Yacht charter companies in Croatia are (mainly) thriving. There are more and more of them every year. The fact is that there are over 800 yacht charter companies in Croatia with over 4000 vessels. We are the strongest yacht charter force in the Mediterranean... But this force also needs to be a bit more organised.
Yes, we have the greatest number of vessels, 40% of the global yacht charter market, and one of the most beautiful coasts ever seen.
But we also have problems finding a workforce for yacht charters, and a great number of vessels means great competition.
In Croatia, competition has elevated the offer and provided better service for the end guests, but it has also brought (mostly) price dumping.
Yacht charter companies also need to organise their business and administrative processes better because competition is fierce, offers are enormous, and guests are becoming increasingly demanding.
But what does one yacht charter company need to ease the planning and execution of daily tasks?
Digitalisation of work processes, of course.
Set aside your "old ways" and prepare to step into the "now".
Digitalisation has been here for a while, and it seems it's here to stay.
And why shouldn't it? Digital platforms today can transform traditional workflows, automate routine repetitive tasks, centralise information, and provide real-time access to data.
There is no need to search through old paperwork or check your handwritten notes. But digitalisation is beneficial for all, particularly for yacht charter companies, for the following reasons:
Automating repetitive tasks such as document handling, scheduling, and invoicing reduces manual errors. It frees up valuable time to focus on more productive activities.
Digital tools minimise the risk of human error in record-keeping and document management, ensuring that all information is accurate and up-to-date.
Automated reminders and notifications can help your yacht charter company stay up to date with all regulatory requirements and renewals.
Centralised platforms streamline communication between team members, ensuring everyone can access the same information and coordinate effectively.
One of these platforms is eAssist, an intuitive platform that centralises administrative and business processes.
eAssist platform allows for effective management of business units, personnel records, and work equipment. By centralising these components, your yacht charter company can ensure that all your operations are aligned and functioning efficiently. This leads to better coordination and oversight.
eAssist streamlines the process of generating offers, work orders, and invoices. It also makes it easy for yacht charter companies to quickly respond to client inquiries and manage their financial transactions with precision.
eAssist automatically sends notifications about the expiration of vital records, such as licenses, certifications, and insurance policies. This proactive approach ensures that all necessary documentation is always up-to-date. This feature also enhances communication and ensures that important information reaches the right people at the right time.
All documents in eAssist are stored in a centralised system, providing easy and organised access. This eliminates searching through multiple systems or physical files, saves time and reduces possibility of losing important documents.
The platform enables the intuitive generation of forms and various reports, which can be customised to meet the business's specific needs. This simplifies data collection and reporting, making gathering insights and making informed decisions easier.
eAssist is highly adaptable to different sectors and business needs. Whether a company is in yacht chartering, logistics, or another industry, the platform can be tailored to fit specific operational requirements, ensuring maximum efficiency and effectiveness.
Obviously, the yacht charter world is highly competitive, and it has become essential to run a well-organised business and have neatly arranged administrative processes.
eAssist offers many benefits, including increased efficiency, improved accuracy, compliance, and data-driven decision-making.
Using eAssist, yacht charter companies and all others, can organise their operations, reduce administrative burdens, and enhance their overall business performance. This ultimately leads to more time for other tasks, such as bookings and making more time to devote to your guests.
