GROUP BOOKINGS
We have designed Maxim with a host of features and products to help streamline the booking process and reduce administration, as we understand that these bookings can be especially time-consuming to manage.
Graphical Timelines
- The timeline feature enables users to view the current capacity of any particular event at a glance.
- The timeline changes colour according to the volume of bookings and indicates the remaining capacity. This colour coding is also replicated within the monthly calendar, which provides a view of bookings at a glance.
Diary Search
- This invaluable feature allows your attraction to automatically search for any number of events, specific to your customer’s exact requirements.
- The customer can specify any criteria from date ranges and/or days of the week, and/or times of the day they are available to visit. Maxim will automatically produce an agenda, which will be emailed to the client. The system automatically checks availability, taking into consideration the time it takes to walk between the venues and the length of each performance/activity.
Flexibility for Corporate Bookings
- Maxim can manage your entire booking operation including the reservation of spaces, resources and staff allocation.
- The system allows the user to decide the cost of the booking specific to that particular client rather than a fixed price. This is particularly useful for corporate business, where sales teams negotiate client rates.
