What happens when event communication breaks down? Not only will that impact the venue employees and the event planner, but it can also significantly impact the satisfaction of the event attendees - and in a world where reputation is everything, that leads to problems to your bottom line. Here are 10 real-world examples of ways miscommunication between venue staff and event planners can lead to chaos.
Kipsu’s guest messaging and hotel operations software has proved time and time again that it is an effective resource across IHG properties for service recovery. Engagement between guests and staff, creating and resolving tickets based on guest requests, and keeping documentation of conversations, are very useful in rectifying current bad experiences and preventing them in the future.
Rectifying a bad experience can turn a one-timer into a regular and improve your customer retention, because righting a wrong builds trust. If your guest can trust that, in the event of a mess up, your staff will show up strong, that’s something to write home about.
