paper notebook

Why is managing bookings 'on the cards' a risk you cannot afford to take?

Still keeping a booking calendar in a notebook or on loose sheets of paper? For many accommodation owners, this is still an everyday occurrence - but the truth is that it's a solution that sooner or later... will pay off.

1. Overbooking - don't ask, when happens. Ask, how many times.

Manual records increase the risk of errors. One unnoticed change, one phone call without a pen at hand - and disaster is ready. Two bookings for the same room? Nerves, apologies and a guest who is unlikely to return.

2. lack of statistics is a blind job

How many bookings did you have last month? Which room is the most popular? What is your occupancy rate at weekends? Managing 'by feel' works until you need concrete data. And these - on paper - simply do not exist.

3. the paper will not remind you of anything

You won't get notification of a guest's arrival, you won't notice a cancelled booking, you won't find out who hasn't paid the deposit. You have to remember everything yourself, and every day of the season is dozens of little things, after all.

4. the paper gets lost. The paper gets confused. Paper gets out of sync.

You cannot share your calendar with a colleague. You won't check anything while you're away from the facility. And you won't back up in case your notebook gets flooded or lost.
