Now that you know all the good, bad and ugly about AI-generated content from the <a href="https://stampede.ai/blog/ai-tools-for-marketers-an-insiders-view">first part of our AI series</a>, it’s time to go a little deeper.



For this, we had a closer look into two of the most popular and widely used AI tools: <a href="https://openai.com/blog/chatgpt/">ChatGPT</a> and <a href="https://www.jasper.ai/">Jasper</a>.



We’ve compared their main features and capabilities and also came up with ways to get the most out of both.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-chatgpt-vs-jasper-the-basics-compared">ChatGPT vs. Jasper &#8211; The Basics Compared</h2>



For now, ChatGPT is a free tool. Its popularity practically blew up overnight and it became the fastest tool to hit 100 million users.



Unfortunately, this led to quite a lot of downtime and users not being able to access it. This is why they are now offering a paid version for $20/m which guarantees full accessibility and also faster responses.



Jasper, on the other hand, is a paid tool.&nbsp;



They offer a 5-day free trial to give you an idea and after that, their prices start from $49/m with a 50,000-word limit. Bear in mind that the word limit refers to all words created, even if you decide to delete them.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">3 Things To Keep In Mind</h2>



Before you dive into the world of AI-generated content, there are some things to be aware of.



Here are the 3 main ones:



<ol class="wp-block-list">
<li>They generate original content pulled from the web &#8211; you need to do fact-checking!</li>



<li>They have finished their base training a couple of years ago, so some of their knowledge is not up to date</li>



<li>They remember previous input and allow for follow-up adjustments if needed</li>
</ol>



The example below from ChatGPT shows what happens if you ask for recent events:



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="294" src="https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Screenshot-2023-02-09-at-10.20.44-1024x294.png" alt="ChatGPT example" class="wp-image-22963" srcset="https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Screenshot-2023-02-09-at-10.20.44-1024x294.png 1024w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Screenshot-2023-02-09-at-10.20.44-300x86.png 300w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Screenshot-2023-02-09-at-10.20.44-768x220.png 768w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Screenshot-2023-02-09-at-10.20.44-1200x345.png 1200w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Screenshot-2023-02-09-at-10.20.44-150x43.png 150w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Screenshot-2023-02-09-at-10.20.44.png 1442w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



Is there a way to get around this?&nbsp;



The solution, according to the platforms, is to feed in any necessary information that might be missing to provide more context. Basically, teach it yourself.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Ways To Generate AI Content</h2>



The most notable difference between ChatGPT vs. Jasper lies in the way you can create content.



ChatGPT



ChatGPT only offers one way, a chat function, which is dialogue based. It follows a question-answer pattern where you simply put in your request to start a conversation.&nbsp;



It’s therefore very easy to use (once you’ve cracked the commands) and a good tool to get you started.



Jasper



Jasper, on the other hand, comes with a plethora of tools for content creation, i.e. chat, 50+ templates, documents, recipes, and workflows.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="661" src="https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Screenshot-2023-02-14-at-12.34.39-1024x661.png" alt="Jasper templates" class="wp-image-22962" srcset="https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Screenshot-2023-02-14-at-12.34.39-1024x661.png 1024w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Screenshot-2023-02-14-at-12.34.39-300x194.png 300w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Screenshot-2023-02-14-at-12.34.39-768x496.png 768w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Screenshot-2023-02-14-at-12.34.39-1536x992.png 1536w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Screenshot-2023-02-14-at-12.34.39-1200x775.png 1200w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Screenshot-2023-02-14-at-12.34.39-150x97.png 150w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Screenshot-2023-02-14-at-12.34.39.png 2028w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



This can be a bit overwhelming for first-time users with a lot of options to choose from. To help you better navigate around the platform, Jasper offers various live training sessions and a <a href="https://learn.jasper.ai/bootcamp/overview?_gl=1*6nj48j*_ga*MTY3NDQwNjgxMC4xNjc1MTU0NjQ0*_ga_D4P3CS8W5P*MTY3NjQ1Mzg1OS4xOS4xLjE2NzY0NTM4NjAuNTkuMC4w">bootcamp</a>. Which we’d recommend making use of.



Now, the main difference between their individual tools is the degree of guidance they provide.



For example, Recipes come with pre-set step-by-step instructions. You only need to fill in your own input where required. It’s a fast way to generate content and is also ideal to get a better feeling of how Jasper&#8217;s commands work.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="401" src="https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Screenshot-2023-02-09-at-13.34.23-1024x401.png" alt="Jasper recipes" class="wp-image-22964" srcset="https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Screenshot-2023-02-09-at-13.34.23-1024x401.png 1024w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Screenshot-2023-02-09-at-13.34.23-300x118.png 300w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Screenshot-2023-02-09-at-13.34.23-768x301.png 768w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Screenshot-2023-02-09-at-13.34.23-1536x602.png 1536w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Screenshot-2023-02-09-at-13.34.23-1200x470.png 1200w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Screenshot-2023-02-09-at-13.34.23-150x59.png 150w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Screenshot-2023-02-09-at-13.34.23.png 1542w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



The opposite can be found in their chat (same functionality as ChatGPT) or document option, which allows for much more freedom.&nbsp;



Workflows and templates are somewhere in between with a little guidance.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="730" src="https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Screenshot-2023-02-15-at-12.49.35-1024x730.png" alt="Jasper documents" class="wp-image-22965" srcset="https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Screenshot-2023-02-15-at-12.49.35-1024x730.png 1024w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Screenshot-2023-02-15-at-12.49.35-300x214.png 300w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Screenshot-2023-02-15-at-12.49.35-768x548.png 768w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Screenshot-2023-02-15-at-12.49.35-1536x1096.png 1536w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Screenshot-2023-02-15-at-12.49.35-1200x856.png 1200w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Screenshot-2023-02-15-at-12.49.35-150x107.png 150w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Screenshot-2023-02-15-at-12.49.35.png 1688w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



It’s best to give them all a try to understand their difference and when to use them.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">7 Tips For Higher Quality Output</h2>



To finish off, here are 7 easy tweaks you can do to your input to get the output you are actually looking for:



<ol class="wp-block-list">
<li>Upload your own content to teach it your unique writing style</li>



