Website Details

Point of Difference

This will display at the TOP of your webpage.

We recommend using a short, snazzy description here as a marketing tool to direct customers to your property.  One or two lines is ideal here.  The point of difference is the opening statement that will be displayed in bold at the top of your main page of the Booking Centre’s website.  This is your first opportunity to really sell your business. Tell your customers why you are different from your competition.

Directions from your nearest town

Assume the customer has made it into the centre of town and direct them to your property from here.  Include a detailed description.  Enter in the street directions from the nearest town. Explain it clearly and from all possible directions. Try to include landmarks the guest will pass along the way so that they know they are on the right track. These directions are also displayed on the guest’s itinerary to make it easier for them to find you!

Business Description*

This is a wordier description which will display below your point of difference.  Describe to the customer a detailed description of your business and what they will love about it.  This is your chance to advertise your property.  Be creative and engage your reader!

For Booking Centre Staff Only (i.e. Key Details)

Text that you enter here will display to BookEasy Booking Centre staff only, in red (see example below).  You may want to include details that are important for them to know, for example "Can negotiate discounted rates in quieter periods.  Please call Kay to discuss".

For Itinerary Only

Text that you enter here will display to the BookEasy Booking Centre staff as well as the client and will be displayed on the client's itinerary.  You may have information that is important for them to know, for example 'Please call on mobile if arriving after 5pm', or if there is no information of this nature, you may just wish to say 'Thank you for booking to stay with us.  We look forward to meeting you'.
