Florida Hotels Maximize Profit During the High Season with POS Software

The economic downturn has been hard on the hotel industry for the last two years, but the recession is a challenge and an opportunity for general managers. It is more important than ever to emphasize quality of service and provide sufficient training to all staff. In the recovering economy, there is still a high demand for hotels, and a lot of the business comes from corporations as a place to hold meetings. Florida hotels like the Marenas Resort in Miami and the Villas at Grand Cypress in Orlando did better last year than the year before, and continue to pick up speed in 2010.

Tourism in South Florida is typically highest from mid-February through the Easter holiday, when winter residents or snowbirds start returning back home. However, due to this year’s unusually cold winter, hotels are seeing a late season with occupancy up in April compared to this time last year. 

With the increased business, right now is the perfect time for hotel managers to examine how their business is functioning and to make use of software that will maximize profits. Pinnacle Hospitality Systems helps hotels and country clubs with POSitouch and Dinerware software solutions. The computer POS systems are designed to streamline transaction processes at hotels, making it easy to book rooms, extract sales reports, track inventory and manage labor. POS software systems help managers create work schedules and handle payroll to keep track of overtime hours.  POSitouch Hotel Solutions also provide a video security system interface that allows hotel GMs to record items ordered on digital video to hone in on loss prevention.

Pinnacle Hospitality Systems has helped to automate the hotel industry, streamlining businesses and cutting overhead costs for hospitality establishments in Miami, Orlando, and throughout Florida and Alabama for over twenty years.

Florida Restaurants Optimistic About Business in 2010

Restaurants in Florida are gradually climbing back from the recession and the restaurant industry is optimistic about recovery this year. South Florida restaurants, like Boca Raton-based Table 42 Italian Kitchen and Wine Bar, have seen an increase in sales in the first three months of 2010 compared to January, February and March of last year. Owner Gary Rack says he has also seen more tourists in the first quarter and that even locals are dining out more. A noticeable change is the increased quality and portion size, while prices have remained the same as a dining incentive.  

The National Restaurant Association conducted a survey in February that showed restaurateurs are “increasingly optimistic about the economy and sales growth over the next six months,” (Sun Sentinel). Nationwide, restaurant industry sales are expected to increase 2.5% this year, which is an improvement compared to a decline for the past two years.

The positive outlook has resulted in new operators interested in opening restaurants in Florida this year – which is greatly helping out the hospitality industry. These new establishments range from sports bars to upscale restaurants to casual pizza places.

The trend of higher quality food for the same price also means setting a higher standard for service. Pinnacle Hospitality Systems has provided software solutions to improve services in fine dining, sports bars, nightclubs and casual dining restaurants for over twenty years. Pinnacle supplies restaurant POS systems in Florida like POSitouch and Dinerware to help hospitality businesses maximize profit, increase productivity and control expenses.

Traditionally, when POS systems come to mind one would immediately think of the software to be used for restaurants. However, Pinnacle Hospitality Systems provide POSitouch and Dinerware computer POS systems to benefit hotels as well. The hospitality systems allow hotel businesses to run more efficiently and streamline all aspects of management, including employment management, record keeping, food and beverage management, ordering and entertainment.

POSitouch and Dinerware can be customized to fit individual businesses’ needs. All factors need to be examined when it comes to managing a hotel establishment, from keeping track of visitor history and loyalty programs to charging room service and spa treatments. Hotels should always be aware of how things can be run more efficiently – minimizing time and resources to maximize profit.

Some hotel owners or managers who are hesitant about installing hotel POS systems need to know that there is no better method of streamlining business activities. The whole purpose of POSitouch and Dinerware software is to provide owners with better management capabilities so they can supervise cashflow, take inventory of stock, organize large parties of guests, and review sales reports quickly and easily. POS software systems give managers better control of how their hotels are running so they can hone in on profitable areas and find room for improvement in weaker areas.

It is important for hotel management to think of the long term goal – to provide top notch experience to guests so they will come back in the future and spread the word to bring in more business. Hospitality systems facilitate staff with providing that world-class service.