<li>Update input for each paragraph to avoid repetition</li>



<li>For creative output: use short sentences with few words</li>



<li>For more detailed output: include key facts, number of words and more information (see example below)</li>



<li>Guide the output: frame sections with headlines, subtitles, etc.</li>



<li>Use Jasper’s re-phrase tool for more variations</li>



<li>Play around with different tones of voices, use adjectives or individuals as reference</li>
</ol>



Detailed input example for the chat function:



As a technology writer please write a 500-word educational article using semantically relevant topics for &#8220;digital customer journeys in hospitality&#8221;, H2 and H3 subheadings with bullet points and relevant statistics, FAQ at the end. Use a catchy title. Suggest relevant resources (URL) to learn more about &#8220;digital customer journeys&#8221;



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">ChatGPT vs. Jasper &#8211; The Takeaway</h2>



The question that remains is: is it worth paying for an AI tool?&nbsp;



It depends on how you want to use it.&nbsp;



If you want to play around to understand how AI works then you should opt for the free ChatGPT version.&nbsp;



The same applies if you’re mainly looking for some content inspiration or subject line variations.



However, Jasper definitely provides much more flexibility for different business tasks in marketing and sales.



So, if you’re looking for ways to generate a wide variety of mainly longer-form content Jasper is the better option.

ChatGPT vs. Jasper: The Two Most Popular AI Tools Compared

Based on Stampede Founder, Patrick Clover’s, talk at Hospitality Tech Expo 2025. <a href="https://youtu.be/jyjiOIBbbjY?si=k-g_8JXqLr3NKwxa">Watch the full talk on Youtube</a>



AI is all the buzz but we need to cut through the noise to find what AI actually is, as it’s not what most people in the hospitality industry try to sell it as.



Many conversations I have with people about AI usually revolve around two main themes: the robots are coming, we’re all going to die, and it’s going to take all of our jobs, and the other is there’s this mysterious oracle that no-one can see, touch or feel and it’s going to solve everybody’s problems. I think both of those are incorrect and not useful in hospitality for positioning the actual role of AI.



So let’s discuss how we can use AI, what it is, and how we can apply it directly within hospitality to ultimately give your businesses the edge and make better daily decisions.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="576" src="https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Frame-3-min-1024x576.png" alt="" class="wp-image-23911" srcset="https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Frame-3-min-1024x576.png 1024w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Frame-3-min-300x169.png 300w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Frame-3-min-768x432.png 768w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Frame-3-min-1536x864.png 1536w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Frame-3-min-2048x1152.png 2048w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Frame-3-min-1200x675.png 1200w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Frame-3-min-150x84.png 150w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<h4 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-all-your-guest-engagement-tech-in-one-seamless-platform">All your guest engagement tech in one seamless platform</h4>



So I really believe that hospitality teams, and teams generally, don’t need more technology, we don’t need more tools. We need more connections with our customers. We need tools that are more hyper-connected. And when you have all of these systems working together, e.g. Wi-Fi, Bookings, Reviews, Loyalty, Payments, and CRM, you can finally start to see like what’s happening in your business.



You can start to get a gauge of what your guest journey looks like and the data that you’re collecting becomes really useful. Keep that in mind because the rest of this blog is about patterns and why I think AI is a really phenomenal pattern matcher and what that should mean for your business.



<h4 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-the-world-of-hype-challenging-the-myths">The world of hype: challenging the myths</h4>



Calling AI intelligent is really misleading because it isn’t conscious. It doesn’t understand like a human being. It’s statistics, probable outcomes, and pattern recognition that’s happening at scale. And that isn’t bad news.



That’s actually really good news because prediction is exactly what hospitality needs, to know who’s likely to book, who’s dropping off, when will demand spike, and when you should be holding back.



<h4 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-the-ordinary-world-of-hospitality">The ordinary world of hospitality</h4>



So, in the ordinary world of hospitality, it’s full of these rich patterns. We know that visit clusters all happen around a similar location at a similar time.



Booking volumes follow seasonal curves, so it shouldn’t be any surprise that towards Christmas time you’re getting a lot more big enquiries.



Wi-Fi and Payments tell a really key story about what’s happening with guest behaviour in your business.



Things like menu items, they spike at certain times.



You instinctively know that these patterns are what run hospitality. And that’s not to say that your instinct isn’t valuable, because it really is. So don’t throw away your instinct. Just know that there’s a way of scaling this that is really consistent and allows you to deliver this across 1 to 100 hundred venues without losing the essence of hospitality.



So, wouldn’t it be really great if you had a tool that could surface all of these patterns every day for every venue reliably? That’s really where I think that AI earns its keep. So I want to show you what that would look like in action.



<h4 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-in-action">In action</h4>



So this is what happens when you let the system do all the heavy lifting. Teams can start to describe their audience in plain English.



E.g. &#8216;Show me guests who order breakfast regularly&#8217; or &#8216;Show me first time visitors from last month&#8217;.



In seconds, the segment can be built and campaigns can be drafted. That’s hours of human work that’s just been reduced down to minutes and the win here isn’t just speed, it’s consistency.



Staff are spending less time using a variety of disparate tools and they’re spending more time delivering true hospitality &#8211; the thing that the guests actually notice.



But how should that change your day-to-day? Let’s explore the practical shifts that this will enable, in more detail.



If the system is connected to all of these things, it can start to spot guests with Birthdays coming up this week and it could automatically suggest a promotion to send out to those people.



It could queue you to politely respond to fresh reviews while the guests still care about your business. It keeps these workflows really tight and simple so that your team can focus on what actually matters. And I think this is the bridge from like “nice idea cool story bro” to &#8220;we need to be using this for every single shift”.



Once teams start using this and trusting the prediction, something really magical happens.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="576" src="https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Frame-6-min-1024x576.png" alt="" class="wp-image-23917" srcset="https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Frame-6-min-1024x576.png 1024w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Frame-6-min-300x169.png 300w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Frame-6-min-768x432.png 768w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Frame-6-min-1536x864.png 1536w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Frame-6-min-2048x1152.png 2048w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Frame-6-min-1200x675.png 1200w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Frame-6-min-150x84.png 150w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<h4 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-from-guesswork-to-precision">From guesswork to precision</h4>



So we move from guesswork and intuition to precision. So we stop hoping to be busy and we know when our peak times are and we can staff accordingly.



