How Zermatt uses Salesforce to become the most digital alpine destination
How do you give customers a seamless, luxury experience that starts before they even visit your website?
Travelers booking a luxury trip expect their whole experience to be smooth, intuitive, and tailored to their needs. And that journey starts a long time before they check in to the hotel.
In fact, the process of choosing a destination begins well before the customer even arrives at a resort’s website.
That means today’s luxury resorts need to create the right impression from the first social media scroll – right through to the visitor’s last moments on site.
The renowned Swiss ski destination Zermatt Matterhorn has achieved exactly that. By harmonizing the various parts of the buying journey, the resort has created a rich, coherent customer experience that lets travelers feel the exhilaration of the mountaintop, all the way from their desktop.
In the next few pages, we’ll show you exactly how this works in practice – and how Zermatt uses Salesforce to build anticipation from the first engagement, make\ booking feel natural, and deliver a superior experience in the Alps.
