Automation is the name of the game in vacation rental property management, which is why we’re so excited to introduce you to our newest integration partner: Besty AI.
An AI-powered automation tool, Besty AI takes all the work out of guest communications and upselling.
What is Besty AI?
We consider Besty AI the default automation tool for guest communications and upselling. Its AI-powered guest messaging, retargeting, and inquiry follow-ups both boost conversions and save you significant time. What’s more, Besty AI finds and carries out upsell opportunities all on its own, keeps tabs on your customers’ moods, and provides detailed analytics.
But to really understand the power of Besty AI, you have to consider the specific tasks it can take off your plate—and the many ways in which it can autonomously generate additional revenue for you.
On that note, keep reading to learn more about the benefits of Besty AI!
What benefits does Besty AI provide?
Streamline your guest communications
Responding to guest messages in a timely and professional manner is key to maintaining a positive guest experience. But who has the time?
Well, Besty AI does.
With Besty AI’s AI-powered guest messaging, you can ensure instant responses to every guest message. Options to remain in draft mode (so you can make edits to messages before sending) or put messaging on autopilot ensure you’re always in control.
Besty also augments your Lodgify inbox with AI, integrating directly with your PMS unified inbox. With Besty’s chrome extension, you’ll get instant drafts, guest sentiment scores, AI conversation summaries, and more, all without learning to use a third party tool (see image below).
What’s more, Besty AI is:
- On time—Choose how quickly you’d like Besty AI to respond.
- On brand—Besty reads through all your past conversations and tracks edits you make to messages to understand your brand voice and how you interact with guests.
- Intuitive—Besty AI knows what it can and cannot do. If Besty isn’t 100% confident in its response, it will simply notify your team.
- Multilingual—Did we mention that Besty AI can speak any language?
On top of all of this, Besty AI can track your messaging usage and response times to give you a real-time view into its—and your team’s—performance.
The benefits here are obvious, but if you need specifics, Besty AI has seen a 98% reduction in response time for its users, which translates to a reduction in operating costs as well.
Upsell with ease
With Besty AI, upselling doesn’t have to take extra effort or time. Besty puts your upselling on autopilot to help you generate additional revenue effortlessly.
For example, Besty AI can:
- Reach out to guests with offers to help you fill gap and orphan nights.
- Offer past guests incentives for repeat stays.
- Let guests know when early check-in is available.
- Keep tabs on guest inquiries that expire and reach out to win them back.
It’s no wonder that Besty users have seen more than $1,000 in additional monthly revenue and a 2% average increase in monthly occupancy!
Streamline your operations
But Besty’s benefits don’t end with AI messaging and upsells. Besty AI also offers AI-powered operational tools to further lighten your load, including:
- Sentiment dashboard: Get real-time insights into the mood of all your current and future guests, based on an analysis of all their conversations, so you can tailor your interactions accordingly.
- Hyper-personalized review responses (coming soon): Besty AI will create personal responses for each and every review guests leave. Choose to put review responses on autopilot or draft mode so you can review and approve them before posting.
- Task detection (coming soon): Soon, Besty AI will even be able to automatically detect tasks from messages and reviews and then assign them to your team.
And this is just the beginning—Besty AI will be releasing a full suite of AI-powered automations soon!
How much does Besty AI cost?
You can enjoy the ease of Besty’s automation tools for as little as $12/listing (for the first 10 listings). Pricing gets even cheaper after your 10th listing, making it affordable to use Besty AI at scale.
Besty AI also offers a free trial so you can try out all its features before committing. Sign up now to try it out for yourself!
Integrating Lodgify with Besty AI
