SVH Hospitality Training

Wil je de gastbeleving verbeteren én de besteding per gast verhogen? Met de SVH Hospitality training ontwikkelt je team de vaardigheden om gasten beter te begrijpen, professioneel te adviseren en een gastvrije ervaring te creëren die gasten onthouden.

Deze inspirerende trainingsdag combineert hospitality, gastgerichtheid en teambuilding. Het resultaat: een sterker team, betere service en een hogere gasttevredenheid.

Veel bedrijven zien na deze training een structureel hogere gemiddelde besteding per gast.

Hospitality en teambuilding voor het hele team

De hospitality training is een interactieve en praktijkgerichte trainingsdag waarin medewerkers actief aan de slag gaan met gastvrijheid, communicatie en gastgericht werken.

Tijdens een bezoek hebben medewerkers vaak 17 tot 20 contactmomenten met een gast. Elk van deze momenten is een kans om:

  • een positieve indruk te maken
  • de gastbeleving te verbeteren
  • extra service te bieden
  • de besteding op een natuurlijke manier te verhogen

In deze training leren teams hoe zij deze momenten optimaal kunnen benutten.

Wat levert deze training op?

Na de hospitality training:

  • begrijpen medewerkers beter hoe gasten denken en kiezen
  • herkennen zij kansen om service en verkoop te verbeteren
  • ontstaat meer teamgevoel en samenwerking
  • wordt gastvrijheid bewuster en consistenter toegepast

Veel bedrijven ervaren na de training:

  • hogere gasttevredenheid
  • meer positieve reviews
  • een hogere gemiddelde besteding per gast

Bewust gastheerschap

Een belangrijk onderdeel van de training is bewust gastheerschap. Hierbij kijken we naar de psychologie achter gastgedrag en hoe medewerkers hier professioneel op kunnen inspelen.

Door bewust om te gaan met communicatie en gastcontact kunnen teams een sterkere beleving creëren voor gasten.

Tijdens dit onderdeel behandelen we onder andere:

  • gesprekstechnieken
  • verkoop- en adviestechnieken
  • effectieve vraagtechnieken
  • inspelen op (on)bewuste behoeften van gasten
  • non-verbale communicatie en de invloed daarvan
  • het creëren van een optimale gastbeleving

Het doel is altijd hetzelfde: gastvrij adviseren zonder opdringerig te verkopen.

Interactieve trainingsdag

De trainingsdag bestaat uit verschillende onderdelen en werkvormen, waardoor de training dynamisch en inspirerend blijft.

Onder andere:

  • praktijkvoorbeelden uit de horeca
  • interactieve opdrachten
  • teamdiscussies
  • concrete technieken die direct toepasbaar zijn

Na afloop kan het team direct aan de slag met de geleerde technieken in de dagelijkse praktijk.

Ook beschikbaar als terrastraining

Deze hospitality training is ook beschikbaar als speciale terrasvariant.

Hierin ligt de focus op:

  • gastcontact op het terras
  • upselling van drank en gerechten
  • snelheid en service tijdens drukte
  • optimale gastbeleving in het buitenseizoen

Ideaal voor bedrijven die hun team willen voorbereiden op een succesvol terras- of zomerseizoen.
