Smart travel management software makes the life of a retreat planner less stressful and helps you save time by applying automation, so you can focus on delivering amazing experiences and growing your business.

With that in mind, this month the YouLi team has delivered “PACKAGES & INVENTORY” — an amazingly effective way to optimize your booking process that not only increases your total profit, but also makes onboarding your travelers faster and easier.

A few scenarios when you will benefit from adding multiple packages to your group trip or retreat:

  • You offer Single Supplement, or as some planners call it a Private Room Upgrade
  • Your booking price depends on the room view
  • You need to manage room inventory
  • You want to set MAX group size
  • You require MIN group size for a booking
  • You offer early bird discounts
  • You offer private packages or member’s discounts

Let’s say you booked 10 rooms for your group event: 6 twin shares, and 4 private rooms.

How do you set up the registration page to ensure full occupancy and avoid overbooking?

Now you can add a new package, define the number of rooms, add tasks, set up deadlines — and your automation is ready to go. All in one! This is how YouLi makes group travel easy!

It is useful to know, that the spot on the trip is not booked until deposit is paid. That means you get to collect expressions of interest and grow your email list for the future trips, while YouLi platform automatically lets registered participants know how many open spots are left.
