There are always exceptions on a group trip. YouLi makes it possible to manage those pricing exceptions easily per person.
Two Ways to Personalize
- Tailored Pricing - because they need a hidden discount or purchased hidden extra
- Specifically edit a person and set a "PERSONALIZED PRICE"
- Be sure to amend the pricing explanation to explain why the price is not the same as the rest of the group
- See below for details
- Revenue Management - increase or decrease the price of remaining spots in your inventory to ensure you get the most revenue possible on your trip - without disrupting early customers
- Edit the price of a package that already has bookings
- When prompted: choose to "PERSONALIZE" the people who are already booked
- See below for details and a video
Why use personalized pricing?
- Personalized Pricing allows you to give travelers a price that is only available or relevant to them.
- You may have a traveler who is getting a special deal or cost for several reasons; by giving them a personalized price, you do not have to create a new package just for them that them.
- Not only can you adjust the price, but you can also set personalized invoice terms that only the one traveler can view.
Personalized Pricing may not be something you use often, but it can be extremely convenient when you do. Keeping your payments organized is an essential part of launching a successful trip!
