Then, in the 1980s, the government forced the tribe to move in the name of preserving the geological site for tourists.

Mark shared some incredible insights from his journey in the tech and restaurant industries, and I wanted to highlight three key takeaways that really stood out to me: The Importance of Adaptability in Business Mark emphasized how crucial it is for businesses, especially in the restaurant sector, to adapt to changing consumer behaviors and market dynamics. With the rise of quick-service restaurants and the shift towards convenience, traditional dining establishments must innovate to stay relevant. Rapid Res aims to bridge the gap by streamlining the dining experience, allowing restaurants to compete effectively against larger chains. This adaptability is not just about technology; it’s about understanding your customers and evolving with their needs. Learning from Past Experiences Mark's journey with Easy Pre-Orders taught him invaluable lessons about the startup landscape. He candidly discussed the challenges he faced, from securing funding as a first-time entrepreneur to navigating the complexities of the restaurant industry. His experience highlights the importance of resilience and learning from both successes and failures. As he embarks on this new venture with Rapid Res, he’s applying those lessons to create a more efficient and customer-centric solution. It’s a reminder that every setback can be a stepping stone to future success. The Power of Collaboration One of the most exciting aspects of Mark's approach with Rapid Res is the emphasis on partnerships. By collaborating with restaurants and leveraging technology, he’s creating a platform that not only benefits his business but also drives foot traffic back to local eateries. This collaborative spirit is essential in today’s competitive landscape, where businesses must work together to thrive. Mark’s vision of enhancing the dining experience through technology is a testament to the power of teamwork and shared goals. I encourage you to listen to this episode for a deeper dive into Mark's insights and the innovative solutions Rapid Res is bringing to the table.

I'm excited to announce the latest episode of the Tech On Toast podcast, where we dive deep into the world of hospitality technology with our special guest, Pete Saunders, Head of Relationships at Zonal Hotel Solutions. In this episode, we explore the intersection of technology and hospitality, and I wanted to share three key takeaways that stood out to me: The Importance of Integration in Tech Stacks One of the biggest challenges facing hospitality operators today is managing complex tech stacks. Pete highlighted how many businesses are overwhelmed with numerous products that don’t communicate effectively with each other. This often leads to "dirty integrations" and reporting nightmares. The solution? A streamlined approach with a focus on integration, allowing operators to have a cohesive system that enhances efficiency and improves the guest experience. Total Revenue Management: A Game Changer We discussed the shift from traditional revenue management to total revenue management. This approach not only looks at room rates but also considers all revenue streams from a guest, such as dining and additional services. By understanding the total value a guest brings, operators can make more informed decisions that drive profitability. This holistic view is crucial in today’s competitive landscape. The Role of AI in Enhancing Guest Experience AI is no longer just a buzzword; it’s becoming an integral part of hospitality technology. Pete shared insights on how Zonal is leveraging AI to analyze customer data and provide actionable insights to staff. This not only helps in personalizing the guest experience but also empowers teams to deliver exceptional service without the stress of complicated systems. I encourage you to listen to the full episode for a deeper dive into these topics and more! Whether you're in hospitality or tech, there are valuable insights that can help you navigate the evolving landscape of our industry. A big thank you to our sponsor, ZenZap, for supporting this season of the podcast. And as always, thank you for tuning in!

By automating marketing strategies based on customer behavior, businesses can significantly increase engagement without overwhelming their teams. Imagine sending personalized promotions to customers at the right time, ensuring that you're not just sending blanket messages but rather targeted communications that resonate with individual preferences. This approach not only enhances customer experience but also drives sales effectively.Data as an Insurance PolicyOne of the most compelling points David made was about viewing your customer database as an insurance policy for the future. In challenging economic times, retaining existing customers is more crucial than ever. By nurturing your database and utilizing it for targeted marketing, businesses can create a safety net that helps sustain revenue. David emphasized that even if you're not actively marketing, growing your database is essential. When the time comes to engage, having a robust list can make all the difference.Simplicity and Agility in Tech SolutionsIn our discussion, we touched on the importance of simplicity and agility in tech solutions.

This approach not only simplifies the user experience but also enables businesses to adapt quickly to changing market demands.

