Online pre-booking opens new doors for car park operators

Car park owners and operators visiting Parkex International 2006 will today get the opportunity to learn how they can maximise sales and revenue from their parking operations. Matthew Hare, Managing Director of ts.com Ltd, will talk to operators about the benefits of using an integrated online solution to offer reliable and convenient pre-booking services to their customers, help increase business efficiency and drive revenues. The seminar will take place at the Parkex Theatre on Thursday 27th April at 2pm.

ts.com is a leading provider of parking solutions to the UK and Europe. The company's Internet-delivered advance booking system ticketingsolutions integrates with access control equipment from APT SkiData, Zeag and Scheidt & Bachmann to provide a complete ticketless parking service to clients and end-users.

ticketingsolutions is used by Amsterdam Airport Schiphol, Peel Airports Group, EuroPark, Central Parking System and Earls Court & Olympia to help them identify new revenue streams, reduce administration and costs, and streamline their operations management.

Parking spaces can be pre-booked by customers directly through the client's website or through a call centre, and by consolidators, trade partners and agents. Comprehensive reporting is available on all these sales channels to enable real-time monitoring of bookings and simplified financial reconciliation for operators.

"Consumer demand for convenient, reliable and time-efficient parking services means that an integrated online pre-booking solution is no longer just a nice-to-have, it's fast becoming a prerequisite for a successful business," says Matthew. "In addition to the role that the technology plays in enhancing customer service, an integrated online pre-booking system impacts positively on day-to-day car park management for owners and operators. Those operators who recognise this are reaping the benefits of increased sales and profits."

ticketingsolutions from ts.com offers operators additional eMarketing functionality with email and SMS tools designed to help encourage repeat booking, target new customers and generate sales.
