Understanding hoteliers’ performance across communication channels
Travelers decided it was time to get out into the world again in 2022. The World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC) even predicts that GDP from travel will reach 2019 levels by the end of 2023. And hoteliers have risen to the occasion.
By leveraging various communication channels — email, text messaging, voice, and web — hotels and hotel groups engaged with guests at every stage of their journeys.

Data methodology
This year’s report contains data collected through our solutions from January 2022 through December 2022. This includes information from more than 5 million calls, more than 655 million emails, more than 19 million text messages, and nearly 30 million guest reviews. The main geographical regions (NAM, LATAM, EMEA, and APAC) include countries where there are customers leveraging Revinate’s solutions.
Countries with too small of a footprint to provide meaningful data were excluded from this analysis. And note that Revinate Ivy is used by a relatively small number of countries at this time. So, most of the text messaging data is centered around NAM.