We stop blanketing customers with lots of random discounts and we target guests who’s behaviour suggests they will return.



We stop this one size fits all messaging and we send messages when the person is most likely to respond.



And precision, as far as I’m concerned, is actually really addictive because once you’ve felt it, there is just no going back at all.



So how does a system get this smart across so many different parts of the business? Well, that part is really simple because all it actually needs to do is match patterns.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="576" src="https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Frame-7-min-1024x576.png" alt="" class="wp-image-23921" srcset="https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Frame-7-min-1024x576.png 1024w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Frame-7-min-300x169.png 300w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Frame-7-min-768x432.png 768w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Frame-7-min-1536x864.png 1536w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Frame-7-min-2048x1152.png 2048w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Frame-7-min-1200x675.png 1200w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Frame-7-min-150x84.png 150w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<h4 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-trends-across-every-touch-point">Trends across every touch point</h4>



Like AI does not care if your input is a menu, email, booking flow, or staffing rota.



It just matches your patterns to the outcomes that you want to see. It recognises guest personas that tend to no-show, it sees dishes or drinks that correlates with poor reviews, it learns which menu items upsell best, and to who.



There’s no ego, no fatigue, just pattern matching at speed and at scale. And when you have that your culture actually can start to shift.



<h4 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-from-reactive-to-proactive">From reactive to proactive</h4>



You stop saying things like, “We wish we knew it was gonna be that busy” and you start saying things like, “There’s three big events this weekend and we are ready”.



You stop lamenting, “We’re not getting any big group enquiries anymore”, and you start repeating, “That promotion worked, let’s do it again but this time smarter”.



That’s the shift. You go from being reactive to&nbsp;proactive. And here’s the great part about it: you don’t need moonshots to win. Small steady gains really compound.



All you need to do is be 0.1% better than we were yesterday. It’s not about ripping out lots of things, turning up all the tables. It’s about small incremental gains.



<h4 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-even-small-gains-add-up">Even small gains add up</h4>



Hospitality runs on tight margins. You don’t need perfection, you just need AI to be useful. You need to be able to predict things like your supplier costs, whether they’re up or down, your quiet or busy spells, and your staff cover needs.



You need to be able to prepare, quickly update your rota, plan marketing, and get your team ready. You also have to prevent things like suppliers shortages, food waste and missed opportunities. Those small improvements every day, every shift, add up fast.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="576" src="https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Frame-10-min-1024x576.png" alt="" class="wp-image-23920" srcset="https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Frame-10-min-1024x576.png 1024w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Frame-10-min-300x169.png 300w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Frame-10-min-768x432.png 768w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Frame-10-min-1536x864.png 1536w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Frame-10-min-2048x1152.png 2048w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Frame-10-min-1200x675.png 1200w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Frame-10-min-150x84.png 150w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



<h4 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-final-thoughts">Final thoughts</h4>



So, in my opinion, I don’t think you need a robot waiter or a sentient concierge. 



You need a system that’s really tuned to your data, trained on your customers, and can spot what matters before you can.



That’s all AI is. It’s a great pattern matcher. And in hospitality, I think that’s your edge.

AI: It’s Not What You Think

A proven way to <a href="https://stampede.ai/how-it-works/wifi">build your customer mailing list with minimal effort is using your WiFi</a>. It works, as customers want to stay connected when they’re out and about.



However, some operators might have noticed a shift in customers’ behaviour lately.&nbsp;



With going out becoming more of a treat, customers seem to spend less time on their phones, and more time focusing on the moment with their family &amp; friends.&nbsp;



So, how can you encourage your customers to use your WiFi again to keep growing your mailing list?



<h4 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-increase-visibility">Increase Visibility</h4>



Back in the day, when ‘free WiFi’ was still a novelty, businesses used to have signs and posters in their venue to encourage customers to sign-up.



Those have disappeared with more and more venues offering WiFi and customers expecting it as a given.&nbsp;



Time for a little reminder.&nbsp;

3 Tools To Get More Customers On Your Mailing List

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.

A Quick Guide On First-Party Data Strategy For Hotels

Data from the <a href="https://www.ons.gov.uk/employmentandlabourmarket/peopleinwork/employmentandemployeetypes/articles/ishybridworkingheretostay/2022-05-23#:~:text=More%20than%20three%2Dquarters%20(78,had%20fewer%20distractions%20(53%25).">Office of National Statistics</a> suggest that the number of people who regularly work from home has doubled since pre-pandemic times.



As the novelty of working from home wears off, demand for public spaces that offer a social yet productive working environment will grow.



If you own a coffee shop with plenty of space then you are in a prime position to take advantage of this demand. You already have many pieces in place to set up a good coworking space.&nbsp;



With <a href="https://drinkycoffee.com/coffee-statistics/">coffee shop revenues still below pre-pandemic numbers</a>, this could be an excellent opportunity for coffee shop owners to recover and diversify their income.



Here we will go through the necessary steps to accommodate paid coworking customers in your coffee shop.



<h5 class="wp-block-heading">1. Assess Demand for Coworking Space</h5>



Before you plough time and money into setting up your coffee shop for coworking, you should first try to find out how likely it is people in your local area would be willing to pay to work at your premises.



There are a few ways of doing this. They include:



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Look online if there are any coworking spaces in your area. If there are some then it&#8217;s very likely that there is demand for these types of spaces in your local area.</li>
</ul>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Take note of how regularly people work at your coffee shop. Many of these people would be willing to pay a small fee to work there if you can provide a more productive space.</li>
</ul>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Put up a comments and suggestions box in your shop with a sign above it saying &#8211; “We are thinking of offering coworking with ergonomic furniture and high-speed internet. Would any of you be interested in this?” Check how many people have expressed interest over a four-week period</li>
</ul>



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>If you have some sort of online access to your customers (active social media account or <a href="https://stampede.ai/how-it-works/marketing">email list</a>) then simply ask your customers on there.</li>
</ul>



It&#8217;s really important that you get some sort of interest in coworking before you make any moves to implement it in your business.



Do not assume that a lack of competition in your local area means that you have found an underserved market. In ninety-nine per cent of cases, a lack of competition means a lack of demand.



<h5 class="wp-block-heading">2. Designating a Space for Coworking</h5>



Once you have decided that you are going to offer coworking at your premises, the next step is to decide which part of your coffee shop you are going to set up a coworking space. And how much of your premises will be designated for coworkers.



