers’ journey.&nbsp;



Personalised marketing and on-site service become nearly impossible, the outcome is a rather disjointed guest experience. 



For example, hotels <a href="https://stampede.ai/downloads/the-direct-booking-checklist">don’t get access to OTA booking data</a> and can therefore not contact guests prior to their arrival to tailor their stay.



So in an ideal scenario, all the data is collected by the hotel based on actual customer interactions. From the first touch point, i.e. the initial booking, onwards when guests return.&nbsp;&nbsp;



This then allows operators to create a holistic guest profile which stores preferences and previous interactions. Insights that can be used for personalised marketing to drive long-term loyalty and revenue.



Though, the key to a successful 1st party strategy is getting the right data from the right sources.&nbsp;



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">10 most-used 1st party data sources for hotels</h2>



How can hotel operators gather their own data covering online and offline events? Let’s have a look at some common first-party sources:



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Property Management System (PMS)</li>



<li>Customer Relationship Management System (CRM)</li>



<li><a href="https://stampede.ai/how-it-works/wifi">Guest WiFi</a></li>



<li>Website &#8211; newsletter sign-ups</li>



<li>Mobile app sign-ups</li>



<li>Online booking engine</li>



<li>Guest surveys</li>



<li>Loyalty program</li>



<li><a href="https://stampede.ai/get-bookings">Table booking platform (F&amp;B)</a></li>



<li>Social media channels</li>
</ul>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">4 steps for implementing a first-party data strategy</h2>



Here are 4 essential actions to take to start shifting your strategy:



<ol class="wp-block-list">
<li>Map out your entire customer journey. Consider all potential online and offline sources. Define your marketing short/long-term goals.</li>



<li>Determine the required data and its sources. What is the current process in place and what is missing? Close potential data gaps.</li>



<li>Make the best use of your data. Choose the right technology to manage your data most efficiently.&nbsp;</li>



<li>Analyse and adjust if necessary. Build your own customised dashboards and reports to keep an eye on progress.&nbsp;</li>
</ol>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How to maximise your first-party data</h2>



In general, the more data sources hotels can access, the easier it is for them to build a 360-degree customer view.&nbsp;



However, this can also quickly lead to <a href="https://stampede.ai/blog/5-common-data-integration-flaws-in-hospitality-tech">disjointed data silos</a> piling up, which requires a lot of manual labour and time to connect them. But without their integration, the data is of no use and correct attribution is nearly impossible.&nbsp;



In addition, handling various systems and spreadsheets also increases the potential risk of a GDPR breach.



So, in order to use the data in the most efficient and secure way, hotels should therefore opt for a <a href="https://stampede.ai/">unified CRM solution</a>. It automatically syncs all their sources into one place without the need for integrations.



All staff members get access to the same data and from there they can quickly analyse it, segment it and use it to drive their marketing efforts.&nbsp;



Plus, with a multi-functional system, the overall data quality increase as guest profiles are always up-to-date. Which in turn results in better marketing conversions.

Identifying your loyal customer base shouldn’t be a gut feeling that it exists in some way.



You can and should put a real number on how many you have.



All you need is the right tools and access to customer loyalty data.



You want to dig really deep into your data to get valuable insights from your loyalty numbers.



Here’s everything you need to know to define concrete loyalty for your business.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-customer-loyalty-data-sources">Customer loyalty data sources</h2>



There are many possible in-venue and online sources that you can use to gain customer loyalty data.



Some examples:



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>WiFi logins from your Guest WiFi</li>



<li>Interactions from your loyalty program</li>



<li>Bookings made via your booking system</li>



<li>Transactions from your POS</li>



<li>Purchases from your E-commerce</li>
</ul>



What you want to learn from this data is the number of interactions each customer had over a certain period of time.&nbsp;



Next, you need to narrow down this data a bit further.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Segmentation to identify loyal customers</h2>



Segmenting your data will help you to spot common behaviours that determine how engaged and loyal your customers are.&nbsp;



You are looking for patterns in the data here.



Key metrics to look out for:



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>How much do they spend on average in-venue and / or online</li>



<li>How often do they visit/book during a period of time</li>



<li>How engaged are they with your loyalty scheme, e.g. number of stamps, frequency of points&nbsp;</li>



<li>How often do they book special events</li>
</ul>



This helps you to spot trends, i.e. the frequency of bookings per month goes down after the 3rd visit.



From this, you can then take relevant action.



For example, set up an <a href="https://stampede.ai/blog/easy-and-profitable-marketing-with-automations">automated email</a> to customers who have been at your venue 3 times. Feature some of your venue highlights and invite them to come back.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Clever analysis tool: retention cohort report</h2>



In addition and to get a black-and-white percentage of customers that have repeatedly returned over a time period, you can create a retention cohort chart.



But before you fire up a new spreadsheet and start manually adding your data, there might be a better and quicker solution readily available.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Making sense of your retention cohort report</h2>



A lot of e-commerce and other tech software comes with an automatically created <a href="https://stampede.ai/blog/introducing-more-tools-to-thrive-stampede-2023-product-update">retention report</a> as part of their analytics feature.&nbsp;



Such a report might look a little complicated at first but is quite easy to read and understand.



The image below shows an example.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="690" src="https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Group-11227-1024x690.png" alt="" class="wp-image-22925" srcset="https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Group-11227-1024x690.png 1024w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Group-11227-300x202.png 300w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Group-11227-768x518.png 768w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Group-11227-150x101.png 150w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Group-11227.png 1200w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



The left column refers to the selected monthly time interval. The top column represents the number of subsequent visits.&nbsp;



The chart starts with the first visit which is the total number of customers in that particular month. This will be your reference number moving forward.&nbsp;



Reading from left to right, it shows you how many of those initial customers have reached their number of return visits (along the top row)



The report displays cohorts. So each return visit number is a separate group with customers that share one characteristic: their number of return visits.&nbsp;



As a consequence, customers can only ever be in one cohort at a time, and there is no overlap.



