Squiggles (9) Regular Hire Management Made Easy on SpacetoCo

Regular Hire Management Made Easy on SpacetoCo

A tool that really works to remove the stress of managing regular hire bookings and payments at your community venue.

Book a demo with a local expert

How many of these regular hirer management issues do you deal with at your venue?

  • The hirer doesn't use the regular slot, then asking for it to be removed from the invoice
  • Complicated credit notes and refunds
  • Mistakes on the invoice because they didn't tell you about the changes
  • Very low rates that were agreed years ago and now it's too awkward to bump them up
  • Not paying for gaps between bookings even though they are still using the space
  • Entering bookings and having to work out when the school holidays are
  • Getting them to commit to next year's dates
  • Needing to be chased several times to pay the invoice

If you ticked more than three of these issues, then maybe it's time to get a system that removes the headaches?

Regular hirers are your VIP space users

They come weekly, monthly (or just a lot!) and are a big part of your community. They might be hosting a regular meeting or they might be providing classes, or a regular event that's hosted at your venue.

For many of the venues we work with, regular hire can make up 80% of your revenue - so these really are your most important customers. But most important can also mean the MOST admin as well.

SpacetoCo helps you ditch the time draining processes so your time can be freed up to work on what matters to you.

The smartest way to manage your regular hirers

Here's what you can STOP doing when you start using SpacetoCo

You'll never create or correct invoices ever again

Mistakes on invoices happen because a booking is updated on a calendar or other system that is not connected to the billing system. SpacetoCo generates invoices from the record of what bookings happened, so they are always correct.

Invoice

No more awkward "Have you paid yet?" conversations

Regular hirers have their bookings payment collected by SpacetoCo in the same way you pay a mobile phone bill. If there are issues with nonpayment, we chase so you don’t have to.

Payment Method

Monthly payment reconciliation done

We reconcile all your bookings payments and send you one lump sum and a suite of financial reports. That means you only have to deal with one booking transaction a month, and all the revenue you receive is money you’ve earned.

Reconciliation

You don't have to be your regular hirer's personal assistant

Regular hirers can see and request changes or cancel their own bookings, so you don’t have to.

Request booking changes

Stop losing revenue from late cancellations

Some regular hirers don’t tell you until after their slot that they won’t be using it. SpacetoCo makes it easy  for them to cancel so you can give the slot to someone else and still earn revenue.

Cancel bookings

Don't put up with bad behaviour

Having a bookings tool makes it easy to apply policies that nudge people to not take the p***! If people don’t show, the system will apply the policy you set. If people overstay, you can add that charge at a click of a button.

Added Item_ Charge

No more faffing about trying to find availability for regular bookings

Scheduling in new regular bookings can feel like trying to solve an impossible jigsaw puzzle in your calendar. SpacetoCo will automatically calculate availability for thousands of new regular bookings, making it easy to schedule and book in.

Regular Hires

You don't need to ever look up another school/ public holiday date

SpacetoCo knows all the local and national holidays and school holidays, making it easy to exclude these from a regular hirers bookings.

Public and School Holidays

No more digging about for your monthly reporting

See all your casual, regular and internal bookings in simple dashboards or generate reports on revenue, attendees, duration, GST and heaps more at the click of a button.

Finally, a system that is purpose built for managing regular hirers at community venues

When we first built SpacetoCo, we had no idea about all the little things that pile up to make managing regular hires so hard. 

A big community facility that had listed on our marketplace approached us and asked us to help make managing their regular hirers just as easy as the One Click Booking flow they had come to rely on for pay upfront customers. So we worked together to design and build something that is purpose built for community venues and really works!

Increase revenue by 15-30%

Venues who move their bookings on to SpacetoCo see an increase in revenue because they've made it so much easier to be found and booked by new and existing customers. This growth offsets our fees to make it cost neutral.

Lets do the math

Making a fiscally responsible decision for your organisation

Investing in modern software that can free up your team from repetitive admin is a good business decision for your organisation. Most venues we work with are charitable trusts, so it's important that you make good fiscal decisions that will help you grow revenue and continue to deliver for your cause.

Here's Richard, Chief Exec at the He Waka Eke Noa Trust that operates a rehearsal facility in Auckland talking about why investing in SpacetoCo has paid dividends for his trust...

You're in good company!
