What about integrating group organizer tools to keep organizers hanging around and using you. Like itenerary tools, ability to send out emails to the group about changes, tools for splitting up costs evenly, that sort of thing. If they use you to organize, they might use you to book.

Also, question: you say it's difficult keeping track of commissions; if you did keep track of them well would that be enough money, or are you looking for an alternative revenue stream?

I'm not sure if you have seen our video on our website but we have certain features (e.g. - invoicing functionality and rooming list feature) in the group organiser's dashboard already. There are lots of features which we could potentially add down the line to add value to their overall offering.

We are essentially looking for an alternative revenue stream, because we are not converting enough groups through our website. We don't want to arrive at a situation where hotels aren't winning any business through our website. So we are essentially hoping to move away from commission to something else.