What actions can you take from this report? You can, for example, build segments from your cohorts and create tailored marketing campaigns for them.&nbsp;



Someone who has visited 10 times will expect different communications from someone who has only visited 2 times.

How Hospitality Operators Can Use Data To Reveal Loyal Customers

If you’re a hospitality operator looking to keep your guests engaged and loyal, personalised marketing is your secret weapon. However, to offer truly customised experiences businesses have to include one invaluable tech tool in their overall customer relationship management <a href="https://stampede.ai/blog/how-to-create-a-hospitality-crm-strategy-that-drives-results">(CRM) strategy</a>: their CRM platform.



In this blog post, we’ll discuss how hospitality operators can create personalised email &amp; SMS marketing campaigns powered by their CRM.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-what-is-personalised-marketing-and-why-does-it-matter">What is personalised marketing and why does it matter?</h2>



Personalised marketing is the process of creating and sending out email and/or SMS campaigns that are tailored to each customer. Studies show that <a href="https://www.epsilon.com/us/about-us/pressroom/new-epsilon-research-indicates-80-of-consumers-are-more-likely-to-make-a-purchase-when-brands-offer-personalized-experiences">80% of customers are more likely to make a purchase from personalised marketing</a>.&nbsp;



The approach involves combining data insights with creative messaging and personalised content to create the ultimate customer experience.



By leveraging data insights, hospitality marketers can create more relevant content that resonates better with their target audience. This leads to increased customer loyalty and a higher chance of repeat business.&nbsp;



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How to get started with personalised email &amp; SMS campaigns using your CRM</h2>



If you&#8217;re looking to step up your email and SMS marketing game, then targeted campaigns are the way to go.&nbsp;



The data from your CRM builds the foundation for your personalised marketing. Data points can include everything from customer purchase history to personal preferences.&nbsp;



Once you have a good understanding of your audience, it&#8217;s time to use your CRM system to create targeted campaigns that speak directly to them.&nbsp;



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Build a holistic customer profile</h4>



Creating a comprehensive customer profile in your CRM is crucial for any business looking to better understand its audience. To build a holistic customer profile, it&#8217;s important to collate all data sources in your CRM system to gain a full picture of the customer journey.&nbsp;



In order to get the most out of your customer profiles, you should strive to combine as much data as possible by accessing different sources. For example through your Guest WiFi, <a href="https://stampede.ai/get-bookings">table booking platform</a> or loyalty scheme. This includes everything from basic information such as age to interests and purchasing habits.



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Create segments</h4>



To effectively reach and engage your target audience hospitality marketers need to create marketing segments within the CRM platform. These segments can be based on demographics such as age or gender as well as geography and behaviour.&nbsp;



By understanding the unique characteristics and needs of each segment, you can tailor your messaging. This way you will resonate better with them and improve the effectiveness of your marketing campaigns.&nbsp;



Additionally, businesses should make use of a CRM’s tagging feature. Profiles that are tagged based on triggers can further enhance segmentation by identifying specific actions or behaviours.



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Set up automation</h4>



Marketing automation is one of the most valuable CRM features for hospitality operators.



With the ability to trigger email and SMS campaigns based on certain customer behaviour and interaction, businesses can create personalised messages that really engage with their audience.



For example, a simple <a href="https://www.coastdigital.co.uk/2020/01/02/email-marketing-why-you-should-embrace-birthday-emails/">birthday email can generate 342% higher revenue </a>compared to a traditional promotional email. Additionally, businesses can utilise automation to retain customers who haven&#8217;t visited their venue in a while with a special discount.&nbsp;



One big benefit is that this CRM automation saves valuable time for staff as once set up, they run automatically.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How other hospitality venues have successfully used personalised marketing</h2>



One of our customers, <a href="https://stampede.ai/customer/birdhouse-london">Birdhouse London</a>, has saved 2 hours per week on their marketing by using automated email campaigns. When customers subscribe to their newsletter, they get an automated email with a free margarita offer.



Another successful example comes from <a href="https://stampede.ai/customer/the-coal-exchange-hotel">The Coal Exchange Hotel</a>. They’ve used the clever Stampede CRM segmentation tool to tag customers that would be interested in their ‘kids eat free’ deal. From this, they were able to generate over £900 return visit revenue.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Summary</h2>



Personalisation is transforming the way hospitality operators communicate with customers. With specific and personalised campaigns, you can increase your revenue by targeting customers who are most likely to take action.&nbsp;



The first step to getting started is building a holistic view of your customers using your CRM data. Other successful implementations are creating segmentations and setting up automation.&nbsp;



As seen in the examples above, hospitality businesses can double their sales just by using personalised <a href="https://stampede.ai/how-it-works/marketing">email and SMS marketing</a> in a more intentional way powered by their CRM insights. Personalisation is key when it comes to reaching higher ROI in your marketing campaigns.

How To Create Personalised Marketing Campaigns With Your CRM

In hospitality, it’s not just about serving great food or providing a comfortable stay – it’s about delivering personalised experiences that make each guest feel valued. To do this effectively, you need a deep understanding of their unique needs and preferences. Let’s explore how Stampede helps you gain these insights, empowering you to offer guests exactly what they’re looking for.



<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-why-segmentation-matters">Why Segmentation Matters</h3>



Mass marketing is out. In today’s world, people expect to receive relevant, personalised messages. Segmentation allows you to target specific groups of customers based on factors like behaviour, location, and preferences. By doing this, you ensure that each message resonates with the right audience, increasing engagement and loyalty.



So why is this important for hospitality businesses? Simple: when you send the right offer to the right person, the chances of that guest returning or making a booking skyrocket.



In the Forbes article &#8220;<a href="https://www.forbes.com/sites/blakemorgan/2020/02/18/50-stats-showing-the-power-of-personalization/">50 Stats Showing the Power of Personalization</a>,&#8221; Blake Morgan shares compelling statistics that highlight the effectiveness of personalised marketing in boosting customer engagement and loyalty.



