Standardization Makes Every Dollar Work Harder
This specialized focus translates directly into measurable returns. When it comes to ROI, both Jason and Bobby emphasize that savings show up on multiple levels, not just on paper. Outsourcing IT instead of staffing internally can cut operating expenses by about 25 percent, while ESP's acquisition due diligence often surfaces hidden savings, such as redundant contracts or unused services, that can outpace ESP's annual billing. Bobby highlights the scaling effect: once a property's PMS, POS, and integrations are standardized, “you can then go to the other properties and put those standards into those properties.” That repeatability shortens onboarding for new acquisitions and gives owners portfolio-wide visibility.

The impact of an experience MSP doesn't stop at cost: smoother guest journeys translate into repeat bookings, stronger satisfaction scores, and higher revenue per available room (RevPAR). ROI goes beyond reducing expenses to how much more revenue a property can generate because they invested in the right integration of technology at the right time.

 
 
When Technology Becomes Invisible Guests Notice Everything Else

Technology isn’t just back-office. It’s at the center of guest experience. Jason explains that integration failures, such as credit card systems not talking to folio or guest billing systems, can tank reviews overnight. The right stack ensures that from mobile check-in to checkout, the stay is seamless.

Both speakers, drawing on years of travel experience, emphasize that true loyalty is built on consistency. Guests aren’t swayed by superficial upgrades but by the confidence that core services will always work as expected.
