#Bookdirect day is 2nd February 2022 - and to celebrate there is a very specially book being published that will be invaluable for all accommodation hosts around the world. Check out Mark Simpson's Bookdirect Playbook - full of tools tactics and training to help small businesses connect with their guests directly and give them the BEST of experiences. Booking direct avoids the costs to both guests and hosts of the large corporate marketing platforms like Skyes, AirBnB, Booking etc. who charge up to 25% commission so guests are losing out on valuable money to spend in our local communities on experiences, adventures and making memories.
