3 tools that will increase your centre's revenue this season

by Rita Costa

As peak season winds down, preparing for a potential dip in bookings is crucial. However, the off-season presents a strategic opportunity to utilise tools that maintain a steady cash flow and pave the way for year-round success. In this post, we'll explore three essential tools that can be game-changers for your activity centre throughout the year, and especially during slower months.

1. Vouchers: Prepaid experiences for a steady cash flow

Encourage guests to purchase vouchers during the off-season to ensure a consistent revenue stream. Vouchers allow customers to buy now and schedule adventures later, providing a financial boost when bookings are lighter. Consider special package deals to entice customers into investing in future visits, fostering anticipation and loyalty.

2. Memberships: Transforming visitors into enthusiastic repeat customers

Introduce membership programs to turn one-time visitors into repeat customers. Exclusive perks such as discounted rates, priority booking, and members-only events incentivise sign-ups, generating recurring revenue and building a sense of community. During the off-season, focus on highlighting the long-term value of memberships to encourage year-round commitment.

3. Discounts: Strategic incentives for increased bookings

Craft well-timed promotions and discounts to attract new visitors and retain existing ones. Limited-time promotions or off-peak discounts can fill empty slots and keep your team engaged. Collaborate with local businesses for cross-promotions or offer group discounts to encourage larger bookings. Thoughtfully designed promotions turn the off-season into an opportunity to reach new audiences and maintain excitement.
