Get More Direct Bookings with Sarah Orchard

THE FULLY BOOKED BUSINESS CLUB - hospitality marketing training membership

I've saved over £65,000 in 3 years by taking 100% direct bookings in my holiday business.

Now I'm sharing my exact marketing tactics with you!

Are you an Airbnb host, holiday cottage or glampsite owner fed up with handing over your hard-earned cash to commission-hungry booking agents every month?

But you're not sure how to go direct?

I will show you!

DO YOU OFTEN FEEL...

That you'd love more direct bookings but you are unsure how to make it happen.

You'd benefit from more 'know-how' and confidence to use marketing tools and tech such as ChatGPT, Facebook Ads, Instagram Reels, SEO, Google Analytics, or using Mailchimp for email marketing.

You're spending too much time on social media without seeing the direct booking benefits.

You'd love support from a fellow host and direct booking marketing expert who walks the walk (and isn't just all hot air!) to help you get over your marketing sticking points.

You like quick and straight (no fluff!) answers to your business issues.

Then you're in the right place.

I created THE FULLY BOOKED BUSINESS CLUB™ to provide a supportive place where you can learn, take action, grow your direct bookings and solve those common marketing challenges that you often face alone.

"I’m feeling very proud 😊 I’ve moved from 100% OTA (agent) bookings to 74% direct bookings! My 2024 calendar is almost fully booked. 👍 I’ve come a long way thanks to Sarah Orchard 🙌🙌💗"

The Fully Booked Business Club was the best value any small business owner could ask for! Sarah's training did not disappoint. I learned so much that I am applying to my rentals and to my other small businesses as well! As a busy mom, I really enjoyed listening to the courses at my own pace. The live sessions were so helpful and provided a lovely community to connect with other holiday cottage owners.

Hello I'm Sarah...

An award-winning marketing strategist, #1 best-selling author, podcaster, and fellow host, who helps Airbnb hosts, holiday cottage and glampsite owners master their marketing to maximise their commission-free direct bookings.

I am so glad you are here. This is your opportunity to banish the marketing overwhelm and confidently up your marketing game this year!

I have saved my own holiday business over £65,000 in online booking agent commission in our first 3 years with 100% direct bookings!

It doesn't matter what type of holiday or hospitality business you have - my marketing advice and techniques will work for you. You don't have to have a treehouse either! I've successfully filled with direct bookings: holiday cottages, gastro pubs, yurts, horseboxes, gites, safari tents, and independent boutique hotels. It's based on what I have learnt from 30 years in marketing and getting results for hundreds of 1:1 clients - no BS, no tricks.

No more guesswork trying to figure it all out for yourself. My Club members call me the "Problem Solver"! I'm here to help you master your marketing to get more direct bookings - so you have more profit in your pocket for you and your family or the things you want to do. No more lining the "big boys" purses!!

"I do more marketing now than I’ve ever done and starting to feel more confident. I didn’t realise until I look back but you’ve brought me a long way.”

GOT A QUESTION? I'VE GOT IT COVERED!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How do I access the Club?

The Club is accessed in a dedicated membership portal and you will be given access to the exclusive Members Only Facebook group on joining.

What format does the Club take?

The Club is a monthly subscription-based membership which gives you access to the exclusive Members Only Facebook group, plus one monthly training workshop, unlimited training video library for playback anytime, weekly ‘Marketing Helpdesk’ Zoom troubleshooting drop-in advice sessions with Sarah, a Website Audit (top tier/annual plan members only), cheatsheets, checklists, templates, weekly fresh content ideas and real examples, video lessons, bonus trainings, plus access to Sarah and fellow members for networking and support 365 days per year!

How much does the Club cost?

The Club is either £35 a month subscription or £350 as an annual one-off recurring subscription - payable in advance, saving £70 (2 month’s free membership).

I'm so busy, how much time do I have to commit?

The Club is designed to fit around your business. Dip in and out as you need to. The more you put in, the more you will get out! But as a club, there is no minimum time commitment (excludes Annual Plan + Marketing Momentum top tier subscriptions) and all content is available on demand after it is published, so you can go at your own pace when it suits you best.

Can I cancel at any time?

If you have a monthly subscription, there is no contract and you can cancel at any time. No questions asked! Access to all Club videos and resources ends immediately on cancellation.

I'm not based in the UK, can I still join?

Yes! The Club is a vibrant international community. All topics are helpful for all businesses, no matter where you are based. The time difference isn’t a problem as all videos will be available after the event in the group, and on demand to watch at any time.

What type of businesses can join?

The Club is unique in that it is designed solely for tourism, holiday and hospitality, so all training and content is geared towards those types of businesses. But other business owners would benefit too.

Any business that delivers an ‘experience’ to its customers will benefit from real-life examples and practical marketing ideas that really work. So if you run a B&B, pub, café, independent hotel, glamp site, spa & beauty therapy, yoga instructors, farm shop, golf course, or tourist attraction – this resource is for you!

Why does Marketing Momentum have a 3 month minimum sign up period?

Marketing takes a little time to see results. We'd all like to be an overnight success, but in reality, it means a few months' work to get results. As my top tier is an accountability and mentoring marketing membership, there is a 3 month minimum commitment.
