As the hospitality industry shifts towards data-driven engagement, Bookboost’s CDP and Multi-Channel CRM empower hotels to centralise guest data, personalise communication, and drive customer lifetime value (CLTV). With this funding, Bookboost will continue to advance its platform, ensuring that hotels can seamlessly connect and engage with guests across Email, SMS, Whatsapp and OTA messaging – all from a unified ecosystem.

Introducing Net Revenue v2.0: A New Era of Cost Allocation

The way hotels manage their acquisition costs is evolving. At Juyo, we believe that precision and flexibility in cost allocation can make all the difference in driving profitability. That’s why we’re excited to introduce Net Revenue 2.0, a significant upgrade to our Distribution Cost module.

Traditional cost allocation methods often lacked the flexibility needed to support modern revenue strategies. Our enhanced rules-based, multi-dimensional approach now provides hotels with the ability to optimize cost strategies in a way that aligns more accurately with their business objectives.

Juyo Analytics’ visualisation engine allocates the configured costs at the individual reservation level. This means that across all dimensions, also filtered and cross-filtered, you can see the net revenue contribution of each dimension (or dimension combination). As a result you will not just see (for example) which Country drives the highest NetADR, but understand under which conditions (Channel, Leadtime, Stay period, etc.) that specific country is driving high NetADR bookings. This is the intelligence required to target and acquire more of those type bookings to increase the overall NetADR of the hotel.
