Business Challenge | Fragmented Sales Ecosystem Limiting Growth Visibility

As the organization expanded across properties and customer segments, its sales and contract management processes became increasingly fragmented, leading to operational inefficiencies and limited visibility.

Key Challenges Included:
Siloed Sales Data Across Customer Segments

Sales data was siloed across multiple business units corporates, groups, travel agents, and individuals making it difficult to consolidate insights or track performance holistically.
Manual, Error-Prone Lead & Contract Lifecycle
Leads were captured manually, increasing the risk of duplication, errors, and delayed follow-ups. Yearly contracts were prone to inaccuracies, including multiple contacts mistakenly mapped to the same customer for the same property and time period.

Limited Visibility into Sales Outreach Effectiveness
Sales representatives followed a structured calling cadence (A-4, B-3, C-2, D-1), but lacked visibility into:

  • Outreach effectiveness
  • Missed vs. completed calls
  • Outcomes and next-best actions

Tracking budgets, actuals, and missed calls was cumbersome, limiting accountability and forecasting accuracy.

Operational Dependency on Disparate Systems (IDS Integration Gaps)
Event and operational data was captured in an external IDS system and manually synced into Salesforce, resulting in:

  • Redundant effort
  • Data delays
  • Increased risk of inconsistency

Complex Multi-Property Data & Revenue Management
With six hotels featuring varied room categories, banquets, and amenities, the organization needed a centralized master data repository to track:

  • Rooms and banquets
  • Amenities
  • Room Nights (RNs), ARR, and revenue by property