When it comes to deciding where in your shop you want to have your coworkers, you should remember that one of the biggest needs of working people is for their environment to be quiet.&nbsp;



Therefore you should try to select a space that is as far away from any of the noisiest areas of your shop as possible.&nbsp;



If you have the means to have a physical barrier between the coworking space and other areas of your shop (say an upstairs area, for example) then this is ideal.&nbsp;



It may also be worth investing in a sound system that allows you to exclude music from your designated coworking space while still having it piped into other areas of your premises.



You also need a dedicated space big enough to meet your demand from coworkers.



I’ve found that during working hours, about one-fifth of your customers will be coworkers. So try to dedicate around that proportion of your seated area to coworking.



<h5 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-3-deciding-on-pricing-and-terms">3. Deciding on Pricing and Terms</h5>



Coworking is usually either priced as an individual fee per day, or as a monthly fee that covers a certain number of hours per month.



You are also going to have to decide what is included in this fee. Are coworkers entitled to unlimited food and drinks as part of their fee, or will this be sold separately?



In my experience, the best way of pricing out coworking at a coffee shop is to offer a monthly fee for a certain number of hours. Allow one meal, unlimited drinks and a selection of unlimited snacks as part of this.



Offering free food and drinks as part of your terms gives you a real competitive advantage over coworking spaces. While many coworking spaces do offer complimentary snacks and drinks, these won’t be of the same quality as ones freshly prepared by you.



While you may not be able to offer meeting rooms and private phone booths at your coffee shops, your ability to offer superior food and drinks should make you more appealing to freelancers and solo workers.



When it comes to pricing, current rates (2022) for coworking tend to be around £75 &#8211; £100 for part-time (2-3 days a week) and £125 &#8211; £180 for full-time (5 days a week).



The main variable for this cost is location. So if you are based in London then it&#8217;s likely you will be at the top end of this scale.



Of course, you will have to experiment with pricing and find the sweet spot between profitability per head and demand.



<h5 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-4-getting-the-required-infrastructure-in-place">4. Getting the Required Infrastructure in Place</h5>



To have any chance of being competitive in the coworking market you will need to offer customers:



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Ergonomic padded chairs with armrests</li>



<li>Tables of a suitable height to work at&nbsp;</li>



<li>High-speed, reliable <a href="https://stampede.ai/how-it-works/wifi/">guest WiFi</a> that can handle multiple users at the same time</li>



<li>A quiet environment</li>



<li>A means of <a href="https://stampede.ai/how-it-works/marketing">communicating with existing</a> customers</li>



<li>Opening hours during regular office hours (and ideally longer)</li>
</ul>



Many coffee shops are unlikely to have the required table and chairs, or the internet.&nbsp;



It is imperative that you invest in these things before you offer coworking.&nbsp;



Offering a bad coworking experience due to insufficient infrastructure can damage your reputation and ruin your chances of being seen as a viable coworking option by local people going forward.



<h5 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-5-marketing-yourselves-as-a-coworking-space">5. Marketing Yourselves as a Coworking Space</h5>



In my experience, the best way of marketing yourself as a coworking space is to try and rank for the term: “coworking space in [your location]” on Google.



So long as you narrow this down to your really local area, say “coworking space in Hackney” rather than “coworking space in London”, then you have a decent chance of ranking due to a lack of competing coworking spaces in this area.



To optimise your website for this keyword, just do the following:



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Set up a dedicated page on your website for your coworking where you talk about your offering and terms. Make sure this is titled with your target keyword.</li>



<li>Add that you offer coworking in your business description and services in your Google My Business account</li>



<li>Add that you offer coworking on some areas of your website’s homepage</li>



<li>Look around if there are any online directories dedicated to coworking spaces and sign yourself up for these.</li>
</ul>



You will not rank for coworking-related keywords immediately. However, if you follow these steps you should be appearing in these searches within a couple of months.



Other ways that you can market yourself as a coworking space include:



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Having a sign outside your premises</li>



<li>Making social media posts about it and asking your followers to share it</li>



<li>Emailing existing customers on your email list</li>



<li>Taking out an advertisement in the local newspaper (this is always cheaper and more effective than you expect it to be)</li>
</ul>



<h5 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-final-thoughts">Final Thoughts</h5>



The rise of remote working after the pandemic has meant that the part-time coworking space market will certainly grow in the next few years.



Coffee shops are in a prime position to take advantage of this as they can set up a coworking space without core changes to their business operations. All they need are a few tweaks to be able to compete with (often overpriced) dedicated coworking spaces.



If you have a large premise, then this could be an excellent opportunity for you to increase and diversify your income.

How to Set Up a Coworking Space in Your Coffee Shop

Are you looking for ways to optimise your hospitality operations and make data-driven decisions that will grow your bottom line? If so, one of the most valuable tools to use for this is your CRM dashboard.



In this blog post, we&#8217;ll give tips on how to customise your CRM dashboard to make sure you get the most out of it.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-how-to-customise-your-crm-dashboard">How to customise your CRM dashboard</h2>



A well-tailored CRM dashboard can be a powerful tool for improving team productivity and accelerating growth.&nbsp;



To achieve this, start by mapping out what you need from your dashboard. What metrics are most important to your business? What information do you need at a glance?&nbsp;



Once you have a clear understanding of your requirements, get input from your team. What features or information do they find most helpful on a dashboard? This ensures that everyone&#8217;s needs are taken into account.&nbsp;



Finally, consider making use of templates to streamline the customisation process. Many <a href="https://stampede.ai/how-it-works/analytics">hospitality CRM platforms</a> come with pre-built dashboard templates that can be modified to fit your specific needs.&nbsp;



Taking time to customise your CRM dashboard can save you time in the long run and help ensure that you&#8217;re making data-driven decisions.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-set-up-personalised-goals">Set up personalised goals</h2>



It&#8217;s important to have a CRM dashboard that&#8217;s built around your specific needs in order to meet your sales and marketing goals.



By tailoring your goals to correspond with the metrics that are most significant to your business, you can quickly gauge your current situation.&nbsp;



For example, hospitality marketers want to focus on metrics such as tracking return in-venue visits, repeat bookings or marketing return on investment (ROI).