<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-the-data-dilemma-offline-businesses">The Data Dilemma: Offline Businesses</h3>



One of the biggest challenges for offline businesses, like restaurants and hotels, is gathering useful and relevant data to segment their audience. How can you know your guests&#8217; preferences if you don’t interact with them online? This is where technology steps in.



Using a tool like Stampede Wi-Fi, you can collect guest data effortlessly. When guests first connect to your Wi-Fi, they fill out a quick form, providing valuable insights such as whether they are local or whether they like certain types of food. This data is a goldmine for building targeted marketing campaigns.



<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-how-to-create-segments-for-your-business">How to Create Segments for Your Business</h3>



Here’s a simple approach to audience segmentation for hospitality businesses:



<h4 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-1-collect-data">1. Collect Data</h4>



Start by collecting information about your guests through Wi-Fi sign-ups or surveys. You can ask questions like:



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Are you local?</li>



<li>Do you prefer spicy food?</li>



<li>Are you interested in special offers or events?</li>

<h4 class="wp-block-heading">2. Build Segments</h4>



Once you have the data, it’s time to create segments.&nbsp;



Use IF and AND conditions to refine your campaign targeting. In this example, we&#8217;re targeting guests who live nearby and enjoy spicy food. We selected &#8216;Custom Question equals Yes&#8217; (for those who answered &#8216;Are you local?&#8217;) and guests who liked a survey about spicy food.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="775" height="1024" src="https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/Segmentation-775x1024.png" alt="Segmentation in Stampede example" class="wp-image-23626" srcset="https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/Segmentation-775x1024.png 775w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/Segmentation-227x300.png 227w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/Segmentation-768x1014.png 768w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/Segmentation-150x198.png 150w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/Segmentation.png 942w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 775px) 100vw, 775px" /></figure>



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">3. Targeted Campaigns</h4>



With your segments in place, you can now create highly targeted campaigns. Want to promote a new spicy dish? Send an email to guests who previously said they liked spicy food. Got a special deal for locals? Make sure it’s only reaching people who live nearby.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large is-resized"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="610" height="1024" src="https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/Email-610x1024.png" alt="email example" class="wp-image-23624" style="width:650px;height:auto" srcset="https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/Email-610x1024.png 610w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/Email-179x300.png 179w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/Email-768x1289.png 768w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/Email-150x252.png 150w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/Email.png 858w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 610px) 100vw, 610px" /></figure>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Real-World Example: Segmenting for a Restaurant</h3>



Let’s say you run a restaurant and want to promote a new dish. Using your Stampede Wi-Fi data, you’ve segmented your audience into two groups:



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Locals who like spicy food.</li>



<li>People who are NOT local to your area </li>
</ul>



For the locals, you send a targeted email promoting your new spicy menu item. You know they’re nearby and love spicy food, so this campaign is highly relevant to them.



For the non-locals, you could send an “Upcoming events” email with a discount on their next visit, encouraging them to return with multiple reasons to come back to the area



By tailoring your message to each group, you increase the chances of conversion, bringing more guests back to your venue.



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">The Tools to Make It Happen</h3>



Tools like Stampede make segmentation simple. Not only does it collect valuable guest data for you, but it also automates the process of creating and sending personalised campaigns. With everything in one place — from data capture and marketing tools to detailed reporting — you can easily manage your entire marketing strategy. This all-in-one solution allows you to track the performance of each campaign and see what resonates best with each segment, helping you optimise your efforts for greater success.&nbsp;



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">The Bottom Line</h3>



Segmentation and targeting aren’t just marketing buzzwords – it’s a practical, powerful strategy that can transform how you connect with your guests. By gathering data, creating meaningful segments, and targeting the right people with the right message, you’ll see better engagement, higher loyalty, and more repeat business.



In hospitality, every guest matters. Make sure they feel that by sending them marketing that speaks directly to their preferences.

4 Best Restaurant Table Booking Software Compared

Do you own or operate a restaurant? If so, then you&#8217;re likely always on the lookout for ways to increase customer loyalty, revenues, and long-term growth.



One of the best solutions that could help with all these goals is having a <a href="https://stampede.ai/blog/what-is-a-hospitality-crm-system-a-full-guide">Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system</a> in place.



CRMs can vastly improve marketing efficiency by providing restaurants with clever tools to create campaigns that personalise every interaction between your business and customers.



In this blog post, we&#8217;ll discuss how restaurants benefit from using an integrated CRM solution.&nbsp;



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-understanding-how-a-crm-system-can-help-increase-revenue-for-restaurants">Understanding How a CRM System Can Help Increase Revenue for Restaurants</h2>



Restaurants are always searching for ways to increase revenue and attract repeat customers. One solution that has proven effective is investing in a restaurant CRM system.



By using a CRM, restaurants can <a href="https://stampede.ai/blog/5-common-data-integration-flaws-in-hospitality-tech">collect and consolidate customer data </a>in one place to gain a comprehensive understanding of their clientele. This allows them to grow a customer profile by using different data sources and digital touchpoints. Sources could be coming from your Guest WiFi, your order &amp; pay app or your table booking software. So they can better tailor experiences to the needs and preferences of individual guests.



Additionally, a restaurant CRM solution allows for data-driven decision-making, enabling restaurants to make strategic choices about marketing campaigns, menu offerings, and more.



By automating and streamlining many operational tasks, a CRM also frees up staff time. This allows them to focus on providing exceptional customer experiences.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-identifying-and-segmenting-your-audience-with-a-crm-system">Identifying and Segmenting Your Audience with a CRM System</h2>



As a restaurant owner, identifying and segmenting your audience is crucial for a successful marketing strategy. With the help of a CRM system, you can better understand your customers, their behaviour and how they have interacted with your venue.



You can create segments based on specific characteristics, such as demographics, purchasing patterns or preferred menu items.



Additionally, you can combine data from different sources, such as your table booking system, your Guest WiFi or your loyalty program. This will help you gain even deeper insights into your customers.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-benefits-of-personalised-marketing-through-a-crm-system">Benefits of Personalised Marketing Through a CRM System</h2>



When it comes to restaurant marketing, nothing beats the power of personalised marketing through a CRM system.



