I had funny phone call today. Another call from a certain B&B directory that I cancelled and did not renew, as I put the $300 into TA and a link there.
She was astonished that we would not be listed with their directory, even though it rarely if ever sent us any business. She said to me disgusted "So you are not doing any marketing for your B&B at all!!?"
Just like the rude marketer who cannot understand how foolish we are to not advertise on the plastic cups at the pizza parlor, what is wrong with you people!
Thanks to everyone here who shares what works and what doesn't work for their B&B. It has been a lot of tossing money into the wind to nail down what works well for us and what is a waste of money. Don't let some salesperson try to sway you, you are the sales and marketing for your Inn, YOU make the calls, YOU pay the bills. They can take a flying leap.
