Hello, my name is Mark Simpson from Boostly. I give hosts just like you the tools, the tactics, the training and the confidence to go and get more direct bookings. Now, my friend, friends at Hostfully have asked me for my big guest experience tip. How can we enhance your guest experience? And you know the main thing, real simple, just remember their name. It's something that I think goes amiss a lot in our industry, but it's sometimes the simplest things that mean the most. What I love to do and what I think everybody should do is as soon as a booking comes in, pick up the phone, give them a call, do a WhatsApp message. If you're not confident, know doing it, picking up the phone, doing it old school, just pick up the phone. Literally, you've got WhatsApp Telegram, free marketing tools right there. Free tools. Send a text message, a voice note, a video message, and just thank them, thank them by name for making a booking. If you're really busy and you've got a team that can do this, great, But I personally would do it yourself. It goes that extra route that so many people don't do. And again, just always be putting yourself into the, into the mind or the heart of the, of the guest and think, okay, if you were booking a place, what would you love to see? I mean, yeah, you've got things like welcome hampers. You've got things, you know, like later surprising him with a later checkout, X, Y and Z. But I think sometimes the simplest are the best. So my advice to you, remember your guest name goes a long way. Send a little text, do a little call. And when you do a call or do a text, just remember those four little words that mean anything. Do you know anyone? So do you know anyone that's coming to the area as well? You know, do you know anyone else who needs accommodation? That little starter of a, of a question can mean and result in so many possibilities. But again, find them, ask them, you know, why you come into the area, what are you doing? What are you looking to do? How can we make your stay extra special? These little things that you can do. And again, you can literally do it in five minutes, quick WhatsApp message, you can do it. While walking, walking the dog, doing the changeover. Whatever you're doing. It's, it's really easy to do. Cost nothing and has a maximum return of investment on the other end. All right, well, thank you so much for tuning in today's episode and this today's lesson.
