Shipping Concierge Offers Increased Revenue and Improved Guest Satisfaction
Ultimate Self-service Shipping System Designed Expressly for Hotels
LOS ANGELES, CA, February 16, 2009 - After successfully launching the only self-service shipping systems for hotels in 2008, Pop Up Shipping, LLC is unveiling it's newest version of "The Shipping Concierge" in Las Vegas at the International Hospitality Week-Hotel World Expo on March 1st- March 4th, 2009. You can visit them at booth 1536.
The newest version of The Shipping Concierge comes with many upgraded features and enhancements. The Shipping Concierge provides hotels and business centers the opportunity to offer self-service shipping to their guests. Any hotel can easily turn a business center into a place where hotel guest can prepare, pay and ship packages and luggage all from a self-service computer kiosk. The self-service centers offer great revenue potential for hotels while also providing a much- needed service to their guests.
The newest version of The Shipping Concierge is web-based and is easily accessible from any computer. Hotels do not have to spend lots of money to purchase extra equipment, because the service can easily integrate into their existing computer equipment, and with the equipment of their current computer kiosk provider. Fully equipped ship centers are also still available, and may come with new equipment, and installed for free through one of Pop Up Shipping's various service programs.
Other upgraded features of The Shipping Concierge offer several new ways for the hotel to increase their revenue. The newest version offers hotels the option to sell shipping boxes and collect the charges directly from the kiosk. The Shipping Concierge also allows hotels to use their existing FedEx or UPS negotiated discount rates to increase the hotel's profit margins.
Due to its low cost and easy installation, The Shipping Concierge is perfect for hotels of all sizes. Small hotels can now use the system to offer shipping services to guests, and large hotels can use the system to make their existing business centers more customer friendly and efficient by offering a self-service kiosk option to accompany their staffed services. It's a win-win solution for everyone.