Once you’ve segmented your data, you can tailor your marketing efforts to each individual customer. This helps you create more targeted and personalised email and SMS campaigns that resonate with customers and make them feel valued.



As a result, you can grow a loyal customer base that feels a strong emotional connection to your brand. When customers experience a personalised experience from your restaurant, they&#8217;re more likely to return time and time again.



This means that you can increase repeat visits, boost customer spending and ultimately grow your restaurant business.



Personalised marketing through a CRM system is a valuable tool that can help you differentiate your restaurant from competitors and build long-lasting customer relationships.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-takeaways">Takeaways</h2>



Overall, the benefits of using a <a href="https://stampede.ai/amaze">restaurant CRM system</a> are numerous, serving as a valuable tool for driving revenue growth and improving customer satisfaction. You can understand customer behaviour, segment your audiences, and receive invaluable insights into customer preferences and habits.



By leveraging the insights provided by a reliable CRM system, restaurateurs are able to create long-term relationships with customers while optimising their digital marketing strategies.&nbsp;



Many restaurants have successfully used a CRM to leverage their business operations and generate better results for their companies. Restaurant owners and operators should therefore seriously consider investing in innovative technologies like a CRM system.

How Restaurants Benefit From A CRM System

A few weeks into 2023 and you might have ditched your new year’s resolutions already. No judgement, we’ve all been there.



However, a new year is always a great opportunity to reshuffle one’s business strategies in order to up the game.



Looking ahead, there are a bunch of exciting growth and marketing trends to watch out for. And yes, technology will of course play a part in those.



We’ve had a look into 5 key hospitality trends that you should integrate into your strategy to get the most out of 2023.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">1. Build A Unified Customer Experience&nbsp;</h2>



An outdated user interface will drive customers away.&nbsp;



So, you need to start judging your digital tools and assets as if they were your shop window or your venue decoration.&nbsp;



Think about your <a href="https://stampede.ai/blog/avoid-these-3-common-guest-wifi-mistakes">Guest WiFi sign-up</a>, booking platform or order &amp; pay app. Are you happy with them representing your brand?



If not, the first step is to align all your tech tools toward a unified brand experience.&nbsp;



Here’s what to focus on:



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Stick to your branding and brand voice across all channels and tools</li>



<li>Make sure the digital customer experience is as smooth as your in-venue one</li>



<li>Focus on easy-to-navigate tools for your customers (and staff)</li>



<li>Don’t neglect your website &#8211; a lot of attention has been paid to social media lately</li>



<li>All-in-one solutions allow for a unified experience as they don’t require integrations</li>
</ul>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">2. Opt For Industry-Specific Tools</h2>



Too many cooks spoil the broth. Time to move away from the clunky and disjointed tech stack that you might have gathered over the past years.&nbsp;



Instead, focus on ROI-delivering tech that helps you achieve the results you want when <a href="https://stampede.ai/blog/how-to-save-money-on-your-digital-tech-tools">revising your tools</a>.



Industry-specific tools are what you’re looking for here, to replace the mainstream big-name ones everyone else is using.



Those specific ones are tailored to your needs, easier to use and are therefore also accessible to smaller operators.&nbsp;



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">3. Focus On Hyper-Personalisation</h2>



<a href="https://financesonline.com/hospitality-trends/">Approximately 90%</a> of customers are willing to share behavioural data if it results in a better brand experience.



No question, personalisation will continue to reign.



What changes is that customer insights are no longer coming from separate sources. It’s the clever combination of multiple data sources that takes it to the next level and makes it even more powerful.&nbsp;



This is also referred to as hyper-personalisation and is based on real-time behavioural and transactional data insights and actions.



With this, you want to create a 1:1 customer experience that translates into longtime loyalty.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">4. Go Beyond Customer Loyalty</h2>



Customers trust their peers more than any other source when looking for new venue recommendations.



It’s up to you to identify your <a href="https://stampede.ai/blog/how-to-use-data-to-unveil-your-true-brand-fanatics">super advocates </a>amongst your customers, those that spend more time and money at your venue than the average. <a href="https://stampede.ai/blog/how-to-use-data-to-unveil-your-true-brand-fanatics">Hint</a> &#8211; your data can help you unveil them.



Once you’ve done that you can nurture them with targeted marketing and personalised rewards (i.e. loyalty or referral program) to start building a loyal community.



This community will help you spread the word, boost your reviews and attract many new customers. Loyalty always pays off.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-5-let-ai-powered-solutions-give-you-a-hand">5. Let AI-Powered Solutions Give You A Hand</h2>



Since the beginning of the new year, our feeds have been flooded with AI talk. There’s a lot going on at the moment, with new tools coming up in a blink of an eye.



Whilst some of it might still be in its early days, we can already see the benefits for businesses. It’s all about efficiency.&nbsp;



AI-powered automations can optimise various parts of your marketing and help you scale up. From content generation to email marketing, social media and operational tasks.



They streamline less-pivotal parts of your business and save you hours a week whilst generating revenue on auto-pilot. What’s not to like about this?&nbsp;



Arguably, there needs to be work done in some areas to make them more industry-specific so that they can be used by everyone without any programming background.



Make sure you stay busy all year round with the&nbsp;<a href="https://stampede.ai/?utm_source=hs_email&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;_hsenc=p2ANqtz--P70VbCxT_AnnS8JwuzgRrHnMbNXfBlgQ_e9X3bmhij7P8-rUVLSBDUzhZwHRS_Yse9ab7" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Stampede Customer Experience Platform</a>&nbsp;that drives 5x more repeat customers.&nbsp;<a href="https://h.stampede.ai/meetings/stampede/demo?utm_source=hs_email&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;_hsenc=p2ANqtz--P70VbCxT_AnnS8JwuzgRrHnMbNXfBlgQ_e9X3bmhij7P8-rUVLSBDUzhZwHRS_Yse9ab7" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Reach out</a>&nbsp;to find out more.

5 Key Hospitality Growth Trends You Shouldn’t Miss This Year

This month we&#8217;ve been putting the spotlight on branding within Stampede.



