The Universal Appeal of Holiday Lights

The allure of holiday lights is a national phenomenon. Across America, communities light up in celebration, drawing families, couples, and tourists. These displays, varying from elaborate setups in city centers to quaint arrangements in local neighborhoods, offer a magical experience that appeals to all ages.

Setting Up Your Service

Research popular light display destinations in your area to capitalize on this opportunity. Every region has its hotspots, whether it’s a famous city park adorned with lights or a well-known neighborhood that goes all out. Tailor your tours to highlight these local gems, offering a unique experience that reflects the spirit of your region.

Marketing Strategies for Diverse Audiences

Your marketing approach should resonate with your local community while appealing to a broader audience. Use social media to showcase stunning visuals of your tours and partner with local businesses or tourism boards to reach a wider audience. Remember, early booking promotions are crucial to capturing the holiday crowd.

Enhancing Customer Experience

No matter where you are in the USA, the key to a memorable tour is the details. Offer blankets and hot beverages for chilly nights, curate a holiday music playlist, and ensure your vehicles are comfortable and well-maintained. Tailor these offerings to suit your local climate and customer preferences.

Technology as a Unifying Tool

Leverage technology like Limo Anywhere to streamline your operations. This software is invaluable for managing increased bookings during the holiday season, especially when dealing with customers from various locations. Use apps for real-time updates and smooth communication with clients.

Gathering and Implementing Feedback

Collect feedback from your clients to continually refine your service. This can be through post-ride surveys or online reviews. Consider regional preferences and suggestions to adapt your offerings for different markets.

Adapting the Concept for Different Seasons and Events

The concept of themed tours is more comprehensive than the holiday season. Consider adapting it for other events and seasons, like fall foliage tours; spring flower bloom showcases, or city landmark tours. This approach helps in keeping your service fresh and appealing throughout the year.

Holiday light tours are more than just a seasonal fad; they’re a versatile, scalable opportunity to enhance your livery service business. Embrace the diversity of your region and the universal appeal of these tours to create an unforgettable experience for your clients.

Now is the time to explore how Limo Anywhere can support you in this endeavor. Whether orchestrating a local tour or managing nationwide operations, our software offers the solutions you need to succeed. Illuminate your business this holiday season with a sparkling new offering – holiday lights tours!

Setting Up Agents

An agent refers to anyone who receives compensation, either through a fixed fee or a percentage-based commission, for making a sale on behalf of the company.

2. Select the “Company Resources” tab and click the “Agents” button from the left-hand menu.
3. Enter the agent’s information in the blank form on the right side of the screen by completing the following fields
   1. Personal Information
      • First and Last Name (this is the only required field to create an agent profile)
      • Company Name (if applicable)
      • Street Address, City, State, and Zip Code
      • Driver’s License Number, Social Security Number, and Date of Birth (Note: Because agents are paid this information will most likely be required for reporting tax purposes.)
   2. Other Information
      • Enter the commission to be paid on each trip in the Comm Rate field. Commissions can be set as a flat fee or paid out based on a percentage.
      • Select either “Base Charges” or “Grand Total” from the “Calculate Agent Commission on:” drop down.

Utilizing the ORES Agent URL

The ORES Agent URL enables you to provide agents with a unique URL, allowing them to make reservations while ensuring that the reservation is linked to them. This ensures they receive the appropriate commission if applicable.

For example, consider a scenario where you\’ve partnered with a local hotel, offering a 5% commission for each reservation they make on behalf of their guests through your company. By providing them with an Agent URL, they can start making reservations for their guests right away, and the reservation will automatically reflect their commission rate. To create a unique booking link for an agent:

1. Click the “My Office” icon in the Navigation Bar.
2. Select the “Company Resources” tab and click the “Agents” button from the left-hand menu.
3. Add a new agent using the steps above or editing an existing agent by selecting an agent from the menu and clicking the “EDIT AGENT” button.

• • • If you wish to use the Driver’s First Name and Last Name on the Dispatch Grid or Trip Sheets, can you leave this section blank, otherwise you can choose how you would prefer to have this information displayed (ex. if you use Numbers to identify your drivers, you might identify Matt Smith as 001 on your Dispatch Grid).
    • Click the ‘ADD NEW DRIVER’ button at the bottom of the screen to save the driver’s information in the system.

