Class 14 + 15/03...Your Mission

We have moved from HIS - Hotel Information Systems - to HIS - Hotel Intelligence Solutions by virtue of our exploration of online distribution. We have briefly viewed TravelClick's RateVIEW solution...you should 'Take a Tour' and view the Sample Report. In addition to rate comparisions, Hoteliers need to manage online and offline channels. Travel Click, among others offer web based channel management tools.

So your mission is to research online:

• Online rate comparision tools
• Channel management tool

Link to the selected vendor - explain how these tools help hoteliers build business from online sources. (This is NOT a description of how the tools work but how managers apply them)

Please post in your blog by 12/03.