Consistent branding has a huge positive impact on customer loyalty and engagement. The goal is to improve recognition and recollection amongst your customers, increasing the chance of word-of-mouth marketing. And we all want more of that lovely free advertising.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-what-s-new">What&#8217;s new?</h2>



Brand Kits &#8211; a single location in Stampede to control your brand settings across all channels. This includes WiFi login, review feedback emails, website forms, and the table booking widget.



Bringing the settings for all these into one location will save you and your teams heaps of time and effort. Deploying consistent branding this way won&#8217;t have directly measurable results but it&#8217;s impact will be positive.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-digging-into-details">Digging into details</h2>



Within the Brand Kit you&#8217;ll be able to save things like text font for both headings and body text at account level to save you doing this for every email.



You&#8217;ll also be able to upload a Primary image, such as your logo, and colour to be used across all your channels. This would control the colour of all your call-to-action buttons for example &#8220;Book now&#8221; on an email or &#8220;Confirm booking&#8221; on your table booking widget.



Lastly (for now) you can also set a default Background image to be used in various locations. This might be a collage of your dishes, an artful photo of your interior design, or maybe something more conceptual around your brand like a pattern.



Once you&#8217;ve got these set you can check the previews to see how your various channels will look.



Ideally they should be very similar to your menus, website and any other existing brand elements you have.



If you have an existing brand book &#8211; this will be the place to input that so that it&#8217;s saved across your account.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-coming-soon">Coming soon</h2>



Booking confirmation pages &#8211; our team is working on a new landing page for table booking confirmations. It&#8217;ll make managing bookings easier for customers, and we&#8217;re including ways to help them spread the word about their visit to your venues.



Review capture design &#8211; we&#8217;re also giving our Reviews automation emails a refresh. Mobile optimisation is our main priority here, and when paired with the Brand kits, it&#8217;ll tie the digital customer experience together.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-getting-started">Getting started</h2>

New Features & Updates – September 2023

For decades, hospitality businesses have trusted in the power of human labour to keep their venues running. Artificial Intelligence (AI) promises more efficient operations and better-personalised experiences for their customers.&nbsp;



But while AI has comes with huge benefits &#8211; from automating mundane tasks to better understanding customers’ needs &#8211; it also poses potential drawbacks.&nbsp;



Before you decide whether or not integrating AI into your hospitality operations is right for you, take some time to consider both the pros and cons we lay down in this blog article.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-how-ai-is-used-in-the-hospitality-industry">How AI is used in the hospitality industry</h2>



AI is being used in a variety of ways in the hospitality industry, from chatbots that assist with reservations to orders to automated systems that streamline check-in and check-out processes and marketing and sales automation.



It also comes with the ability to predict customer needs and preferences, which can help with recommendations, personalised service and upsell.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-key-advantages-of-using-ai-in-hospitality">Key advantages of using AI in hospitality</h2>



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">1. Increased operational efficiency and productivity</h4>



With AI, businesses are able to streamline their operational and administrative processes and automate tasks. This allows for a significant increase in productivity and better resource management.



Moreover, with less manual handling required, there is a reduced chance of human error. Especially when dealing with customer data or uploading and updating spreadsheets, which can be prone to mistakes.



Marketing teams can massively improve their efforts with AI. For example, use data insights to build defined customer segments. The foundation for email and SMS campaigns that really resonate with customers and drive them back to their venue.&nbsp;



With clever <a href="https://stampede.ai/downloads/hospitality-marketing-automation-playbook">campaign automation</a>, operators can additionally save valuable time and staff can focus on more crucial tasks.



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">2. Reduced costs</h4>



With the rise of AI, there are new opportunities for hospitality businesses to cut costs.



Routine and repetitive tasks can easily be automated, saving on labour costs. Besides, by implementing AI, operators can bypass ongoing staff shortages.



It also allows for more efficient and accurate decision-making backed by real data insights. So without relying on guesswork, operators can ultimately reduce unnecessary costs in the long run.



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">3. Improved customer experience</h4>



The key to retaining customers is to ensure that they have a memorable experience when interacting with your brand. This is where the use of AI comes in.&nbsp;



Businesses can create a much more personalised and tailored experience that is based on customers’ preferences and behaviours.



Moreover, AI can help to connect all of a customer&#8217;s interactions with a brand across various digital channels. This contributes towards a more unified and seamless online experience.&nbsp;



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">4. Better forecasting</h4>



In today&#8217;s fast-paced environment, having accurate and timely forecasts can mean the difference between success and failure.&nbsp;



AI has the ability to analyse vast amounts of customer data in a second and provide insights into revenue opportunities that may have otherwise been missed.&nbsp;



Perhaps even more importantly, AI can predict market trends, giving businesses an edge in their strategic planning. By leveraging the preciseness of forecasting, businesses can make smarter decisions, allocate resources more effectively, and ultimately, increase their bottom line.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-main-disadvantages-of-using-ai-in-hospitality">Main disadvantages of using AI in hospitality</h2>



Although AI has the potential to take business operations to the next level, it comes with its share of disadvantages that should also be considered.



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">&nbsp;1. Impersonal service</h4>



One major issue with AI is the loss of the human touch. Whether it&#8217;s automated customer service systems or self-checkout kiosks, these rather impersonal experiences can negatively affect customer satisfaction.



AI systems can never fully replace human intuition and judgement, which can also lead to errors and inaccuracies in service.&nbsp;



No doubt, the human element is vital to creating a warm and welcoming environment. It&#8217;s through genuine connections with staff that customers feel valued and it&#8217;s those connections that keep them coming back time and time again.



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">2. System failure</h4>



Running a hospitality business is a complex task that requires a lot of moving parts to function well. The success of operations depends heavily on all of the systems working properly.



Unfortunately, when these systems fail, they can cause serious disruption to the entire operation. Rooms may be double-booked, orders may be lost or misplaced and customers may be left waiting for extended periods of time.