Edit Driver Information

When setting up a driver for the first time, you are going to want to edit their information to access some of the additional settings available, such as DriverAnywhere Settings.

To Edit a Driver:

1. Select the Driver from the ‘Drivers’ module.
2. Click the ‘EDIT DRIVER’ button.
3. The driver’s information will open in the ‘Edit Driver’ tab where the blank driver form had previously been in the previous section along with the additional tabs for DriverAnywhere Settings, Payroll Setup, and Driver Portrait.

DriverAnywhere Settings

If you want you Driver to have access to DriverAnywhere, you will need to adjust their settings appropriately under the DriverAnywhere Settings tab (make sure the ‘Use Driver Anywhere’ checkbox is ticked). Note: Drivers do not have access to DriverAnywhere by default and DriverAnywhere settings are controlled per driver.

Payroll Setup

Limo Anywhere offers you the option to pay your drivers a percentage of the revenue taken from the customers charges plus an hourly charge and/or a fixed rate per trip.

NOTE: Creating just one payment schedule per vehicle type for each driver is important because it enables the system to input this information into the driver payroll fields on the settlement screen. If multiple schedules are generated for a single vehicle type for a particular driver, it leads to system ambiguity, making it challenging to determine which stored schedule should be utilized.

If you are paying your driver a percentage of the fees / charges, enter the amounts here. Check the box next to the applicable rate and enter the percentage that the driver is to be paid from each element of the total fee you bill to your customer (ex. 100% of the gratuities paid out).

Driver Portrait

The Driver Portrait feature will allow you to include your driver\’s portrait on any scheduled email or custom forms sent to your client.

Accessing Account Number Settings

1. Click the “My Office” icon in the Navigation Bar.
2. Select “Company Preferences” from the Company Settings tab, then click the “Accounts, Calendar, Quotes” button from the lefthand menu.

There are two options available under the “Customer Account Numbers:” field: System Generated or Manually Entered.

By default, the system is set to “System Generated” and “Begin at 30000”, but your system can start with any number you prefer. System Generated numbers means anytime a new account is created Limo Anywhere will assign the next available account number (ex. 30000, 30001, 30002…, etc.)

Note: If you choose the “System Generated” option, you are only allowed to enter numerical values in the “Starts With:” field in order for the system to create numbers in sequence.

Choosing the “Manually Entered” will  require the account number be entered by the person setting up the account each time a new account is created. Manually entered account numbers can be a numerical, text, or a combination of both.

[Optional] if you’re choosing to generate your own account numbers, you can choose to allow duplicate account numbers. This would allow multiple passengers, booking contacts, and billing contacts to be assigned the same account number this linking those persons with that account number for the purpose of invoicing or reporting.

Note: These settings impact your system globally, but this setting can be adjusted at any time. For example, if you prefer to use system generated accounts for your retail clients but prefer to use a manual format when generating account numbers for corporate clients, you can always adjust this setting while creating an account you want to use a manually entered value for and then return the setting back once the account has been created.

Setting Required Account Fields

Before adding accounts, you are able to define what fields in the Account Profile are required before the Account can be saved.

1. Click the “My Office” icon in the Navigation Bar.
2. Select “Company Preferences” from the Company Settings tab, then click the “Accounts, Calendar, Quotes” button from the lefthand menu.
3. Click the “Required account fields” link.
4. Information is broken up into two categories, Account Info type and Financial.
5. Tick the boxes for each of the pieces of information you want to require when an account is created.
6. Click the “Update Account Required Fields” button to save changes.

For example, when setting up a new account, you might want to require that every contact requires a phone number and an email, or maybe you want to ensure that each account is created with a valid form of payment, you can select “Pmt Method”.

Note: this setting is also global, so you may not want to require a Company Name unless you do almost exclusively corporate work.

If you ever have questions, need assistance, or encounter challenges, our dedicated Support team is always ready to assist you. You can reach Support directly by calling 1-888-888-0302 x2 or sending an email to support@limoanywhere.com. Do you have a product suggestion or feedback about something in our system?