Make sure to limit your key performance indicators (KPIs) to the most important ones only. This way, you&#8217;ll be able to get an instant picture of your current situation and take the necessary steps to achieve your overall goals.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-make-your-dashboard-user-friendly">Make your dashboard user-friendly</h2>



The importance of a user-friendly CRM dashboard cannot be emphasised enough. It plays a crucial role in keeping your business operations running smoothly.&nbsp;



Imagine having to spend precious time trying to decipher complex data instead of using it to make informed decisions. This is where visuals and design come in.&nbsp;



Mix up the visuals and use different graphs. This helps you create a customised CRM dashboard that is not only easy to understand but also visually appealing. In just one glance, you should be able to analyse the data and extract the relevant insights.&nbsp;



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-gain-actionable-insights-from-your-crm-dashboard">Gain actionable insights from your CRM dashboard</h2>



Maximising the value of your hospitality CRM dashboard requires more than just accumulating data.



With selected filters applied to your reports, you can compare the performance of different metrics and KPIs side-by-side. This provides you with insights that guide your sales and marketing strategies moving forward.&nbsp;



You can, for example, compare data between your venues over a given time period to understand exactly how each location is performing and adjust your tactics accordingly.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-conclusion">Conclusion</h2>



Getting the most out of a CRM dashboard is key to success and should be part of your overall <a href="https://stampede.ai/blog/how-to-create-a-hospitality-crm-strategy-that-drives-results">CRM strategy</a>. Don&#8217;t settle for surface-level data, dive deeper with your dashboard to turn raw data into real results by customising your CRM.



From customising it to your individual needs, setting personalised goals, and ensuring that it is user-friendly. Taking these steps can help you gain actionable insights and make informed decisions.&nbsp;



You should always ensure that the CRM dashboard is constantly evolving with your business changes. This will ensure you are maximising output and have an ever-evolving game plan that yields tangible results.

Today we are launching our &#8220;Snap box&#8221;, a remotely managed device to provide the best in class captive portal solution. Using the latest standards outlined by Apple and Google utilizing the DCHP option 114 which enforced captive portal compliance and experience. 



<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-the-why">The Why</h3>



Running a captive portal is a must-have for all physical businesses, why? because it will deliver up to 75% of your guest traffic.



Not only this but it also provides a seriously rich dataset which tells you how long someone is in your venue, when they arrived and when they leave. 



If you are running a hotel it can also tell you which room a guest is staying in&#8230; 



So if 75% of your business comes from this data source, why does it still feel like almost all captive portals still SUCK, and why does it feel like that&#8217;s getting worse?



Guest Wi-Fi can be so powerful there are now umpteen companies out there who will do you a deal on a captive portal solution. The issue here is building a decent captive portal is really hard &#8211; In 2021 I wrote a love letter to building the worlds best captive portal &#8211; <a href="https://patrickclover.medium.com/how-to-build-the-worlds-best-captive-portal-feee1654fa8b">read here</a>. 



Captive portals have a superpower but it comes with a weak point. They give any operator the ability to track any customer within 6m of the device, but this has opened up quite a serious privacy issue.



While most operators make little use of this it is entirely possible. The main reason people can&#8217;t utilize it is that this stream of data (by design) is not connected to anything else in a business. It might get exported/imported into other systems on mass but you couldn&#8217;t use the data to say &#8220;&#8230;as soon as someone leaves the building ping them a message.&#8221;



The barrier to entry for selling captive portals is very low (given the market, supply of engineers and increasing demand). But the barrier to entry for desired user experience is very high, and has gotten higher. And because of Apple / Google&#8217;s privacy concerns, they have begun locking down the triggering of these pop-up screens. Which in the worst case will leave your guests with a broken-looking screen&#8230;



<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-enter-apple">Enter Apple</h3>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="576" src="https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/2048-1024x576.jpeg" alt="" class="wp-image-23594" srcset="https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/2048-1024x576.jpeg 1024w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/2048-300x169.jpeg 300w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/2048-768x432.jpeg 768w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/2048-1536x864.jpeg 1536w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/2048-1200x675.jpeg 1200w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/2048-150x84.jpeg 150w, https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/2048.jpeg 2048w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>



Apple has decided to do its thing and enforce operating system changes to help alleviate the privacy and experience concerns.



Apple released this spec entitled <a href="https://developer.apple.com/news/?id=q78sq5rv">&#8220;How to modernize your captive network&#8221; </a>back in 2020! Ages ago, right? Welcome to innovation in this space. Later in the year, this proposal was picked up by the IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force) &#8211; <a href="https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc8910">read more</a>. It was then implemented in the <a href="https://developer.android.com/about/versions/11/features/captive-portal">Release of Android 11</a>



This solution is truly the hallmark of <a href="https://www.apple.com/">Apple</a>. It can control when the popup should be seen, and how long the guest&#8217;s session should last and also has the ability to show the guest how much bandwidth they are allowed to consume &#8211; cool right?



Woohoo! A captive portal solution that is bulletproof, privacy first and guest experience-centric.



<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-the-implementation-problem">The Implementation Problem</h3>



The issue with the approach outlined by Apple is that it requires a robust network setup, including on-premise infrastructure. In practice, this means you will need.



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Custom domains </li>



<li>DDNS support </li>



<li>Localized SSL certificates </li>



<li>A HTTP Server and web proxy</li>



<li>Content caching</li>



<li>DHCP with support Option 114</li>
</ul>



Apple wants the network owners i.e. hospitality operators to own the networking stack for this new standard to work.



The problem faced now is that very few operators will have the correct equipment on site to support these changes or few will.



And in true Apple fashion, it looks to be mandating this in a future release of iOS.



Your captive portals will ultimately become unstable when this happens, and you may have already noticed an increase in customer complaints and downtime as a result.



<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-oh-snap">Oh, Snap!</h3>



<figure class="wp-block-video"><video autoplay loop muted src="https://website-backend.stampede.ai/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/mikrotik-provisioning-steps.mp4"></video><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Snap re-provisioning from factory reset</figcaption></figure>



This month, we have launched a hardware line called Snap which solves this problem.



This line of hardware can be remotely provisioned in your Stampede dashboard. Out of the box it will ship with all the features needed to run a best in class experience and adhere to Apple&#8217;s beautiful captive portal solution.



