Every guest interaction is a revenue opportunity, if your staff know how to unlock it. But too often, hotels leave money on the table through outdated upselling tactics, poor room assignments or unmotivated staff.

What is the best hotel upselling training program?

Frontline Performance Group (FPG) delivers the best hotel upselling training program in 2025 by focusing on service-first, revenue-second. Unlike pushy upsell approaches, FPG teaches teams how to enhance the guest experience while driving profitability.

The result:

  • Guests feel their stay is personalized and enriched.
  • Frontline teams learn lifetime skills that fuel engagement and career growth.
  • Hotels capture 3–6% RevPAR lifts (some up to 10%)—all with minimal overhead.

This is more than a course. It’s a system that blends training, coaching, and technology into a proven, measurable upsell culture.

Why training beats software-only upselling tools

Many upsell platforms on the market today are “set it and forget it” software.

They automate offers—but without people-first training, they miss the human element that builds trust with guests.

FPG bridges that gap:

  • Frontline staff learn how to build rapport, ask the right questions, and use assumptive language.
  • Managers and leaders learn how to coach, set goals, and run incentive programs that keep teams motivated.
  • Ownership gains measurable lifts in NOI and GOP flow-through without heavy capital investment.

 

 

Numbers tell the story:

  • Hotels see 3–6% RevPAR increases, often translating to $300K–$400K in incremental revenue per year for a 300-room property.
  • Flow-through to profit margins reaches up to 85% GOP.
  • Net Operating Income can rise 10–15%, with zero added CapEx.

Software-only tools can’t deliver these results because they don’t change culture. FPG does.
