Native Social Sharing for Reviews

We just rolled a new feature on profiles that allows you to share your rave reviews from customers on your social media channels to fill your feed and showcase to prospects what your customers love about your products.



What's New:

  • Dedicated Review Pages. Each review now has a dedicated landing page that you can share on social media.
  • Dynamic Image Generation.  When you share the dedicated review page link on social the app will dynamically generate an image with the review content on the fly.
  • Easy 1-Click Posting to Fill Your Feed. Since each review page has embedded functionality to dynamically generate a social share image with the review's content on the fly,  you no longer have to take manual screenshots or design a share image using the Canva template which means you can quickly and easily schedule posts just by adding links to your social media calendaring tool (ie. Hootsuite, Sprout Social, etc)

Migration From Add-Ons πŸ‘‰ Product Suites & Modules

Historically the way HTR has been structured is that in order to become discoverable in a category and generate leads, you needed to have a product listing/dedicated profile in that category.  If the product could be purchased as a standalone product then you would list is as such, and if it was a module/add-on for another core product--then you would list it as an add-on profile.


The problem with this is that in many cases it doesn't make sense to have to create (and manage) an entirely new profile for add-ons since in reality, many times these are just modules with premium capabilities and functionality of another core product suite.

That's why as of next month, HTR will be transitioning from add-ons -> Modules, here's how it works...

UPDATE: This change went live on May 6, 2022 Learn more

If you currently have add-on profiles your reviews will be migrated to the core product and your modules will be created automatically so there is nothing that you need to do, it will all be handled for you.

πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦ Hospitality for Peace Campaign is Now Live!

We're excited to share that the Hospitality for Peace initiative is now live! (view press release)

We've already raised $52,500 from fellow hotel tech companies to provide much needed humanitarian relief in Ukraine.

CURRENT FUNDING UP TO $393,227! track progress live


On top of that, corporate partners have committed to matching an additional $280,000 when the campaign reaches $100k (view corporate partners)

"Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much." ~ Hellen Keller

Needless to say, we're stronger and can make more of an impact when we work together as a community--and that's where you come in... 

  • In order to unlock the full amount of match donations, we need to raise $100k from the community during the 30-day campaign between now and April 15
  • Hotel tech companies have already donated $52,500 which means we only need to raise an additional $47,500k to unlock the full match donations
  • We need your help to spread the word to your employees, colleagues and customers to make sure we hit the $100k milestone needed to unlock the full corporate match donations

A few easy ways you can help: 

  1. Post on social media to help spread the word
  2. Email your customers and partners
  3. Email your employees & encourage them to share with their network
  4. Add the solidarity ribbon to your website
  5. Make a donation

To make it even easier for you to help spread the word and make an impact, we created copy/paste email templates and graphics for you to use.

We appreciate any support you and your team can provide to help maximize our impact as a community!
