Why Hotels Choose Customer Update & Notification Calls

{"faqs":[{"answer":"Cancellation rates on OTA bookings range from 18% to 42%, and no-shows commonly run 1–5%. Our Appointment & Event Reminder campaigns call guests in same-day, day-before, or multi-touch windows to confirm arrivals, and every outcome — confirmed, unreachable, or cancelled — is dispositioned and routed back to your team so you can act on unsold inventory early.","question":"How do notification calls help reduce hotel no-shows and last-minute cancellations?"},{"answer":"Yes, provided the list is approved, permissioned, or reviewed. We check list source and consent records before any campaign launches, and we tell you plainly if the list will not support the campaign — before you spend anything. Bought lists without clear permission records are flagged and, in most cases, declined.","question":"Can you call our guest list if we pulled it from our PMS and OTA channels?"},{"answer":"AI-generated voices are treated as artificial voices under the TCPA, so prior express consent is required and we verify it during the list review. Every call includes AI disclosure — recipients can ask if the call is AI-assisted, request a human, or opt out. We honor state-specific quiet hours, keyword opt-outs like STOP and REVOKE, and DNC requests across all campaigns.","question":"Are AI guest calls compliant with TCPA and state calling rules?"},{"answer":"Most campaigns move from the initial review to launch once you approve the script, disclosure, and escalation path. The process is six steps: campaign review, list and consent review, connecting your systems, script approval, launch and monitoring, and outcome routing. You see the full quote before approving — the first campaign review is free.","question":"How long does it take to launch a guest notification campaign?"},{"answer":"We run managed outbound campaigns for you — you buy campaigns, not seats or software. There's no per-seat charge, no platform bill, and no minimums you didn't choose; calling starts at 9¢ per connected minute with the rate locked for the campaign. Outcomes route back into the CRM and scheduling tools you already run, with named disposition reports rather than vague activity metrics.","question":"How is this different from a hotel phone answering service or adding messaging software?"}],"steps":[{"step":"1","title":"Plan Your Campaign","gradient":"from-orange-500 to-red-500","description":"Start with the goal — what should each guest call accomplish?