For guests, this will mean we can serve much richer content (like videos) and deliver zero-second latency performance to local devices.



As we have been providing more functionality &#8220;on the floor&#8221; it has become obvious we need tighter control of what&#8217;s happening in the building. This device will automatically have its functionality extended over time to support a next-generation digital hospitality experience.



Imagine using a table booking system like Stampede that was accessing its information via a Snap box and then relaying that onto an iPad at the front-of-house. Or running promotions in real time to guests who were connected to the Wi-Fi&#8230; under the hood this device can be programmed/re-programmed to bring any Stampede service closer to the customer.



To recap, it has built-in redundancy, lower operating costs and performance that&#8217;d make your eyes POP. And I really mean that &#8211; when you experience response times measured in sub (ms) the guest experience is magic.



The Snap box is a powerhouse, it packs as much power as a desktop PC. Its job? To provide the best possible guest experience with no compromises and no cowboy funny business.



It is future-proofed and will end up being the central hub for all serious hospitality operators.



We are building up a network of Stampede Snap installation partners across the UK who will be able to perfectly implement this solution, with recruitment beginning in Mid-August.

Up close and personal: Why WiFi might be the best way to direct marketing to your guests

The troubling news:&nbsp;72% of hospitality operators have noticed a dip in visitor frequency&nbsp;recently. But more importantly:&nbsp;59% have also observed an increase in spend per head!



<hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity"/>



While the frequency might go down, customers want to treat themselves whilst they’re out.



So, what’s the best way for hospitality operators to tackle this? Level up your&nbsp;upselling strategy!



Here are two simple techniques you can use to increase spend per head and table.



<h5 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-deploy-marketing-for-pre-visit-upselling">Deploy Marketing For Pre-Visit Upselling</h5>



There are many opportunities to make some additional sales before customers come to your venue.



Start with your&nbsp;booking confirmation email. Make sure to highlight any offers or special packages straight away. Give customers a sneak peek of what they might miss out on and leave them with an&nbsp;easy option to book any add-ons.



On top of that, send an automated SMS (or email) the day before or on the day of the booking. This message should focus on your promotions once again but this time&nbsp;create some urgency, i.e.&nbsp;&#8220;last chance to enjoy our …”, “you don’t want to miss our … special”.



<h5 class="wp-block-heading">2 Quick Win In-Venue Upselling Ideas</h5>



The biggest upselling opportunities present themselves once customers are actually at your venue.



Check out these two proven in-venue techniques that will help you increase spend per head:



<h6 class="wp-block-heading">1) Train your staff for at-the-table upselling</h6>



<ul class="wp-block-list"><li>Use cross-selling and offer pairing recommendations, i.e. drinks or sides</li><li>Make personal staff or customer-based recommendations &#8211;&nbsp;“I love our new …”, “One of our most popular …”</li><li>Try to upsell on high-margin items and suggest the larger option first</li><li>Highlight popular daily or seasonal menu specials</li><li>Make personalised recommendations based on previous visits &#8211;&nbsp;“Same … as usual?”</li><li>Let customers sample drinks</li><li>Offer desserts to go</li></ul>



<h6 class="wp-block-heading">2) Use digital upselling</h6>



The most effective in-venue upselling technique is to&nbsp;push your&nbsp;promotions directly to your customers&#8217; phones. Instead of relying solely on table displays which might not grab their attention.



This digital upselling can be done through a&nbsp;<a href="https://stampede.ai/how-it-works/marketing/#upsell" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">captive portal WiFi solution</a>. Once customers have joined your WiFi you can immediately reach out to them with automated marketing messages.



Using digital tools for upselling also helps you to&nbsp;compensate for any staff shortages and busier periods.

How To Sell More And Increase Spend Per Head With Upsell

Customer data is the key&nbsp;to feeding your marketing campaigns, driving repeat visits and increasing revenue. The more data and customer insights you can get, the bigger the knock-on effect.



There are many touch points along the digital and physical customer journey that allow hospitality businesses to collect data. But two stand out above the others. 



<h5 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-2-ways-to-collect-customer-data">2 ways to collect customer data</h5>



One popular data source is a&nbsp;<a href="https://stampede.ai/get-bookings/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">table booking system</a>. The data you get from those lets you to send reminders (reduce no-shows) and special offers in advance as a way to increase sales per booking.



Another common method is using a&nbsp;<a href="https://stampede.ai/how-it-works/wifi/#portal" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">captive portal solution</a>&nbsp;to gather data through Guest WiFi. The real-time, in-venue data brings huge potential to increase spend per head, i.e. through&nbsp;<a href="https://stampede.ai/how-it-works/marketing/#upsell" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">digital upselling</a>.



In both cases, customers can be contacted after their visit to further boost loyalty through personalised campaigns and offers.&nbsp;



No doubt, those two tools are good on their own and will help you grow your database and business. But when&nbsp;combined, they elevate your expansion&nbsp;to new heights.



<h5 class="wp-block-heading">The combined power of WiFi and Booking Data</h5>



The crux with booking data is that you only get data from the person that made the booking.



So what happens if you have a large group booking? You’re&nbsp;missing out on a big bunch of data&nbsp;and potential future business opportunities as you have no means to contact the rest of the party.



However, if you also opt for the captive portal you can gather the data of the entire booking party, once they sign up for your WiFi. An easy way to&nbsp;scale up your database from just one booking.&nbsp;



Even better, if both systems are integrated into one CRM. You can mix and match both sources to&nbsp;create high-converting campaigns&nbsp;and bring more customers back on a regular basis.



Here’re some examples of segmentation ideas using your booking and WiFi data insights.&nbsp;



<h5 class="wp-block-heading">4 clever segmentation ideas</h5>



1) Has booked but not been at the venue (cancellation):



-&gt; Win-back campaign with a special offer



2) Has been at the venue (WiFi) but not booked online yet (booking):



-&gt; Welcome or early-bird booking offers&nbsp;



3) Has been at venue (WiFi) and birthday coming up:



-&gt; Special birthday party booking offer



4) Regular booker/in-venue visitor (WiFi + booking):



-&gt; Bring your friends and get …% off

Introducing – Marketing Workflows

Summer’s in full swing, and that means packed patios, big bookings, and busier than ever shifts. If you’re in hospitality, you’re already thinking ahead: more footfall, smarter systems, fewer spreadsheets. 



