Direct bookings: phone calls and walk-ins

Everyday Use · 5 min read

When a guest calls, do not send them to the website. Just put them on the calendar while they are on the line.

  1. Tap the empty slot where they want to book (right room, right time).
  2. Choose Direct Booking.
  3. Enter their name and phone, party size, and duration.
  4. Save. The slot is theirs.

Admin bookings play by different rules

For a first-time caller on a busy Friday, text them your booking link instead and let them book online with a deposit. Phone bookings without deposits are where Friday no-shows come from. Save direct bookings for regulars you know will show.
