Table4ME partner restaurants now bookable online through www.dubaicityguide.com and www.abudhabicityguide.com


Table4ME, the region's leading online restaurant reservations and table management system, has partnered with Cyber Gear's portals in the UAE to offer its restaurant partners extended reach for their online table bookings through http://www.dubaicityguide.com and http://www.abudhabicityguide.com.

This partnership will see Table4ME's partner restaurants bookable online on both web portals, which means diners can book their favourite outlet online and receive an instant table confirmation.

Table4ME's restaurant partners will have the opportunity to target their diners with bespoke promotions on both portals allowing them to manage their tactical campaigns and offers through the click of their mouse and track production to the cover, all fully automated.

This online booking tool is unique in that, unlike other semi-online reservation services that rely on e-mails, faxes or telephone calls to confirm bookings, Table4ME synchronises with the restaurant's electronic diary to check actual availability and confirms reservations instantly. This way, Table4ME completely automates the reservation process, just as it is done in the airline and hotel industries.

Sharad Agarwal, CEO of Cyber Gear commented, "We are happy to partner with Table4Me to offer online reservation facility for participating restaurants through our UAE city guides."

Tiina-Maija Bergman, Managing Partner of Table4ME said, "We are delighted to be able to offer this online booking tool to our restaurant partners in the Middle East, allowing them to expand their market reach and maximize the revenue opportunities for their restaurants." She added: "Over the past few years we have seen exciting growth in the online restaurant reservations business in the UAE and this partnership is testimony to the growing demand for online services".

About Table4ME
Table4ME was born out of a frustration with the hospitality industry, where 90% of a hotel's efforts were dedicated to its' rooms division- sales people, marketing people and technology solutions. In regions such as the Middle East where food and beverage contribute a significant portion to a hotel's total revenue, this disparity in support resources led the drive to create a low cost regional restaurant management and distribution solution in partnership with Restaurantdiary™, a leading online restaurant reservations and table management system, under the brand name 'Table4ME'.

After having studied the market in detail, it was apparent that the days of expensive, complicated technology were over. In a world of web solutions, costly systems involving hardware and software licenses should no longer be a restaurant's only option. More importantly any partner solution should prove their worth before asking for a large upfront fee or payment.

The model is simple - Table4ME provides restaurant partners with a fantastic table management and reservations solution to help optimize yield, manage guest relationships more effectively, track marketing campaign returns, and reduce operational costs by streamlining reservation processes. That's the first part of the journey. The second part is their distribution support. Table4ME develop and manage a network of marketing channels to ensure that restaurant partners are given the optimum sales, marketing and distribution exposure 24/ 7, 365 days a year.

On a global level, Restaurantdiary™ successfully processed over 9 million covers in 2010. In short, Table4ME help restaurants build their cover story and it's usually a very exciting and profitable one.
