Cheap and easy marketing idea

[Ben205]

Hi. I thought you might be interested in an idea we've put into practice that might help promote your place. We've made up a postcard that guests can colour in and send to family and friends.

It's too early to know if we'll get bookings but guests seem to like them. And not just the children!

Total cost was less than the price of a night's stay.

If you want more details (or help with the artwork), message me.

Cheers.

@Ben205, @Kelly149,

You both have some very great ideas.  They better suited for sending the cards within a domestic postal service or to a country with reliable mail service.

lol @Debra300 our mail to & from New Zealand is at least 4 weeks delay with sailing vessels stranded in international waters.

Did you have access to buying stamps to post mail during your lockdown?

Our Post Offices & shops that sell stamps were all closed which is crazy as been able to buy stationary & stamps is an essential service.

 It's times like this one  has time to write a hand written letter..

& send cards or a parcel to those on their own.

@Helen427,

I just made mention of the postal service, because I know in the Caribbean that mail service often does not include residential delivery.  With the advent of email, texting/phone apps, social media, and online billing, folks infrequently go to the post office to retrieve mail.  Most stamps sold are for stamp duties, and not postage.

@Ben205 et al - since I'm a remote host I also wanted to come up with something inexpensive and unique.  One of these notepads is put by each bed:

Hey @Ben205,

It's soooo nice to see you back in the CC and with such a great post. I hope you and your family are keeping well. 

Lovely idea, thanks for sharing. I remember hearing that the adult colouring booking are super popular and so I can see why your guests enjoy these cards. Did you draw the design yourself?
