30 Second pitch
We appreciate that to evaluate software as complex as a bookings management system takes time. Before you spend this time you need to know whether our product, TourCMS, is worth the effort. Here is our 30 second pitch:
Who is it for?
- Small and medium sized tour operators and activity organisers (and travel agents too!)
- Manage your bookings (taken online, entered via staff, entered by travel agencies) including complex multi-centre itineraries and tailor-made travel
- Controls your website so it shows dates, prices & availability that you have available to book
- Acts as a website content management system (CMS) or can be integrated with an existing website design / existing CMS (or just use TourCMS as a reservation system) (Your web designer is in control. We don't sell web design services)
- Basic accounts and reports
- Tracks pay per click (PPC) online marketing from initial visit through to actual bookings
- Enable tour leaders, suppliers, ground handlers and representatives to remotely login and review their bookings
- We don't integrate directly with 3rd party accounting packages (although you can export financial data from TourCMS)
- There is no incoming distribution connectivity (GDSs, flights, bed banks etc). Its for companies with their own products to sell
- Make the tea
