How to Turn Tourism Trade Fair Contacts Into Real Bookings?

Tourism trade fairs create valuable connections between hotels and travel agents—but turning those contacts into ongoing business relationships can be difficult. HEBERI helps transform those introductions into active partnerships. Here is how.
 

HEBERI for Travel Agents and Hotels

Travel agents are very crucial partners for tour operators. They find and supply clients to them and fill the tour operator's charter flights.
But the same tour operator does everything they can to prevent those travel agents from meeting hotels directly. The only exception is tourism trade fairs.
Travel agents in clients' home countries supply clients to both tour operators and eventually to hotels.
Travel agents play a decisive role in the hotel choices made by their clients. They meet travelers face-to-face, understand their needs, and often influence where they stay.
At the same time, hotels compete to attract those same clients. This is why hoteliers attend tourism trade fairs, meet those travel agents. And ask them to recommend their properties.

Tourism trade fairs are a great way to meet travel agents and build new connections. But exchanging business cards and receiving promises to recommend your hotel does not always lead to bookings.

HEBERI creates a direct digital connection between:

-Travel agents in tourists’ home countries and
-Hotels and organizers offering excursions and activities in holiday destinations

HEBERI for Hotels:

With HEBERI, hotels and excursion organizers at every holiday destination can:

-Connect with travel agents in target countries
-Promote their property whenever they choose
-Use ready-made marketing templates
-Offer incentives to travel agents who recommend and prioritize their hotel
-Maintain business relationships beyond the trade fair

This enables hotels to continue their marketing efforts long after the event has ended. It also enable everyone to reach out to tourist supplying agents.

HEBERI for Travel Agents:

With HEBERI, travel agents can:

-Discover hotels and destination services directly
-Compare offers from participating hotels, excursion organizers
-Recommend suitable properties to their clients
-Receive incentives from hotels
-Book optional excursions for their clients at any destination that his client travel and earn commissions from eligible excursion bookings

HEBERI: More than a tourism trade fair!

HEBERI does not replace tourism trade fairs. It enhances their results. Instead of allowing valuable contacts to become forgotten business cards, HEBERI helps hotels and travel agents continue communicating, promoting services, and generating bookings through one online platform.

How to get started?

To benefit from HEBERI, each user should:

1.Sign up for the appropriate account type.
2.Activate the account.
3.Hotels should register their property.
4.Add at least one room and set its price.
5.Set your offer for travel agents for reservations 
6.Make the hotel available ONLINE.

Once an agent makes a booking via an authorized tour operator, he/she should make another via  HEBERI. (Hotel bookings via HEBERI are only for predefined incentive payments. They are  not to be charged to the client or the tour operator.)

When you receive such a booking, approve it within 24 hours. Then the system will calculate your incentive payment based on your room price, predefined offer rate, and reservation duration. You will need to pay that predefined incentive from your dashboard using the PayPal payment system. Payment can be made from a PayPal account, a credit card that is linked to a PayPal account, or using credit card details directly.

Payment is sent directly to the travel agent's PayPal account that made the booking.
