Summary
There are a number of ways PIMS can be used to enhance the value of your own website:
| Availability calendars |
While you are maintaining your bookings in PIMS, the availability calendar on your own
website can be updated automatically for you - instantaneously!
The calendar can also be customised to match the colour scheme of your own website |
| Rate card |
Since you will naturally want to create a rate card in PIMS, you can display the rates table in your website without any copy/paste!
|
Contact Us |
Display a simple (or complicated) contact form on your website, and when a visitor completes the form an enquiry will automatically
be entered into PIMS for you - in addition, of course, to sending you an email !
|
| On-line reservation |
If you wish to offer instant on-line bookings, you can add a form to your website that will check that the dates are available, and
conform to your rules. Then if the dates are clear, it will invite the guest to make a provisional booking directly in PIMS - and, of course,
send you an email !
|
| Booking confirmation |
If you have taken the enquiry from a different source (say a listing site), then you can send the guest a specific link
to a customised booking form for the guest to complete all his details and if appropriate to agree to your Terms and Conditions.
|
| Availability search |
If you have a large portfolio of properties, you can let your website visitor enter their preferred dates and PIMS will offer up
all of your properties that actually have the availability. You design the search results and define what happens next.

You can experience a variety of examples of the above forms for yourself at our mythical
holiday rental website

Visit this website and experiment with each
of the properties separately.
Remember that everything you see at this website can be tailored to suit your own website in terms of look and wording.