As a result, unsatisfied customers and negative reviews can quickly pile up, causing lasting damage to the business.&nbsp;



To mitigate the risk of system failure, it’s important for hospitality operators to have a plan in place in case their AI tool breaks down. By being proactive and prepared, they can ensure a seamless experience for their customers.



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">3. Technological limitations</h4>



The hospitality industry requires technology tools that cater to their particular needs. Customer interactions happen both online and offline. Generic AI tools might not align with their specific requirements and might therefore create more work than taking off the workload if not set up properly.



Even with the right technology tools to hand the various systems used need to interact and talk to each other. Without those <a href="https://stampede.ai/blog/5-common-data-integration-flaws-in-hospitality-tech">integrations</a>, the data flow is disconnected and operators are not able to generate a single customer view.



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">4. High implementation costs</h4>



The implementation of these tools often comes at a high cost, making them unaffordable for smaller venues. This situation has forced operators to carefully weigh the pros and cons before deciding if it is worth investing in AI tools.&nbsp;



While AI can bring about significant returns, it may not be a worthwhile investment for all businesses. However, as technology continues to advance, we may see a rise in more cost-effective solutions that cater to a range of budgets.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-summary">Summary</h2>



In conclusion, there are pros and cons of using AI in the hospitality industry that should be taken into account.&nbsp;



Technology can be used to save money, increase efficiency, improve customer experience and enable more precise forecasting. However, many operators are still struggling with the lack of human element when it comes to dealing with customers and their needs.&nbsp;



Furthermore, technological limitations should not be disregarded as they might also cause certain problems when it comes to adapting AI to existing processes.&nbsp;



Finally, before making any investments in AI, operators should evaluate the costs associated with them as this could highly affect their financial situation.&nbsp;



All factors taken into consideration, applying AI technology correctly can prove extremely beneficial for restaurants and the hospitality industry in general.

9 Ways To Retain Customers With Clever Segmentation

If you&#8217;re a restaurant owner or operator looking to boost sales, improve operational efficiency and increase customer loyalty, then it&#8217;s time to invest in a reliable restaurant <a href="https://stampede.ai/blog/what-is-a-hospitality-crm-system-a-full-guide">CRM (Customer Relationship Management) system</a>. 



In this blog post, we&#8217;ll explore the top 6 key features of a successful restaurant CRM and discuss how they can help you become more efficient at managing your customers.



Here are the 6 must-have key features that you should be looking for when choosing your CRM:



<ol class="wp-block-list">
<li>Customer profile management</li>



<li>Customer interaction tracking</li>



<li>Integrated marketing features</li>



<li>Automations</li>



<li>Reporting and analytics</li>



<li>Third-party integrations and reporting</li>
</ol>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">1. Customer profile management</h2>



Efficient customer profile management is crucial for hospitality businesses to maintain strong relationships with customers.&nbsp;



The customer profile stores all the customer data, such as contact information and other interactions from different sources in one centralised place. From there they can be easily managed and updated. If kept well-maintained it can facilitate and improve direct customer communication and marketing.



For example, tags can be added to profiles to categorise and segment them so that businesses can develop campaigns tailored to their customer&#8217;s needs



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">2. Customer interaction tracking</h2>



As a business, it&#8217;s important to understand how your customers interact with your brand.&nbsp;



By tracking and analysing all customer interactions across various digital touchpoints, such as Guest WiFi, table bookings or order &amp; pay app, you can gain a deeper understanding of their needs, preferences and pain points.&nbsp;



You can easily access the history of all previous interactions, enabling you to tailor your engagement to their specific needs and preferences.



This knowledge can empower you to make informed decisions and optimise business processes that lead to improved customer satisfaction and loyalty.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">3. Integrated marketing feature</h2>



An effective CRM solution should include an <a href="https://stampede.ai/how-it-works/marketing">integrated marketing feature</a>, with the ability to send email and SMS campaigns that allow businesses to streamline their communication efforts.&nbsp;



The CRM data can be used to segment customers for personalised campaigns. By targeting specific groups with tailored messaging, businesses can foster more meaningful connections with their customers and drive growth.&nbsp;



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">4. Automations</h2>



Marketing automations have become increasingly popular in recent years as businesses look for ways to streamline their operations and save time.&nbsp;



Automated email and SMS campaigns, triggered by certain customer interactions are an effective way of delivering tailored content to them.&nbsp;



These automated campaigns can also improve operational efficiency. This allows businesses to focus on other core tasks while the marketing takes care of itself.&nbsp;



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">5. Reporting and analytics</h2>



As businesses continue to expand, it becomes increasingly important to understand the impact of each initiative on growth. This is where the power of reporting and analytics comes in.&nbsp;



With a comprehensive overview dashboard that presents important metrics, such as Return on Investment (ROI), businesses can track their performance across different venues. It also gives them an overview of the results of their marketing campaigns.&nbsp;



Specific hospitality <a href="https://stampede.ai/how-it-works/analytics">customer analytics metrics</a> such as the number of return versus new customers can also help businesses better understand their customer base and make informed decisions.



Furthermore, CRM reports can provide businesses with data-backed insights that are crucial for growth. With these powerful tools, businesses can easily track their performance and stay ahead of the competition.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">6. Third-party integrations</h2>



When it comes to CRM integrations, third-party tools can play a crucial role in helping businesses enrich their customer data.&nbsp;



By integrating with multiple data sources, businesses can gain deeper insights into their customers and manage their relationships more effectively.&nbsp;



Don’t let manual data entry and outdated systems hold you back. Automated data sync eliminates the need for manual data entry, saving businesses valuable time and reducing errors. An automated data sync means that all your data is updated in real-time, ensuring that you have access to the most accurate information at all times.&nbsp;



With just a few clicks, businesses can integrate their CRM system with other tools they need for success.&nbsp;



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-summary">Summary</h2>



<a href="https://stampede.ai/">A restaurant CRM</a> with all the key features mentioned above is essential to any business looking to upgrade its customer experience, streamline processes and boost profits.&nbsp;



An effective restaurant CRM should help hospitality operators to access data from one central place. Users should also be able to act quickly on customer interactions.&nbsp;



It&#8217;s also vital that the system is user-friendly, making it easy for staff to navigate on a daily basis.



