Spring Forward with bloom: New Booking Pages are Almost Here!
Packages: the latest update on freetobook.
Using freetobook packages you can now offer your customers extra value added inclusions and change the board basis for any specific package you wish to create.
Types of Package:
Added Meals – for example you may have a standard rate with Bed and Breakfast and want to offer a “Dinner Bed & Breakfast” rate, or a rate which includes a packed lunch.
You can also remove meals in a package, so if your standard rate is including breakfast you might want to have a package that does not include breakfast.
Value Added Service – Alternatively you might create a package which incudes bike hire or some other value added service special to your business. For example, you may collaborate with other local businesses and offer a golf or spa package, cookery or photography class, or tickets to a local attraction such as a theme park.
How you setup your packages is very flexible; you can change the board basis and add extra services -it’s completely up to you.
Packages are a fixed rate and can be restricted by:
If a package is available for a customer to book during their search they will see a new tab with the package title you have created. They can then easily switch between your package and your standard availability.
Packages are exclusive for your direct bookers so they also potentially give a great way to offer more value to your direct customers where you pay zero commission.
To start creating your own unique packages, head to the ‘Specials’ tab on your freetbook diary and select ‘Packages’. Click ‘Create Package’ and start filling in all your package details – simple!
