ROI & COMMERCIAL CONTRIBUTION

Not “what did we spend?” — “what result did it produce?”

Digital campaigns, field activities and shared marketing costs are evaluated with lead, booking and revenue contribution when suitable source links exist. Data accuracy principle: ROI, ROAS, booking and revenue contribution are shown as definite results only when related sources and attribution rules are defined. Missing links are clearly labeled as estimate or scenario.

FIELD INTELLIGENCE

Turn every meeting into commercial memory. Turn field comments into market signals.

Agency visits, tour-operator meetings, fair conversations and field activities are managed with participants, outcomes, open follow-ups, commercial potential and budget impact. Field work becomes a traceable commercial process — not a calendar leftover. “Demand for family rooms is rising in the relevant market. Price perception is positive; however more flexible child policy and additional sales support for certain periods are expected. A follow-up meeting should be planned.” Public product principle: the system shows suggested signals from meeting notes; it does not create commercial records, budget decisions or automatic actions without user confirmation.

01

Activity

Fair, roadshow, sales call, agency visit or operator meeting. Structured record with activity type, commercial party, market context and related property.

02

Meeting Outcome

Participants, topic, relationship status and agreed headlines. Commercial context with Watch · Follow Up · Proposal · Opportunity · Close outcomes.

03

06

Institutional record

Meeting and follow-up info moves from personal notes to institutional commercial record. Activity cost, meeting outcome and tracked potential stay in the same context; which event and relationship types to replan becomes visible.
