  • Hilton HHonors members can now receive an exclusive discount on room rates by booking directly through its brand websites, award-winning Hilton HHonors mobile app and reservation call centers, or through preferred corporate travel partners and approved travel agents. This guaranteed discount is available at more than 4,500 hotels around the world.

    Recently Hilton launched their biggest marketing campaign in 97 years called "stop clicking around". The goal of this campaign to offer members of their loyalty program known as Hilton Honors special discounts just for booking directly with the company's call center, direct website or preferred travel agents. Not only would this increase revenue but it is also a great way of collecting information on their customers. This is easily done by giving the customers an exclusive incentive just for joining in. Hilton Honors is a free customer loyalty program whose members earn points during each stay that can be used for different amenities like breakfast when staying at a property.

OpenTable integrates with Aloha POS systems, ramps up mobile payments - Inside Scoop SF - 0 views

  • OpenTable is joining forces with NCR’s Aloha, an equally ubiquitous, and equally entrenched, point-of-sale system. The two companies will now merge their services, allowing payments through the OpenTable mobile app

      As of 2015 OpenTable POS has partnered with Aloha to expand mobile payment availability. With this new partnership customers who make reservations through opentable are now able to also attach a credit card to their account and pay their check right through the open table app on their device. This is good for both customers and restaurants. Customers are now able to leave when they are ready which improves their satisfaction and overall dining experience. It also gives customers control of their check since they will be able to view it throughout their meal. The downside to this partnership is that the reservation must be made with Opentable and I'm not sure if there is a way for the restaurant to verify if the customer did actually pay. Without a verification process, customers could walk out without paying, resulting in a loss of revenue for the establishment.

California's Green Chemistry Initiative: "Work Plan" basics and the 7 product categorie... - 0 views

  • Under the Green Chemistry Initiative, manufacturers of “Priority Products” – product/chemical combinations targeted by the DTSC – must conduct an Alternatives Analysis, evaluating the use of substitute chemicals with lesser environmental harm and reporting results to regulators.
  •  
    This article is about California's newly implemented law called the Green Chemistry Initiative to "increase the regulation and oversight of consumer product chemical exposure". They are the first state to legally force companies to actually be aware of not only what their products are made of but also how it can be hurt the consumer once disposed. The best part is that they force the companies to provide a list of alternatives that will also be reviewed before a decision is made by the Dept of Toxic Control. at the moment there is a short list of products but California would like to expand this initiative. With expansion, my concern would be how many products actually being regulated and would there be enough funding and manpower to conclude these in-depth reviews for them to be accurate?