By focusing on maximising every interaction with customers, businesses can build strong relationships and increase loyalty. This ultimately leads to improved profitability.&nbsp;

The 6 Must-Have Key Features Of A Restaurant CRM

The financial and operational benefits of a <a href="https://stampede.ai/blog/what-is-a-hospitality-crm-system-a-full-guide">Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system</a> are immense for any type of business. 



Though CRMs also come in all shapes and sizes, and not all are suitable for the hospitality industry.



We had a look at the main differences between a generic CRM and a hospitality-tailored one.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-generic-crm-vs-hospitality-crm">Generic CRM vs. Hospitality CRM</h2>



Generic CRMs, such as HubSpot or Salesforce, are centred around sales. Their main core features are for example lead management, forecasting and task management. They therefore often fall into the B2B software category.



Hospitality-specific CRMs on the other hand put the customer in the focus, which makes them B2C. Their features are designed to better communicate with customers and create personalised experiences to drive long-term loyalty.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Main differences</h2>



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Customer journey</h4>



The hospitality customer journey covers both online and offline interactions. This makes it much harder to track than a complete online journey an e-commerce business might have.



In order to map out the full journey operators rely on <a href="https://stampede.ai/blog/5-common-data-integration-flaws-in-hospitality-tech">integrations to get access to more data points</a>. Even though well-known CRM providers offer a whole range of different integrations, they are mostly not hospitality related.



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Customer profiles</h4>



Customer profile management looks entirely different for B2B and B2C.&nbsp;



B2B contact management can be quite complex with associated companies, stakeholders involved, deals attached, etc. None of which is needed in the hospitality context.&nbsp;



What matters here is to build a single customer view. Such a 360° customer profile should include basic contact information but more importantly, store preferences and previous online and offline interactions.



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Reporting &amp; Analytics</h4>



Hospitality KPIs are quite unique compared to other industries. They are more focused on visit data and marketing ROI. For example, in-venue visits and retention rates but also table covers, loyalty or WiFi sign-ups. 



Contrary to generic CRMs, these can all be easily accessed in a hospitality-specific one and operators can use them to build their own reports. 



There might be the option to add them to generic ones, however, this will come with additional costs.



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">Marketing</h4>



Equipped with CRM insights marketers can create <a href="https://stampede.ai/blog/how-to-create-personalised-marketing-campaigns-with-your-crm">personalised and tailored campaigns</a> that bring customers back.



So integrated email &amp; SMS marketing is probably one of the most important CRM features for hospitality businesses. This also covers the option for setting up marketing automation. 



A CRM is meant to improve operational efficiency. The best time-saving marketing tools are without doubt <a href="https://stampede.ai/downloads/category/Email%20Templates">templates</a> and pre-build customer segments. However, they need to be relevant to the industry to be really effective.



For a quick overview, we’ve summarised the most distinctive differences in the table below:

As a hotel owner or operator, you know that improving the customer experience is essential to achieving revenue growth. But how can you make sure your customers have the best stay, from start to finish?&nbsp;



With advancements in artificial intelligence (AI), there is now a range of clever tools available to help you provide an unbeatable service and give your guests an exceptional stay.&nbsp;



In this blog post, we&#8217;ll take a closer look at 3 AI tools and how they can benefit your hotel operations.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-1-concierge-tasks">1. Concierge tasks</h2>



Imagine walking into a hotel and seamlessly being guided through the check-in process without having to wait in line. AI tools can massively speed up the process of check-in/out and overcome potential staff shortages. This prevents potential customer complaints from the beginning.



AI tools also come in handy to assist guests with planning their stay. Such as organising travel or event arrangements, making restaurant reservations or ordering room service.&nbsp;



What&#8217;s more, AI can gather customer insights and preferences to create a full customer profile. This information is then used to offer personalised recommendations tailored to each individual for a more enjoyable and memorable stay. The possibilities for using AI as a concierge are endless and new features are added continuously.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-2-ai-revenue-management">2. AI revenue management</h2>



Revenue management is crucial for maximising profits but is often a complicated, time-consuming and manual process. Hotels can now use AI tools to get an edge in the market.



By analysing historical data and taking into account external factors such as market fluctuations, third-party booking platforms, as well as global trends, AI systems can provide accurate forecasting. This allows operators to make smarter pricing decisions and <a href="https://stampede.ai/downloads/the-direct-booking-checklist">drive direct bookings</a>.



For example, they can set dynamic pricing based on demand and occupancy. This enables them to charge more for rooms during peak periods and less during off-peak periods. The result is a more balanced occupancy rate and more revenue overall.&nbsp;



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-3-sales-and-mice-travel">3. Sales and MICE travel</h2>



As business travel continues to be an essential aspect of the global economy, companies are constantly seeking ways to attract more clients in the MICE sector.



With the advancement of AI tools, hotels can now utilise this technology to analyse the market and find potential opportunities. This helps them to better approach potential partners and clients. On top, AI facilitates the management of group bookings by pulling all relevant contacts and company accounts into one place.

3 Clever AI Tools To Support Your Hotel Operations

There are some essential strategies that hospitality operators should implement to unlock the full potential of their Customer Relationship System (CRM).



In this article, we’ve collated 8 easy-to-implement <a href="https://stampede.ai/blog/how-to-create-a-hospitality-crm-strategy-that-drives-results">CRM strategy tips</a> for you to help you get started.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-1-proper-staff-onboarding">1. Proper staff onboarding</h2>



New hires should get standardised onboarding training, covering all CRM features. This way they are equipped with the necessary skills and knowledge to succeed in their roles from the beginning on.



Additionally, you should highlight how a CRM can be best used on a daily basis. It increases efficiency and lessens the overall workload.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-2-define-clear-goals">2. Define clear goals</h2>



As with every successful project, using a hospitality CRM should also include setting long-term goals.



