3 Tips to Turning Your Website into a Direct Booking Machine

There's a major issue in our industry where hosts believe that they don't need a direct booking website. Instead they're just going to rely on Airbnb booking.com and their Verbo listings to generate bookings and revenue for their business. The problem with this is that when you are just relying on those platforms, you are never going to give yourself an opportunity to increase your profit and increase your direct bookings. My name is Mark Simpson of Boostly. I give hosts on all over the world the tools, the tactics, the training, but most importantly the confidence to increase your direct bookings. In this video I'm going to give you my top three tips on how you can get started with a direct booking website and start to build that confidence for your future potential guest to book with you.
