The ongoing successful vaccination drive is rebooting the global lodging industry, helping Uplift Lockdowns, Travel Restrictions, and Quarantine.

Experts suggest that the world's hospitality sector will be near the pre-COVID-19 times within a year or two.

 

The lodging industry demand has upsurge sharply from mid of 2021, and increased occupancy has Delivered a Booster Dose to the industry. 

 

However, the client's needs and demands nowadays are different; they wish for remote locations and fewer interactions. The worldwide remote locations from Swiss Ski resorts to vacation homes in Maldives have boomed in popularity.

 

One prevalent trend that has recently emerged from the worldwide lodging industry is that "Clients Want to Minimize Contact With Other Guests."

 

Another preference change is the open-air spaces, such as gardens and party arenas rather than enclosed halls.

 

We can deduce that the lodging industry must innovate its engagements with clients. Additional room services integrated with an in-room tablet are no longer a luxury but a necessity. 

 

Local Now More Than Ever

 

The local inbound travel is surging — What's surprising is that the boutique hotels have reached the peak of their occupancy. 

 

With ever-changing red-listed countries, mandatory quarantines & fear of contamination, people now have dedicated themselves to exploring their own beloved countries. This means the success of local and independent hotels. 

 

Did I Mention Digital?

The importance of investing big time into improving digital media presence and engagements, such as online distribution channels, websites, and digital campaigns, has never been more evident than today.

 

Contactless Payments and Video Conferences are a few examples of how lodging businesses have embraced technology. 

 

What's Next?

 

Your lodging platform must acknowledge the growing trends in the tourism industry and evolve to deliver the best guest experience that your clients deserve. 

 

Now is the right time to adapt to new trends, as the demands are again expected to scale new heights in the next few years.

 

But, for all this, you need funds, and for funds, you require the support of angel investors and venture capitalists.

 

Above all this, a compelling pitch deck that articulates your brand story is essential. 

 

Fortunately, in this article, we will guide you on creating the perfect Lodging Startup Pitch Deck to convince investors and secure funding.

#1 The Problem Statement Slide 

Many perceive that the most significant cause of a startup failure is a lack of funds, but the real reason is the lack of need for a particular product/service in the market. 

 

Therefore, the angel investors and venture capitalists are keen to understand the problem statement. In this lodging pitch deck slide template, the problems are well-defined. 

 

These are divided into three segments.

The second is "Hotels," and its issues, such as inadequate lighting and poor linen. 

 

And, last is "No Easy Way Exists." 

 

This slide is not cluttered with unnecessary information or long stories that investors hardly care about.

87% believe that the hotel management will follow up with an empathic response, "It Improves My Impression of the Hotel."

#5 The Market Size Slide

An essential slide in a pitch deck is the market size.

They often bet on the future to evaluate whether the investment opportunity is worth it or not. A bar graph in this slide template demonstrates the market size (in millions). 

 

A dedicated section on the right-hand side puts forth vital statistics about the lodging industry.
