SUCCESS STORY

Kissimmee Guest Services

kissimmee-guest-services

Overview

 

Kissimmee Guest Services is a reputable attraction ticket reseller located in Celebration, Florida, with over two decades of experience in the industry since its establishment in 1997. Our portfolio comprises tickets to Walt Disney World, Universal Studios Orlando, SeaWorld Orlando, and a myriad of other notable Central Florida attractions. Our exceptional approach to hospitality and guest services is what sets us apart from other companies in the market. We take great pride in treating each and every guest with the utmost warmth and professionalism, offering them valuable insights on theme park navigation, cost-saving strategies, and optimal ticket usage, just as we would with our own family members.

 

Before Rezgo, our business faced a multitude of challenges that made our operations tedious and time-consuming. One of the most significant hurdles we faced was getting the correct ticket to the guest after purchase. It involved reviewing purchased tickets on our point of sale, going to a separate online ticket portal for the specific theme park, and activating the right ticket before sending it to the guest via email or regular mail. This complicated process was prone to errors, especially with theme parks having over 100 different types of tickets available for purchase. Needless to say, the last thing we wanted was to accidentally activate the wrong ticket and disappoint our guests.

 

Another challenge we faced was pricing the same ticket product differently across different channels. Being a provider of tickets through various platforms such as websites, hotel desks, and others, we needed to adjust prices based on location and platform. This required us to recreate each product with a slightly different name and price it differently, doubling and sometimes tripling our inventory and causing an accounting nightmare. Updating and changing prices were also a nightmare.
But our biggest challenge was handling date-based pricing from major theme parks. This meant daily changes in ticket prices based on season, availability, and other factors, which meant manually adjusting prices daily or even hourly. Managing these challenges required a lot of time and effort, and we nearly needed a full-time person to handle them.

 

Although we had systems in place to help with many of these struggles, they were very time consuming and each of them nearly required a full-time person to manage them.

 

Results

 

When we were researching ticketing software, we heard a lot of positive feedback about Rezgo from other people in our industry. We learned that Rezgo had previously worked with another Central Florida ticket reseller, who unfortunately had to pull out of the region due to COVID-19. From the first conversation we had with Rezgo, we knew that this was the company we wanted to work with. They took the time to listen to our struggles and needs and presented us with solutions to address them.

 

While there were a few initial areas where Rezgo fell short of our requirements, they quickly found ways to customize the platform to our needs. Their ability to adapt and provide tailored solutions has made them a unique partner to work with. Overall, we are grateful for the partnership we have with Rezgo and for their ongoing commitment to improving our operations.

 

Rezgo has had a profound impact on our business, transforming the way we operate in a multitude of ways.

One of the most significant benefits of Rezgo has been the ability to integrate directly with the ticketing systems of several major theme parks. Partnering with Rezgo to get this integration completed has saved us an incredible amount of time and eliminated the risk of activation errors. With Rezgo’s technical expertise and the ability to integrate with other ticketing software systems, we no longer have to worry about daily or hourly price changes, as our prices are automatically updated in real time.

 

Another major improvement that Rezgo has brought to our business is the ability to create custom Price Sheets that allow us to offer different pricing for each ticket based on the channel it is being sold on. This streamlined our inventory management and has saved us a significant amount of time.

 

Lastly, Rezgo’s white-labeling feature has allowed us to extend our reach to smaller ticket companies, providing them with the ability to offer our tickets to their customers. This has been instrumental in our growth over the past year, and we continue to expand our business with Rezgo’s support.

 

Overall, working with Rezgo has been a fantastic experience. Their customer care team is exceptional, their management team is first-rate, and their programming/dev team work miracles.

  • Ferry Company

    Doolin2Aran Ferries

    Doolin2Aran Ferries is a tourist ferry and boat trip service based in a little village on the west coast of Ireland. We provide comfortable eco-friendly sailings from Doolin to the nearby Aran Islands for a half-day or full-day, and to the world renown Cliffs of Moher for a short boat cruise, offering visitors a hugely rewarding Irish cultural experience. Our Cliffs Of Moher cruise gives access to the most spectacular views of the renowned Cliffs, away from crowds and traffic on land, with the best opportunities to see Puffins and the Sea Cave that featured in Harry Potter. As our business expanded, we invested in more vessels and to all 3 islands as well as to the cliffs. There were various different capacities on the vessels and sometimes even a different vessel with a different capacity making the return leg of a daytrip. There are various ways to sail, so there could be 32 different sailing options in 1 day! This made for a very complicated UX for our end user, and a lot of bookings ended up being taken over the phone or by several individual emails rather than a self-selection process on our website. Results From the outset, the Rezgo team took the time to learn what issues were important to us, to discover the major roadblocks and suggest solutions from their experience and knowledge of other businesses similar to ours around the world. We really felt that they were on our side and wanted us to succeed. The Rezgo software is very robust and easy to use and we immediately felt confident that it was a winner. The UX for the end customer improved beyond recognition and our online sales almost tripled in some periods, so that speaks volumes! Because the Rezgo backend dashboard is so user-friendly with customizable reports, even our less “techie” personnel felt confident in accessing data on-screen instantly. Rezgo has also given us the opportunity to expand our B2B business with easy 3rd party access for our larger tour operator clients.

  • River Safari Tours

    Waiatoto River Safari

    Waiatoto River Safari began in 1997. After selling the owner a plane and  flight training him, he in turn taught us to jet boat, and we purchased the business in 2013 . We’re a passionate local husband-and-wife team with a background of commercial flying in beautiful New Zealand. Our tours are unique. You come with us and learn about our lives and our amazing area, we give you access to extremely beautiful nature in a comfortable and easy fashion. You leave with it being the best experience you have had in NZ. Having come from 13 years of business in aviation, we knew we had to find a really good booking system for activities that worked well for clients as well as for us. In NZ, the choice was very limited and the main challenge was to find one that worked as an online diary and calendar and could also let the world know we were here and ready to be booked online. Rezgo was our choice as it was cutting edge at that time because of its functionality for both front end and back end use. The cost to us was realistic, too, unlike other alternatives at that time. Results Rezgo allowed us to be seen on an international scale and also provide succinct online booking from our website that could also be booked on a mobile phone. Back then, this was a relatively new thing for activity providers, especially smaller ones due to high cost of what was on the current market here in NZ. One of the most important feature of Rezgo for us would have to be the customer service, which has always been top notch. Fast response, always ready to help. Also, Rezgo’s features are always advancing and keeping up with current technology. We especially like the payment gateway options and the ongoing commitment to teaming up with big agencies overseas like Viator.