By streamlining their focus, Impact Data can deliver exceptional value and support to their clients.I encourage you to listen to the full episode for more insights and stories from David's journey in the tech industry.

Hey everyone! I'm excited to announce the latest episode of the Tech On Toast podcast, where we dive deep into the world of hospitality tech with our special guests from Yumpingo, Jess Walton and Darren. If you’re in the hospitality industry or just curious about how technology is transforming the way we operate, this episode is a must-listen! Here are my top three takeaways: The Power of Feedback : One of the most significant shifts in the hospitality industry is how operators are beginning to view feedback. Traditionally, feedback was often seen as a tool for damage control, primarily focused on responding to negative reviews. However, Jess and Darren emphasize that feedback should be viewed as a strategic asset. By collecting and analyzing guest insights, operators can identify areas for improvement and drive meaningful change across their businesses. This proactive approach not only enhances guest experiences but also boosts overall operational efficiency. Continuous Improvement with Tech : Yumpingo has developed a unique methodology called the Continuous Actions Process (CAP), which is all about driving ongoing improvements in hospitality operations. Unlike traditional methods that may work well in manufacturing, CAP is tailored for the complexities of the hospitality sector. It allows operators to quickly identify issues, implement changes, and measure the impact—all in real-time. This means that even small tweaks can lead to significant improvements in guest satisfaction and operational performance. The Human Element in Tech : While technology plays a crucial role in streamlining operations, Jess and Darren remind us that the human touch is irreplaceable. They highlight the importance of building relationships and understanding the unique challenges that hospitality operators face. By combining tech with a consultative approach, Yumpingo helps businesses not just to adopt new tools but to embrace change and foster a culture of continuous improvement. 01:19 Meet the Guests: Jess and Darren from Yumpingo 02:33 Jess's Journey in Tech and Account Management 03:39 Darren's Background and Transition to Hospitality Tech 05:12 Understanding Yumpingo's Value Proposition 06:50 The Evolution of Feedback in Hospitality 09:54 Adoption and Continuous Improvement with Yumpingo 12:28 The Role of Tech in Enhancing Customer Experience 14:48 Tech on Table: The Future of Hospitality 18:50 Driving Customer Loyalty with Data 19:13 Personalisation and CRM Integration 20:27 Challenges in Training and Development 21:43 Feedback and Operational Improvements 22:38 The Lasagna Story: A Lesson in Consistency 24:10 Leveraging Technology for Real-Time Feedback 26:14 The Importance of Addressing Minor Issues 33:33 Adapting to Market Changes 37:50 Future Trends in Hospitality Tech 41:39 Closing Thoughts…

Hey everyone! I'm excited to announce the latest episode of the Tech On Toast podcast, where we dive deep into the world of AI recruitment with two incredible guests, Ed Godwin and Ed Grimes from Talent Unlimited. If you're in the hospitality industry or just curious about how technology is transforming recruitment, this episode is a must-listen! Here are my three key takeaways:Efficiency Meets Quality: One of the standout features of their AI recruitment assistant, Sophie, is her ability to streamline the hiring process without sacrificing the quality of interviews. Sophie can screen candidates and conduct voice AI interviews in less than a day, compared to the traditional 22-day process. This means that recruiters can focus on the best candidates while ensuring that everyone receives personalized feedback, enhancing the overall candidate experience.Addressing Bias in Recruitment: A significant concern in recruitment is the potential for bias, especially when it comes to human decision-making. Ed Grimes highlighted that Sophie operates without human biases, as she is trained to assess candidates based on objective criteria rather than historical hiring decisions. This approach not only promotes inclusivity but also ensures that every candidate is evaluated fairly, regardless of their background.Empowering Recruiters, Not Replacing Them: Both Eds emphasised that AI should be seen as a tool to enhance the capabilities of human recruiters, not as a replacement. By taking care of the "heavy lifting," Sophie allows recruiters to spend more time on meaningful interactions with candidates. This collaboration between AI and human expertise can lead to better hiring outcomes and a more positive experience for both candidates and employers.I had a fantastic time chatting with Ed Godwin and Ed Grimes, and I believe their insights will resonate with anyone involved in recruitment or the hospitality sector. 🎧✨👉 Tune in now to hear the full conversation and discover how AI is revolutionising the recruitment landscape!
