Alpharetta,
GA – May 2018 / Newsmaker Alert / The
Rainmaker Group (Rainmaker), a leading provider of cloud-based hospitality
revenue and profit optimization software, today announced that SKYCITY
Entertainment Group has selected Rainmaker’s guestrev® and
revintel® to drive revenue at two SKYCITY locations. The agreement
marks Rainmaker’s expansion in the Australian & New Zealand markets.
SKYCITY
Entertainment Group (NASDAQ: SKYTY), owns six casinos across five locations
in Australia and New Zealand. The company sought a revenue management system
(RMS) that could help them reveal total guest value across their property
and are first focusing these efforts at SKYCITY Hotel and SKYCITY Grand,
both located in Auckland, New Zealand. After weighing their options between
their current RMS vendor and Rainmaker, they selected Rainmaker solutions,
citing the company’s history and understanding of the gaming sector.

“Although
we were not unhappy with our current revenue management system, Rainmaker’s
understanding of our desire to provide total guest value at our properties
led to our decision to move,” said Colin McClean, director of Sales at
SKYCITY Hotels & Tower. “Rainmaker’s gaming history along with their
ability to support a total revenue management strategy gave us the reassurance
that we were making the right move. We’re excited to implement guestrev
and revintel and look forward to benefiting from the increased revenue
they will bring.”
This
partnership comes at a great time as Rainmaker announces their plan to
set up an Australian Data-Center to support their customers and expansion
in to the region.
SKYCITY
Entertainment has selected the following revenue management and profit
optimization software solutions from Rainmaker:
-
guestrev®,
an intuitive and easy-to-use revenue management solution that analyzes
total guest value across a hotel or casino property to forecast and price
rooms;
-
revintel®,
an intuitive business intelligence solution that improves day-to-day revenue
management by mining various data sets and providing deep insights at a
granular level.
“The Asia-Pacific
region is really looking for someone to make a stand in the gaming market
and provide a total revenue management solution,” said Patrick Andres,
Rainmaker’s senior vice-president Asia-Pacific, Middle-East and Africa.
“Our portfolio of profit optimization and analytics solutions will do just
that and we are thrilled to add SKYCITY Entertainment Group to the Rainmaker
family. Our next steps in adding a support center in Australia will be
of even more benefit to SKYCITY and the rest Australian hospitality market.”
