M&A Topics

This is a watershed moment in budget hotel industry
Competition in industry is fierce and needs to be integrated
Industry leader
Mergers and acquisitions will be implemented for lagging behind in industry
Because
The location factor is key to profitability of budget hotels
in industry
Competitors who will be better off through M&A
In bag
Simultaneously
Achieving scalability
Of course, mergers and acquisitions will continue
In addition

Active search for objects of attraction
American Hotel Association
There are statistics
Economy class hotel
Approximately 70% of US hotel market
But China
This ratio is less than 10%
Great business potential
Make a budget hotel in China
The lure of market is almost unparalleled
Market segmentation
Currently internal
Homogeneity of services in budget hotels is a serious matter
For consumers
No additional divisions, fierce competition in industry
Leads to a decrease in profitability of industry
According to foreign development experience
There are three types of cheap hotels
Limited service hotel
Abbreviation: Limited Service Hotel
Economy class hotel
Abbreviation: economy/budget hotel
Cheap hotel
Abbreviation: Super Budget Hotel
Limited service hotel
Belongs to a high-end economy hotel
Middle class hotel
Cheap hotel
He belongs to lowest class
These three hotel levels
Prices vary a lot
This
The hardware gap is also very large
Limited service hotel room equipment
At least four or five star hotels
And some cheap hotels
Maximum simplification of equipment under guidance of cost reduction
Room amenities are relatively basic
The basis of this classification
It is actually based on purchasing power of consumers encountered
You meet clients who are traveling
Still
Clients who travel often
Among tourists there are family travelers
Still a tourist student with insufficient income
Among business travelers
What is a short stay
What is period of stay
Example:
As a practitioner in our consulting industry
This is a client who stayed for a certain period of time
During project
We should all live where our clients are
Different consumers will have different consumption options
Too homogeneous competition
This will lead to a decrease in profitability of industry
Improve control

For this newborn
Survival and development skills are still imperfect
Currently
Economy class hotels are about to be reshuffled
Hearing your core skills has become more important
Formation of economic strategy of hotel
Appropriate HR strategy
Financial strategy, marketing strategy, etc. needed
Promotion through management
Offer products that meet basic consumer needs
Target differentiation and enterprise value enhancement
Example:
If economy class hotel industry is experiencing a period of growth
Then
The hotel will be as close as possible
Increase market share
An appropriate financial strategy should be aimed at raising capital
Cannot be a reliable financial strategy
Information system
Like a hotel
Are services timely and considerate
To a large extent
Depends on use of information technology in hotel
Comprehensive booking system
Can guarantee more passenger traffic
Large Fixed Client Management
The system can guarantee normal occupancy
Reliable and stable logistics system

CRM is a sales platform
It can
Management platform for business and cost analysis

Central purchasing platform including logistics management
And an internal hotel management information system
Powered by these four platforms
Manager
You can use your PDA at any time
And understanding mobile phone
Business status of each Homeinns branch
For example, occupancy, product cost
Composition of clients, etc.
May also be from previous week
Previous month
Or longer time period data for chart analysis
Know situation in branch
Making judgments and decisions
Because
Can monitor situation in each branch in real time
Home Inn management has gradually reached level
Real mixing
Reduced Average
Really do it

Homeinn Monthly Orders
40% of which comes from a central reservation system
If there is no central reservation system
If these orders come from intermediaries
Home Inn will require a lot of profit
Simplify production chain
The result is cost savings
Know
The lifeblood of a budget hotel is cost control.
