Example Holiday Park

Hi, It's Cymen here. Rankers owner and 30 years in NZ tourism.

Most of the time I don’t know where my car keys and wallet are. But for some reason I can understand stats and bookings.

There’s a good amount of stats to take in here. I’m going to pop up as we go, to explain each part of the booking funnel.

There’s a big number at the top of this funnel. All this customer interest is great, but at the end of the day, it’s the bookings that matter.

We’ve explained each part here, but there's heaps that goes into increasing the bookings. I’m more than happy to have a 2 way convo, to help increase it.

Now we’re at the end of the funnel. The booking bit that really matters.

We know the number of potential customer's we've sent to each booking avenue. Of course not all those customers will result in a sale.

Our estimated sales are based on industry booking data. Your actual number should be in line with this. If it looks off then get in touch so we can get your conversions spot on.

Booking Engine Conversion Rate

The estimated conversion rate for customers that are directed to a company's realtime booking system.

Booking Engine Conversion Rate 8.60%

What is a conversion rate?

Within this context, a conversion rate refers to the percentage of potential customers who complete a desired action, such as making a booking or reservation, after being directed to your booking system from a Rankers platform.

For example, if 1,000 potential customers are redirected from Rankers to your booking engine, and 50 of those customers make a booking, the conversion rate would be 5%.

This metric is important for measuring the effectiveness of your marketing, optimizing the booking process, and evaluating the overall performance of your partnership with Rankers.

How is your conversion rate calculated?

Estimating your company's conversion rate is crucial to calculating income and return on investment.

Rankers can deliver potential customers to your booking system, however we don't know how many of them will successfully complete a booking. Without this knowledge we can't precisely calculate a conversion rate for Example Holiday Park.

All is not lost though! We can lean on industry data to estimate a conversion rate with some confidence and provide you with accurate enough data for decision making.

Rankers is able to collate precise conversion rate data from a bunch of holidays parks across the country. In these cases we know exactly how many potential customer's were sent to the booking engine and how many of those leads resulted in an actual booking. From this we can calculate the conversion rate for each holiday park and therefore the average conversion rate across these sample holiday parks.

For this sample data, the booking engine is a third party system (not Rankers) and we have very limited control over the booking process and therefore no ability to optimize the conversion rate. In most cases, we expect, when customers are sent to your own booking engine you will have a higher conversion rate.

This data was collected over a period of several months during the shoulder season of 2023. Actual holiday park names have not been revealed to protect sensitive business data.

Given the small sample size this conversion rate has a high margin of error, that being said, we feel it's an accurate enough value for estimating income and for your decision making. If you have real world data for your own booking system then we'd be happy to work with you to fine tune your conversion rate specifically for your operation.