We’ve got you covered.&nbsp;



From smoother enquiry handling to smart marketing workflows and new AI-powered review insights, here’s what’s fresh at Stampede this month &#8211; and how it helps you do more, with less. 



<h4 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-ditch-the-spreadsheets-say-hello-to-the-enquiry-pipeline">Ditch the Spreadsheets: Say Hello to the Enquiry Pipeline</h4>



Managing large group bookings shouldn’t feel like a full-time admin job. But for most venues? It does.&nbsp;



That’s why we’ve built something better: the new Enquiry Pipeline.&nbsp;



Think of it as your command centre for private hires, large tables and bespoke bookings. Full visibility from first enquiry to confirmed table &#8211; no manual copy-paste.



It’s seamlessly connected to your <a href="https://stampede.ai/get-bookings">Stampede bookings system</a>. That means less busywork for your team, more clarity and a whole lot more confidence.

Clicks are nice. But bookings, visits, and spend? That’s what drives growth.



Our new Marketing Workflows tool lets you build personalised journeys triggered by what guests actually do &#8211; not just what they open or scroll past. 



Want to target guests who haven’t returned in 30 days? Done. Automatically re-engage high-spenders after a visit? Easy.



The drag-and drop builder is made for busy marketerer (and non-marketers) alike. It&#8217;s a CRM that speaks your language.

SMS marketing campaigns are not only quick to set up but also come with higher customer response rates.



<hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity"/>



It’s common to use text messages to send automated booking confirmations and reminders. However, there are many more clever ways you can&nbsp;make SMS work harder for you.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-3-proven-sms-marketing-campaign-ideas">3 Proven SMS Marketing Campaign Ideas</h2>



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">1) Email follow-up</h4>



<a href="https://stampede.ai/blog/email-vs-sms-marketing-which-one-to-choose/?utm_source=zoho&amp;utm_medium=email" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">In the first part</a>&nbsp;of this series, we identified that by combining email and SMS marketing campaigns you get maximum results.



In general,&nbsp;SMS marketing is great as a follow-up&nbsp;to a previous email campaign. Here are some examples of how you can use them in tandem.



Flash promotions:



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Email content:&nbsp;Don’t miss our upcoming seasonal offers</li>



<li>SMS message: &#8216;Last chance, our offer is ending soon.’</li>
</ul>



Event early-bird bookings:



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Email content:&nbsp;Festive season event bookings are now open</li>



<li>SMS message:&nbsp;‘Bookings are coming in quickly for Xmas, secure your place early on and get % off.’</li>
</ul>



Last-minute event availabilities:



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Email content:&nbsp;Our popular pub quiz is back next Friday</li>



<li>SMS message:&nbsp;‘Didn’t get a space for our pub quiz tonight? You’re lucky, we have X spaces left, can we count you in?</li>
</ul>



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">2) Upsell</h4>



You can also trigger SMS marketing campaigns to be sent out once customers have booked a table as a way to&nbsp;upsell them in advance.



In these, you can highlight&nbsp;recommendations, i.e. promote a new menu,&nbsp; limited items or your happy hour.



Upsell SMS messages can also be used to&nbsp;promote your food/drink packages&nbsp;or other deals customers can book on top.



Tip &#8211; your call-to-action should allow customers to easily get in touch with you to book those options.



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">3)&nbsp;Survey request</h4>



Fact is, customers are more likely to leave a review when prompted. Combine this with the higher engagement rate of text messages, and&nbsp;SMS is the ideal tool to boost your online reviews.



Simply send customers an automated post-visit text. Ask them to review their experience and include a link to a feedback form or wherever you want your customers to rate you.



“Hey [name], how was your experience at [venue]? We’d love your feedback. Click here to leave a review [link]. Thank you, [company].”

3 Clever Ways To Use SMS Campaigns To Scale Up Your Marketing ROI [Updated 2023]

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;

<li>Unified platform equips hospitality teams to boost revenue, retention and efficiency</li>



<li>Stampede to provide a talk about AI for the hospitality sector that demystifies AI</li>
</ul>



London, UK, 5 August 2025 – &nbsp;<a href="https://stampede.ai/">Stampede</a>, a provider of unified guest engagement technology, will exhibit its solutions at <a href="https://www.hospitalitytechexpo.co.uk/">Hospitality Tech Expo</a>, ExCel London, 30 September – 1 October 2025 (Stand HT 112). From the first customer visit to lifelong loyalty, Stampede equips restaurants, pubs, bars and hotels with a platform that enables them to boost revenue, retention and efficiency from one seamless AI-enhanced platform. This includes marketing CRM, guest Wi-Fi, table booking management, reviews management, and digital loyalty software.



<a href="https://www.hospitalitytechexpo.co.uk/">The Hospitality Tech Expo</a> provides an opportunity for delegates to deepen their industry knowledge, while connecting with experts across the hospitality sector. It runs alongside six industry-leading events, and is the largest B2B event for hospitality industry growth.&nbsp;



In addition to exhibiting at Hospitality Tech Expo, Stampede’s Founder, Patrick Clover, will speak at the conference about artificial intelligence (AI). His presentation is titled: ‘AI. It’s not what you think’. It demystifies and challenges misconceptions about AI in hospitality. A short synopsis about his talk follows (date/time to be confirmed by the show organisers).



AI: It’s not what you think



AI isn’t what you think it is – and that’s exactly the point. This talk cuts through the noise to show how so-called ‘artificial intelligence’ is really just a smarter way to spot patterns in your data and turn them into sharper decisions: who’s likely to book, who’s dropping off, when to run a promo, and when to hold back. We’ll explore how pattern recognition is quietly powering better operations across hospitality – from anticipating guest behaviour and boosting covers, to cutting waste and improving loyalty. It’s not about replacing the personal touch; it’s about using the data you already have to make better decisions, faster.



