Background

Underperforming Sales and Growth Challenges

The client struggled with low sales conversions, ineffective contact center performance, and fragmented on-property sales execution. Leadership had a clear vision for an advantaged sales organization but faced challenges in execution and alignment across locations.

Project Details

Building a High-Performance Sales Organization

The consultants at Summit Trails conducted an operational scan to identify barriers to performance and developed a structured sales transformation plan. They facilitated process design workshops to map out a replicable, high-impact sales model. A System for Managing (SFM) was implemented, featuring daily and weekly performance reviews and scorecards to drive accountability. The team also led 32 targeted improvement initiatives, aligning leadership, contact center teams, and hotel personnel around a future-state vision. Through enhanced coaching, structured sales processes, and optimized inquiry handling, the project resulted in substantial improvements in revenue, conversion rates, and customer satisfaction.

"Of the many change initiatives we have taken on, this one stands out the brightest. The consultants at Summit Trails executed against a well-defined project plan and delivered results beyond what we thought possible."
