Overview
Save time with Breezeway Assist, a team of hospitality professionals who respond to guests' inbound messages at any hour. Easily set and edit Assist’s coverage from the Breezeway platform so you can focus on delivering the best guest experience with peace of mind.
Assist Workflow
With Assist, our team uses the information collected about your properties and reservations in Breezeway to answer questions and inquiries from guests about all types of issues. From our initial testing, we’ve found that we’ve been able to answer 85% of inbound inquiries from guests. For the remaining 15%, the team will either follow up in one of three ways: 1) SMS to your staff and update property profiles if needed, 2) create a task tagged with ‘Breezeway Assist’ for your on the ground staff to follow up for issues which are not urgent, or 3) dial outbound to your staff if there is an emergency. Here’s a visualization of the flow:
Hours of Operation
Once you’re enrolled in Assist, your company hours in Breezeway dictate when messages go into the call center. This gives you a ton of flexibility to adjust on the fly as staffing issues occur.
Did you know? We offer two Assist Packages to choose from!
'After Hours' Package: with this package, your team is committed to replying to guests after hours Monday through Friday, and 24 hours Saturdays and Sundays.
'24/7' Package: an upgraded option where our team manages your Breezeway inbox full time.
