Where hotels lose bookings and hours

The phone competes with the guest in front of you.Every routine call pulls the desk away from the person who chose to show up.
A missed call can come back through a booking site.Then the same stay carries a commission of about 25 percent or more.
Group inquiries go cold.A wedding or team inquiry waits for a quote while the planner keeps shopping.
Every review answer is read by future guests.A slow or missing reply shows them how you treat the guests you already have.
