In this episode of the Luxury Rental Blueprint podcast, we delve into the secrets of direct bookings with Gil Chan, founder of Crafted Stays. Gil and his wife manage multiple short-term rentals and saw a gap in the market, leading to the creation of Crafted Stays. The platform enables hosts to build their own direct booking websites, avoiding the heavy reliance on OTAs like Airbnb and VRBO. Gil discusses the importance of understanding your guest avatar, particularly how he tailored his properties to cater to young families, and shares the benefits of direct bookings, including greater control and autonomy. He also provides practical tips on SEO, guest communication, and leveraging evergreen content to drive traffic. Tune in to learn how you can start building your direct booking strategy today and future-proof your rental business.Connect with Gil:Website 1: https://explorestaytoday.com/thingstodosmokiesWebsite 2: https://craftedstays.co/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/craftedstays/
