How Do You Increase Your Bed Occupancy Rates and Increase Your Daily Rates?

Ways to Bring More Visitors to Your B&B and Guesthouse and to Make More From Each Visitor

What occupancy level are you operating at?  Anything over 75% is good but below that you need to find more ways of filling your reservation book.

British weather does nothing to encourage UK visitors to holiday in this country.  The cost of transport and eating out deters international holidaymakers from all but the briefest of stays.

How, then, do you increase your occupancy rates and put up your prices so that you make a living from your business?  It’s not uncommon for one half of a couple that runs a B&B or guesthouse to have another job so that they have a regular income.

Why Choose Parr Excellence Business Limited?

Two of our presenters have many years experience in the hospitality trade.  One of them worked in the hotel trade for a time.  Together they’ve helped B&B’s and restaurants market their businesses.  When friends with a B&B need a break, they run the business for them in their absence.  They understand the hard work involved in the day-to-day running of B&B’s and guesthouses and how difficult it can be to increase occupancy rates.  They’re also familiar with operations in areas where there are lots of B&B’s close together, such as in Scotland. One of them writes a regular column for Bed and Breakfast News.

This means that they’re able to give you industry-specific hints and tips that help you get more repeat business, attract new visitors and set rates that you and your customers like.

Who should attend?

Owners, proprietors and directors of B&B’s and guesthouses who would like to increase their occupancy rates and be paid a fair rate for the effort they put into running their business.
