Some of the benefits of the Anytime & Touch Stay integration
- You can be more hands-off and save time by introducing more automation. If you use the integration, your guests will receive a personal link to the guidebook rather than a generic link in your outgoing booking-related emails. This means you will be able to see the interaction on a guest by guest basis, rather than looking at all views of your digital guidebook by everyone who has ever had the link.
- The link to your guidebook is sent out automatically from the Touch Stay messaging system Memo to your guest, and after that, they will receive a series of emails and/or texts from the Touch Stay platform as built out by you.
- These are included in the Touch Stay package, they do not cost you extra.
- If you use Touch Stay, you might want to extend your use of Touch Stay to communicate using these features, giving you choice.
- Don't double up! You will save money if you use the Touch Stay text messaging, for example, as you have to pay for texting with Anytime using a different integration partner, Firetext.
- You will still use Anytime email templates around the booking management and deposit/payment comms, but you can choose to use Touch Stay to tell your guest more about your property/site, facilities and all the restaurants, bars, cafes and attractions in the surrounding area.
- Your guests will be happier as they love to interact on the move with their Touch Stay guide
