Los hoteles a la zaga en el uso del 2.0

Ayer leía el artículo “Las 8 tendencias que revolucionan el turismo en internet” , recomendado por Albert Barra en sus lecturas del día y me llamaba la atención, de que a pesar de lo que plantea su autora, “El turismo ha sido una de las industrias donde el auge de Internet y ahora la Web 2.0 han representado un cambio radical en su modelo de negocio”, los hoteles no aparecen reflejados, ni protagonizan y prácticamente ni participan, de las posibilidades y ventajas de esta tecnología.

Hoy por hoy, los hoteles van a la zaga del uso estas herramientas y de sus infinitas posibilidades. Algunos se han limitado a sus sistemas de reservas online y otros se las arreglan para intentar desbancar a turoperadores y agencias de viaje.

Sin embargo muy pocos, para no decir ninguno, han pensado en la realidad e infinidad de ganancias que obtendrían, si dirigieran la red hacia sus adentros y de ahí partir al exterior y/o viceversa, permitiendo una mayor cantidad de intercambio. Sería una oportunidad de interacción del cliente externo con la empresa, entre clientes externos, entre la empresa y empleados ó clientes internos, entre clientes tanto internos, externos y la empresa con proveedores y entre todos los actores del proceso incluyendo los potenciales. Dicho de una forma más global, sería la posibilidad única, hasta el momento, de interacción de todos y cada uno de los actores que intervienen en los procesos y no de la forma que algunos la utilizan en la actualidad, sino en tiempo real y durante el proceso de producción del servicio, además de adherirse al sistema de información, donde podrían recopilar una mayor cantidad de datos e informaciones para crear o aumentar el conocimiento de cada uno de nuestros clientes y mercados.

Imagino a un huésped que después de un largo viaje, llegue al hotel seleccionado ó encontrado y después de un mínimo y casi despreciable tiempo en el check in, llegue a su habitación que tiene instalada una PC y al encenderla y sin introducir datos alguno (contraseña avalada por los datos de su checkin) pueda visitar el hotel y conocer cada uno de sus servicios, horarios y empleados que lo entregan en ese turno. Después de haber seleccionado el restaurant donde hará su cena, (mediante videos de la planta física, decoración, empleados, uniformes, estilos y servicios que se ofrecen e incluso intercambio con empleados) revisar la carta menú, adornada también con videos y explicación de la confección de los platos, hacer la elección de su menú y ordenarlo para una hora determinada, teniendo la posibilidad de intercambiar con los cocineros y dependientes, la forma en que desea le sean confeccionados ó presentados y la mesa de su elección.
Esto es solamente un ejemplo de las enormes posibilidades que tendría un sistema de este tipo, además de poder intercambiar con clientes potenciales interesados en conocer el producto y servicios, con alguien que lo esta viviendo en tiempo y lugar.
Un sistema así, sería mucho más efectivo, para conocer la dirección del hotel y expresar los clientes, las quejas, sugerencias o felicitaciones y agradecimientos.
El hotel, además, aumentaría la información de su clientela y podría evaluar la actitud y calidad en la entrega del servicio de sus empleados, creando o incrementando las posibilidades como un servicio más, que podría mejorar la satisfacción del cliente, contribuyendo a que el proceso sea más personalizado y ajustado a sus exigencias, gustos y preferencias, entregando valor agregado y contribuyendo a la diferenciación y al aumento de las ventajas competitivas.
Una forma más de aumentar los beneficios de ambas partes .
Cierto es, que es algo bien sofisticado y tiene sus limitantes, pero… ¿No sería fantástico?
¿Conocen algún hotel que utilice esto o algo por el estilo?

    [...] Hotels at the rear in the use of 2.0 (Luis Simpson). Absolutely true. Rafael had also said it in some occasion. [...]

