Stowe, Vermont, Sept. 07, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Revelstoke Mountain Resort’s new Director of Marketing has decided to bring the revenue-generating capabilities of Inntopia Marketing Cloud to the Canadian ski resort.
British Columbia’s Revelstoke Mountain Resort opened in 2007, and boasts the longest vertical drop of any ski area in North America. Ten years later, management has its sights set on significantly growing the resort’s market share.
“We want to get to the point where data is really driving our marketing,” said Revelstoke Director of Marketing Kevin Manuel. “I've seen first-hand how effective that can be.”
Manuel, who previously oversaw email marketing at Whistler-Blackcomb, said he chose Inntopia because it will allow his team to get up and running quickly.
Inntopia Marketing Cloud, known as the CRM for resorts, will connect directly to Revelstoke’s RTP servers, enabling the resort’s marketers to see and analyze the ticketing and season pass revenue generated by each campaign and each guest.
The system will allow the resort to design automated campaigns that target the guests most likely to purchase at any given time with personalized messaging based on a centralized, de-duplicated and sanitized guest database that unleashes the power of the data that has previously been locked within RTP, the ticketing and point-of-sale system in use at Revelstoke.
Inntopia’s team of marketing experts has already begun working on ideas for Revelstoke’s marketing program, and looks forward to collaborating with Manuel and his staff.
“Starting a new ski resort is a big deal, and it’s been great to watch Revelstoke grow these past ten years,” said Inntopia CEO Trevor Crist. “We’re very excited to get involved and help them get to the next level in terms of success.”