Additionally, AI is widely misunderstood today. Popular culture paints it as either a villainous overlord or a near-magical oracle. But in reality, AI is neither. It’s not conscious, not creative in a human sense, and definitely not infallible. At its core, AI is a sophisticated pattern recognition tool trained on massive amounts of data to produce seemingly intelligent outcomes. It doesn’t “think” or “understand”, it predicts. And those predictions can be eerily accurate or hilariously wrong depending on the quality of the data and the context. Patrick challenges the myths and explores the real nature of AI. Points that he plans to cover during his talk include the following:



<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Why calling it “intelligent” is misleading</li>



<li>How it’s more about statistics than sentience</li>



<li>What it can actually do today – and what it can’t</li>



<li>How our assumptions about AI are shaping policy, ethics, and innovation – often in dangerous or unhelpful ways</li>



<li>The goal isn’t to dismiss AI, but to demystify it – to show how it works, where it’s useful, where it’s overhyped, and most importantly, how to think about it clearly.</li>
</ul>



Patrick Clover, Founder, Stampede says, “This event brings together some of the greatest minds in the UK hospitality industry. Many hospitality businesses are trading within a challenging economic environment. We look forward to meeting operators that would like to transform how they connect with their customers to boost revenue and drive long-term customer loyalty. Our AI-enhanced guest engagement platform is proven: we’re excited to demonstrate how Stampede equips hospitality businesses to develop a data-led sales strategy that works; supporting business growth, increasing loyal customers, and driving positive reviews.”&nbsp;

New month &#8211; brand new and exciting data source: say hello to <a href="https://www.usetoggle.com/">Toggle</a>.



We’re happy to announce our latest integration with their leading hospitality commerce platform.



By combining Stampede and Toggle, hospitality operators can turn their commerce data insights into powerful marketing campaigns. Which helps them to sell more and secure some extra revenue.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Who is Toggle?</h2>



Toggle offers hospitality operators an easy way to sell their gift cards, experiences or other retail products directly from their websites.



The Toggle webshop is fully customisable to allow for an in-brand customer experience. Operators can also fully control and adapt what they promote from a simple dashboard.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-key-toggle-integration-benefits">Key Toggle integration benefits</h2>



If you’re using Toggle, you can now automatically sync your online sales data into Stampede. This means a faster-growing and stronger mailing list, which is the foundation of customer retention and loyalty.



The enhanced customer data can be used for <a href="https://stampede.ai/how-it-works/marketing">targeted marketing</a> and/or SMS campaigns based on interactions with either Toggle or Stampede.



What’s more, by adding other Stampede features, such as <a href="https://stampede.ai/get-bookings">table bookings</a> or <a href="https://stampede.ai/how-it-works/wifi">guest WiFi</a>, you can level up your data for even more personalised marketing.



In addition, Stampede shows you detailed campaign ROI tracking. So operators know exactly when customers made another online purchase or came back to the venue.

New Data Source: Stampede x Toggle For More Repeat Customers

Online reviews can make or break a business. Plus, they are a major deciding factor for customers. However, it can be difficult and time-consuming for hospitality operators to manage their reviews on a daily basis.



This is when the newest technological advancements, such as AI work a treat. Those tools help businesses to stay on top of their online reputation by identifying patterns and common themes, supporting response handling and much more with incredible efficiency.



In this blog post, we explore the key benefits of AI-powered reviews management as well as different ways operators can utilise it.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-4-key-benefits-of-using-ai-in-reviews-management">4 Key benefits of using AI in reviews management</h2>



The use of AI in reviews management offers numerous benefits that improve decision-making and ultimately boost businesses.



Here are the 4 main benefits:



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">1. Time-saving and efficiency</h4>



With AI, reviews can be analysed in a fraction of the time it would take staff members to go through them. Therefore, operators can take quick action and turn unhappy customers around.



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">2. Consistency&nbsp;</h4>



AI also provides consistency as it takes a standardised, unbiased approach to review analysis. Compared to a manual spreadsheet analysis this is also less prone to errors.&nbsp;



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">3. Scalability&nbsp;</h4>



Scalability is another benefit, especially for bigger companies. AI can handle large volumes of reviews coming from different platforms in a short time.



<h4 class="wp-block-heading">4. Multiple languages</h4>



Lastly, AI can analyse reviews in multiple languages. This makes it an unmissable tool for companies operating internationally.



In this second part, we take a look at how AI tools can support and speed up review management for busy marketers. 



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-ai-sentiment-analysis">AI sentiment analysis</h2>



The manual sifting through reviews can prove to be a daunting task, which takes up valuable time and resources. This is where AI reviews sentiment analysis come in.



First, AI automates the analysis of written text and identifies keywords and tags and categorises them accordingly. It can also sort reviews by their overall sentiment into positive, neutral or negative categories.



In addition, AI can help highlight common themes and also present them visually so that they are available to staff at one glance.



With all this, operators can save time and quickly identify any issues that customers may be facing, such as slow service. So that operators understand where to focus their efforts and resources to improve their service and customer experience.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">AI-generated review responses</h2>



While all feedback is valuable, responding to each and every comment in a timely manner can be quite a challenge. Especially during peak season when the venue is busy.&nbsp;



But with AI-generated responses, businesses no longer have to worry about falling behind. By analysing the sentiment of each review, the algorithm is able to suggest a response that is both timely and appropriate.&nbsp;



And because hospitality operators can train the AI to use their unique tone of brand voice, responses will sound more personalised.&nbsp;



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-ai-reviews-generator">AI reviews generator</h2>



As technology continues to advance, AI-powered reviews generators are offering a new way for hospitality businesses to gather more customer feedback.



The <a href="https://stampede.ai/blog/how-to-get-maximum-value-from-customer-review-sentiments">written part of the reviews matters</a> more to business than the overall star rating. It’s where the real value and insight can be found from which they can make improvements.



Though it can be a challenge to ask customers to leave a more detailed review. With the help of AI, this process has become more efficient and time-saving for the customer.



AI tools analyse customer input based on provided keywords. From this, they can quickly generate a written review that uses common phrases. Additionally, they also perform spell- and grammar checks to make sure the response is clear and accurate.



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



Ultimately, AI-powered reviews management is a must-have add-on for hospitality operators that lets them take back control over their online reputation and drive customers through their door.&nbsp;



With features such as sentiment analysis and auto-generated responses, they can quickly respond to requests and solve any issues in a timely manner. This gives them the ability to <a href="https://stampede.ai/blog/part-2-how-to-win-back-unhappy-customers">win back dissatisfied customers</a> and turn them into loyal ones moving forward.
