Accommodation providers assessed by The AA or VisitEngland receive a glossy quarterly magazine full of useful features and articles. For the Spring 2022 edition, eviivo were invited to contribute five top tips to get summer staycation ready. These were:
Look Back at Your Bookings: have any new patterns emerged? And can you encourage these changes in booking behaviour to generate more direct bookings?
Understand Your Competiton: the imapct of the pandemic has sadly seen many accommodation businesses close – but new ones have opened too. Do you know who your current competitors are?
Welcome New Types of Visitor: dog ownership has rocketed. Is it time to welcome your guests’ four-legged family member?
Know the Area: after months of curtailed travel, we all know our local area better than ever before. What new places and hidden gems can you tell your guests about?
Meet Online Expectations: make sure your website is set up for online and mobile bookings and that guests can check-in and check-out online. Everyone is now much more used to keeping their distance from each other!
