Coach hire bookings have gone through the roof at Coach Broker this January
Despite the fact we’re only half way through January, Coach Broker are already reporting a record number of bookings since the start of the new year, and are even predicting that 2010 will be their most successful year to date.
With the aid of some well orchestrated marketing campaigns, and heavily discounted coach hire rates on offer as part of their January sale, Coach Broker have been inundated with bookings for the coming year and beyond. Some customers have been so eager to make the most of the low cost prices offered as part of the New Year incentive, that the company have started taking bookings for 2011 and even 2012.
Popular dates such as Royal Ascot week and 6 Nations rugby weekends have been booking out extra fast, with limited availability already being noted for selected days. Coach Hire for weddings is also looking busy, especially during the peak months of July and August.
Extra sales staff have been drafted in to cope with the rush in bookings. Coach Broker is expanding at such a rate that the company has even had to relocate to new offices as it had simply run out of room at its former base.
Managing Director of Coach Brokers Ltd, Tej Randeva, isn’t surprised at the company’s current success as he says: “Year on year Coach Broker has progressed significantly, and is now fast establishing itself at the forefront of the Coach Hire industry in the UK. With our reputation for providing quality coach hire at a competitive rate, and our ability to offer our service nationwide, it’s no wonder we’ve achieved these fantastic sales figures within the first few weeks of 2010.”
I would much rather see a record number of bookings at a correct price. This would help to ensure that operators are able to carry out such work and remain able to maintain vehicles to the high standard required.
Artificial low prices help nobody in our business. It is complete stupidity to constantly force down prices whilst facing ever increasing costs.
Coach Broker should be doing their bit to keep prices at a viable level and not devalue coach operators in the eyes of any potential hirers. I am worth the price that I charge, and a whole lot more.
I somehow think that this comment, like others posted, will never see the light of day.
