FAIRFIELD, N.J., Nov. 2 NJ-GuestCentricOnline
FAIRFIELD, N.J., Nov. 2 /PRNewswire/ -- (http://www.myprgenie.com) -- Patti's Inn and Suites, an independent property of 59 rooms located in Kentucky, was looking for online solutions to provide exceptional services for demanding travelers and increase online business. After reviewing all options, GuestCentric (http://www.guestcentric.com) was the only vendor that could deliver a top-notch solution in a short time frame and at reasonable prices.
"To be able to have online booking was a major deal for our property because our old website did not offer online booking. To get a booking engine that engages demanding new travelers we knew we could not go for the cheapest booking engine out there. GuestCentric came out as the clear value winner, as they provide the best booking engine in the industry at a price that a 59-room budget property can afford," said Ann Martin, Patti's Inn and Suites' Manager.
GuestCentric designed a new professional looking website in addition to providing innovative booking engine with its Rates+Real-time Availability calendar. Despite the bad economic environment and over a period of 4 months the property created very successful marketing campaigns that helped to rank first in Google organic search. This resulted on an increase in the unique visitors by 370% and an increase in the number of direct online bookings by 500%.
"With my previous website I had to call someone to make the changes, the information could take up to 3 weeks to change and every change had a cost," continued Ann Martin. "With GuestCentric I now have complete control over my website and I am able to change the text freely, upload pictures, change pricing and create special offers. Selecting GuestCentric is one of the best decisions I made in 2009."
