Case Study: Middlebury Snowbowl boosts ski school sales and season pass revenue with accesso Paradox and SKIDATA

Middlebury Snowbowl boosts ski school sales 35% with Accesso

Middlebury Snowbowl, a historic alpine ski area owned by Middlebury College, sought to modernize its resort operations and revenue streams. The challenge involved introducing access control, creating a single payment system, launching online season pass purchases, improving snow school administration, and unifying their operations on a single platform. To address this, they partnered with vendor accesso and implemented the accesso Paradox and SKIDATA systems.

The solution from accesso provided a full webstore for online sales, unified reporting across the resort's alpine and Nordic facilities, and RFID access gates. This implementation resulted in significant, measurable growth: a 24% increase in season pass revenue, a 35% rise in ski school sales, a 27% growth in retail/rental sales, and a 6% boost in daily ticket sales. accesso's platform delivered operational visibility, reduced fraud, and allowed the resort to collect revenue weeks before the season started.
