Introducing Invites

Invite guests to join your room block — easy, free, and paperless

Once you’ve secured a room block, the next step is to get the word out and fill your rooms before the group rates expire. But what’s the best way to do this?

In the past, you might’ve pounded out an email to all of your guests…meh. Or maybe you would’ve designed, printed, and mailed out hotel accommodation cards… . both time consuming and expensive.

Srsly?

Today, we’re excited to announce the launch of Invites — a new way to invite guests to join your room block.

Here’s how it works:

  1. Enter the email addresses of your guests
  2. Customize your message
  3. Hit send

That’s it. Easy!


Guests receive their Invite with a clear call-to-action and a link to your Roomblocker reservations page. They can easily browse through hotel pictures, view group rates, and book their stay. No more asking guests to call in their reservations or sending them to a clunky hotel website.

As rooms fill up, you’ll be able to keep track of who joined and how many rooms you have left (we’ll feature this in another post coming soon).

Invites are the most effective and convenient way for guests to join your room block.

“Please join our room block…”

If you’re still not convinced why Invites are awesome, here’s 5 reasons why you should be excited:

  • Beat the deadline — Help your guests secure the group rate and book their stay before the cut-off date.
  • Avoid penalties — Avoid potential attrition penalties from hotels by filling up your rooms the most effective way.
  • Save money, be green— Avoid printing and mailing out costly accommodation cards. Because Earth.
  • Save time — The last thing you want to do is draft up an email, buy more stationary and send it out to all your guests. Ain’t nobody got time for that.
  • Spread the word — Once your room block is booked, get the word out to your guests so they can plan their travel accordingly.

Invites are an easy, free, and paperless way to help fill your room block while giving your guests the best possible experience.