    were as follows Placebo-subtracted mean maximum decrease in systolic blood pressure mm Hg Viagra 50 mg 95 CI Supine 5 68 Standing 7 90 Figure 6 Mean Standing Systolic Blood Pressure Change from Baseline Blood pressure was measured after administration of Viagra at the same times as those specified for the first doxazosin study There were two subjects who had a standing SBP of 85 mmHg In these two subjects hypotension was reported as a moderately severe adverse event beginning at approximately 1 hour after administration of Viagra 50 mg and resolving after approximately hours There was one subject with a decrease from baseline in standing systolic BP 30mmHg following Viagra 50 mg and one subject with a decrease from baseline in standing systolic BP 30 mmHg following both Viagra 50 mg and placebo There were no severe adverse events potentially related to blood pressure and no episodes of syncope reported in this study In the third study a single oral dose of Viagra 100 mg or matching placebo was administered in a 3-period crossover design to 20 generally healthy males with BPH In dose period 1 subjects were administered open-label doxazosin and a single dose of Viagra 50 mg simultaneously after at least 14 consecutive days of doxazosin If a subject did not successfully complete this first dosing period he was discontinued from the study Subjects who had successfully completed the previous doxazosin interaction study using Viagra 50 mg including no significant hemodynamic adverse events were allowed to skip dose period 1 Treatment with doxazosin continued for at least 7 days after dose period 1 Thereafter Viagra 100mg or matching placebo was administered simultaneously with doxazosin 4 mg 14 subjects or doxazosin 8 mg 6 subjects in standard crossover fashion The mean subject age in this study was years Twenty-five subjects were screened Two were discontinued after study period 1 one failed to meet pre-dose screening qualifications and the other experienced symptomatic hypotension as a moderately severe adverse event 30 minutes after dosing with open-label Viagra 50 mg Of the twenty subjects who were ultimately assigned to treatment a total of 13 subjects successfully completed dose period 1 and seven had successfully completed the previous doxazosin study using Viagra 50 mg For the 20 subjects who received Viagra 100 mg and matching placebo the placebo-subtracted mean maximum decreases from baseline 95 CI in systolic blood pressure were as follows Placebo-subtracted mean maximum decrease in systolic blood pressure mm Hg Viagra 100 mg Supine 4 1 Standing -1 3 Figure 7 Mean Standing Systolic Blood Pressure Change from Baseline Blood pressure was measured after administration of Viagra at the same times as those specified for the previous doxazosin studies There were three subjects who had a standing SBP of 85 mmHg All three were taking Viagra 100 mg and all three reported mild adverse events at the time of reductions in standing SBP including vasodilation and lightheadedness There were four subjects with a decrease from baseline in standing systolic BP 30mmHg following Viagra 100 mg one subject with a decrease from baseline in standing systolic BP 30 mmHg following placebo and one subject with a decrease from baseline in standing systolic BP 30 mmHg following both Viagra and placebo While there were no severe adverse events potentially related to blood pressure reported in this study one subject reported moderate vasodilatation after both Viagra 50 mg and 100 mg There were no episodes of syncope reported in this study When Viagra 100 mg oral was coadministered with amlodipine 5 mg or 10 mg oral to hypertensive patients the mean additional reduction on supine blood pressure was 8 mmHg systolic and 7 mmHg diastolic No significant interactions were shown with tolbutamide 250 mg or warfarin 40 mg both of which are metabolized by CYP2C9 Viagra 50 mg did not potentiate the increase in bleeding time caused by aspirin 150 mg Viagra 50 mg did not potentiate the hypotensive effect of alcohol in healthy volunteers with mean maximum blood alcohol levels of In a study of healthy male volunteers sildenafil 100 mg did not affect the steady state pharmacokinetics of the HIV protease inhibitors saquinavir and ritonavir both of which are CYP3A4 substrates Sildenafil at steady state 80 mg t i d resulted in a 50 increase in AUC and a 42 increase in Cmax of bosentan 125 mg b i d Carcinogenesis Mutagenesis Impairment of Fertility Sildenafil was not carcinogenic when administered to rats for 24 months at a dose resulting in total systemic drug exposure AUCs for unbound sildenafil and its major metabolite of 29- and 42-times for male and female rats respectively the exposures observed in human males given the Maximum Recommended Human Dose MRHD of 100 mg Sildenafil was not carcinogenic when administered to mice for months at dosages up to the Maximum Tolerated Dose MTD of 10 mg kg day approximately times the MRHD on a mg m2 basis Sildenafil was negative in in vitro bacterial and Chinese hamster ovary cell assays to detect mutagenicity and in vitro human lymphocytes and in vivo mouse micronucleus assays to detect clastogenicity There was no impairment of fertility in rats given sildenafil up to 60 mg kg day for 36 days to females and 102 days to males a dose producing an AUC value of more than 25 times the human male AUC There was no effect on sperm motility or morphology after single 100 mg oral doses of Viagra in healthy volunteers Pregnancy Nursing Mothers and Pediatric Use Viagra is not indicated for use in newborns children or women Pregnancy Category B No evidence of teratogenicity embryotoxicity or fetotoxicity was observed in rats and rabbits which received up to 200 mg kg day during organogenesis
