Sam, Ready for my close up. Good looking let me tell you. Get more bookings. Aw, that'd be nice. Giving me tips, tools and advice. Yeah, you're gonna get em hun. You're gonna sit back, listen to Mark Simpson. Whoa. Having a blast. Gonna get it on the Bruce Lee podcast. Bruce Lee, like Bruce Lee. Cause it's so hard and the T is loose leaf making up those rhymes. Don't write it, just do it loosely. If you want my respect, you're better butt direct. Mmm. Here are the words in the podcast. That's what comes next.
All right, good morning, good afternoon, good evening and welcome everybody. So this is going to be the final part of the series and I'm really excited for it. I have been documenting slowly over the course of the last 90 days all of the work that we have been doing in the Boostly Academy. So we've been doing a 90 day quick start to more direct bookings challenge and it was just a nice idea that I had back end of last year because normally when people come into Debuce Lee Academy, I just let them go in an open vault. And so I just say right, here you go, here's all the training. And people just go off and do bits and then report back into the Facebook group. But I'm always one to survey, I'm always one to get feedback. Maybe it's the hospitality in me, but I always want to make sure that the service that I provide is the best that's out there. And one of the big feedback that was coming in was that a lot of people were feeling overwhelmed. And I totally get it. I've been part of many courses and masterminds and things of things of things. And I go in and it's just, wow, it's all there. So I wanted to have a really structured start to their experience in the Boostly Academy. So hence we, we, I came up with a 90 day quick start to more direct bookings guide and it's gone really, really well. It's, it's, it's got some really good feedback out of, I think we had about 90 people that stuck with it consistently. Only one person has said that it's not for them. So that's really encouraging. And this phase, the final phase has been business bookings and so far, just to recap if this is the first time that you've watching one of these, we've done pricing, we've done Customer Avatar, Ideal guest, we've done email marketing, we've done Facebook ads, and now we've done Business bookings and we've been doing it for the last three weeks. This final week, excuse me, has been a sprint. So we've done something a little bit different and I'll talk about that in a second. But we had two guest experts come in. We had Greg Dawban who is part of Comfy Workers, he's got a property group. And we had the fantastic Jessica Lorimer who is part of, she's been part of my world for a long, long time. Amazing podcast. She focuses purely on corporates and, and, and how to sell to corporates, how to get in front of corporate companies and we really fine tuned it in for the world of hospitality. Really love both of them coming in and we've been working on a lot of really cool things but there's been some really good conversations had and a lot of people have been in my world and being part of the academy, maybe not used to being proactively going to corporate companies before, but now they've got a script, they've got tactics on how to get to the right person and we've, we've given them tools as well. So we give them email templates and those have been used really well. So I've really enjoyed this. I've fantastic, I really have enjoyed it. I've been massively appreciative to everybody who's taken action and I've actually got a win to share. So let me just bring this up on the screen and what I love most is if anybody watched the marketing review that I did at the, at the start of the week, you will recognize this amazing person. So Sasha, she, on the night that we did it, just before we went live, she said, listen, there's a chance that I've got a really big booking coming in tomorrow, but I don't want to say anything, I don't want to jinx it, but it came in. So let me just read it. Sasha. So when I received my first long term booking of the year, long term in my eyes, as it's a new client, seven weeks as of yesterday, with the potential to extend rather than just sharing my win, I thought I'd share how I did it in case it's useful to others. So I'm not going to share how she did it because that's just for our Beauxley Academy members. But that's fantastic. So a seven week booking, Sasha's just got the one property in Luton. So this is really covered bills and, you know, and a really good booking. So well done. And again, this is just all down to really good action taken. And this is why I wanted to do. I love doing these first days just to document in the process because you get to see the journey. So we have finished our 90 days now, which is, which is fantastic. I'm about to open enrollments for the next round of 90 days. If you're going to go to boostlyacademy.com you can find out exactly everything that we do. But I just wanted to say well done to every single one of you Team Boastly members. It's, it's been awesome. It's been great. And it's been, it's been a really big learning process, I think for me more than anything how to structure this 90 days because like I said, I've never done this before. It's always just been an open vault. So to be able to have this system and a structure in place is fantastic. And if you are watching this, whether it's live with Win now, I know we've got about a dozen people watching live with me now or if you're watching back on the replay, if you are a Team Boostly member, just put your hand up and say hi. Say hi and let us know your feedback and how you found it. And the final bit of good news that I want to share with you is that on January 6, so after the New Year break, January 6, I started a accreditation process. So there are a lot of people now who do courses in, in my world, property, hospitality, you name it. And I wanted to do something that just separated Bruce Lee from everybody. And the one thing that nobody else has gone through is the accreditation process. So this is where like a governing body will go through and go through everything that we're doing, all of the training, how it's presented, all of the stuff, and it will then get hopefully accredited. So I can't say much, but I had a little phone call a couple of days ago to say that it's been, the first round has been approved and it's just got to go through a couple more little signatures and then we will get that full nod, which is fantastic. So a lot of really good things happening and I'm really excited to share and do and show everybody the next steps. And so, yeah, everybody. So we've got girl watching, we've got Jane watching. Hello and thank you very much to you two and to everybody, everybody who is, who has joined in and being part of it and is continuing to grow and figuring out these new tactics, these, these, these new tactics that might, something that you might have heard of in the past, but now it's just been able to be tweaked for, for us in hospitality. So this has been the end of the series. What I'm planning to do with these videos that I've put together is I'm going to turn them into one big video and I'll probably release it on the YouTube channel, on the Facebook, the LinkedIn, Instagram, everywhere and, and really just document the full journey of what we've been doing. But for now, thank you and if you want to find out more, boostlyacademy.com we're now taking on new enrollments. And if you're watching this and if you would like to increase your direct bookings, if you would like to not build your house on someone else's land, not have to rely on OTAs to bring in bookings and you want to learn the tactics, the tools and the training on how to do that, I thoroughly encourage you to go and check out boostleacademy. Com. But for now, thank you for watching and I shall see you.
