What is Yield Management?
Yield management or automatic table assignment, is the act of bookings being placed on tables, ensuring that the table size is suitable for the guest booking. That can be as simple as sitting as group of 4 at your next available table of 4.
But it can also mean sitting a group of 3 there, or using table chains to make a larger table by pushing them together. It can also mean only sitting certain guests at certain tables at certain times of day. Why is Yield Management Useful?
- It can save you hours every week of manually assigning tables, freeing up your teams time
- Our auto-yield and re-yield features mean you can easily shift your entire days seating plan around in seconds
- It can be set up within ten minutes and can then run forever (or the next time you refurbish, at least)
- Venues with yield management underbook less often, as we know exactly what tables are available and can maximise your space, increasing revenue by up to 28% versus manual placement by team members
- Yields can be changed for a different sessions, areas of the restaurant and times of day
- You can even priotise tables, so if you have four tables of 6 free, the system will know exactly which ones to fill up first, every time.
