Benefits of Using Travel Agency CRM

Mar 6, 2020

Travel agency business is growing at a rapid pace. But with rapid growth arises complexities and challenges of running the travel agency business successfully. Every traveler is unique, has his/her own preferences. This preference category is not homogeneous. This category ranges from holiday destination to food, from mode of transportation to hotel bookings and so on.

So, where do you focus? As a travel agent your number one priority is customer experience. But to provide such an experience you need to collect and organize client details. This will ensure a loyal client base.

Now if you wish to continue with your travel agency business and reap profits out of it then you must again pay attention to every little detail about your clients.

Apart from handling clients you have other important responsibilities as well which will keep you ahead of your competitors.

  • Organizing travel plans, make itineraries
  • Making the bookings
  • Finding new holiday destinations

All the above responsibilities might give you many sleepless nights and keep you on toes!

But the point is if you are still using archaic methods of documentation such as Word, emails, excel sheets, docs etc then it won’t take you much time to start losing business opportunities.

Do not be scared!

Here are some solutions which can help you fuel your travel agency business using the industry specific Travel Agency CRM.

Efficient management of inquiries and lead capturing

You can get inquiries via website and landing pages using Travel Agency CRM directly into your CRM. Then you can distribute leads among your teammates.

This division of labour ensures better lead handling and increases the efficiency of all your co-workers. The more efficient you are in responding to the inquiries and offering relevant solutions, the more the opportunities you have of converting the leads to customers.

Easy automation of tasks

We humans are prone to errors. It is very natural for us to commit mistakes. In a day probably you get 100 inquiry calls, emails. But if you are unable to get back to the inquiries and forget about them you are probably putting your reputation at stake and risking business opportunities. Prospective customers as well as customers expect shorter response time. As a Travel agent you might have to focus on selling your products as well as enriching long term customer relationship.

With the Travel Agency CRM you can easily automate actions. You can also send predefined Email Templates (acknowledgement email, itinerary, alert emails etc), you can create follow-up tasks for yourself and your colleagues as well, update fields (“lead status” to “contacted”) just in one click.

Such automation is time saving and efficient.

For example, suppose you are conducting a trip to Dubai, then you might want to send a list of do’s and don’ts to all the passengers. After that you can go ahead and create an email template and send this to all the trip specific passengers. You can automate this task as well.

Quick generation of invoice and vouchers

You can create beautiful Quote templates using our tailored Travel Agency CRM. The Quotes can be sent straight away to your clients. After the quotation is accepted, it can be converted easily to an invoice by just one click and can be sent to your clients through emails from the CRM system itself.

Effortless management of all your contacts

You can keep records of the entire customer journey using Travel Agency CRM. Track all passengers travelling in a trip and you can categorize them as who is the “primary contact” person from a group and who are the “guests”.