The first step is to identify what you want to achieve. Then work backwards to determine what steps you need to take to get there. Goals should always be specific and measurable using your CRM data and relevant features.



Make sure to keep track of your progress along the way to determine if you need to adjust your marketing or sales strategy.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-3-make-use-of-crm-reports-and-analytics">3. Make use of CRM reports and analytics</h2>



Another CRM tip is reports and analytics features. They provide actionable insights into the performance of your business and help you identify trends to make improvements.&nbsp;



You can create customised report dashboards with metrics that matter most to your business, highlighting areas of strength and weakness. An overview dashboard also allows you to compare multiple venues in one glance.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">4. Integrate with other tech tools</h2>



Collate all your data sources into your CRM solution to streamline your operations and build a full 360° customer profile.&nbsp;



Rather than manually uploading spreadsheets, make sure to set up automations to save time and reduce errors.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-5-keep-your-crm-data-clean">5. Keep your CRM data clean</h2>



To maximise the CRM system, it’s absolutely necessary that hospitality operators keep their data clean and up to date all the time.



Make sure that customer profiles and mailing lists are regularly updated.



In addition, removing unengaged customers from the database helps to save time and money. It keeps your data relevant to who you are marketing to.&nbsp;



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-6-automate-as-much-as-possible">6. Automate as much as possible</h2>



By automating simple processes through your CRM, you can streamline your entire operation. But also free up time to focus on more strategic, high-level tasks.&nbsp;



For example, through <a href="https://stampede.ai/how-it-works/marketing">marketing automation</a> businesses can send personalised email and SMS messages on auto-pilot that drive repeat visits.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-7-use-customer-interaction-to-upsell">7. Use customer interaction to upsell</h2>



CRM data insights help operators to better understand customer preferences, buying habits, and pain points.&nbsp;



Armed with this knowledge, hospitality operators can offer customers tailored products or services based on their past interactions. This allows them to create a memorable customer experience.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-8-use-profile-tagging">8. Use profile tagging</h2>



Using the profile tagging feature in your CRM is another powerful tip. It helps organise your customer data into categories based on shared characteristics.



From this, you can then send out highly-targeted campaigns that are more effective, engaging, and likely to drive conversions.&nbsp;



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-summary">Summary&nbsp;</h2>



All of these actionable 8 CRM tips can be incredibly powerful in driving customer loyalty and revenue in your hospitality business.



There is no doubt that taking some time now to dive deep into understanding the power of a CRM-driven business will only pay dividends for years to come.

8 Quick Tips To Maximise Your Hospitality CRM

As a restaurant operator, you’re dealing with many moving parts. From customer service to marketing strategy and staffing. How do you make sure that all of this complexity is managed effectively, especially during busy periods?&nbsp;



You may benefit from incorporating AI tools into your everyday operations as they can help streamline processes, manage supply and demand more efficiently, and perform analysis for data-driven decisions. All whilst freeing up precious time to focus on other parts of the business.



Learn more about 3 AI tools specifically designed for restaurants that could boost your bottom line.&nbsp;



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-1-ai-powered-table-booking-platform">1. AI-powered table booking platform</h2>



With the advent of <a href="https://stampede.ai/get-bookings">table booking systems powered by AI</a>, managing reservations has become a much simpler process for restaurants.&nbsp;



For example, with the help of AI, smart table allocation is now possible. The algorithm reviews and suggests ways to optimise seating. Also taking any customer preferences into account. This way, operators make optimum use of their venue and resources and customers are happy.



AI tools can also highlight instant upsell opportunities for restaurant operators based on historic customer interactions and preferences. The data is pulled from your order and pay system. Using this information staff can make personalised recommendations that boost customer satisfaction.



A common issue for restaurants is <a href="https://stampede.ai/blog/10-quick-ways-to-prevent-lost-revenue-from-no-shows">no-shows</a>. AI can help predict and tag customers that might be at risk of cancelling or not showing up. It can also use this input to trigger automated booking reminders to be sent out to avoid those.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-2-ai-food-ordering">2. AI food ordering</h2>



AI food ordering has quickly become a popular solution for restaurants to help avoid long waiting times and overcome staff shortages.&nbsp;



With the use of self-serve kiosks or mobile apps, customers can quickly and easily order their meals without having to interact with staff members. An ordering app also allows customers to place their order in advance and have it ready and prepared upon arrival.&nbsp;



In addition, there is a new trend: <a href="https://voicebot.ai/2021/10/13/wendys-signs-with-google-cloud-to-bring-ai-and-voice-recognition-to-restaurant-chain/">AI voice ordering</a>. Some known restaurant chains have implemented this already to speed up their processes. Customers can order their food conveniently through voice commands.



To make the whole process even more personalised those tools can remember previous orders and preferences and can suggest them to the customer straight away.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-3-inventory-and-resource-management">3. Inventory and resource management</h2>



Nailing inventory and resource management can be tricky but is a crucial aspect of any successful restaurant. This part has become much easier with AI tools to hand.



AI predicts in real-time what customers might order based on historic data and determine which products might be in high demand. This data can be further enriched with market and seasonal trends.



This way sales forecasting and supply purchasing become much more accurate. What’s more, it helps to prevent overstock and high amounts of food waste. So, restaurants can cut unnecessary costs from poor inventory management.



With the help of AI tools, restaurants can also use data insights to identify top-selling products, popular order combinations as well as slow burners. Restaurant operators can use this information when they design a new menu.&nbsp;



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-summary">Summary</h2>



Restaurants will find that by adding AI tools to their tech stack they gain better control of their daily operations, streamline processes and improve finances.



There are some AI-powered tools restaurant operators should definitely consider, such as smart <a href="https://stampede.ai/blog/buyers-guide-11-key-features-your-table-booking-system-needs">table booking platforms</a> and food ordering apps or self-serve kiosks. They not only support staff but also provide customers with a more personalised experience and thus drive their loyalty.



In addition, data insights, customer behaviours and market trends are used to make informed sales predictions. AI can therefore improve inventory and resource management and help businesses to save costs.&nbsp;
