Direct Booking Marketing Plan – 90-Day Plan with Weekly Tasks, Channel Checklist, Repeat-Guest Emails & Scorecard, Word, No Canva
Direct booking marketing plan in one editable file: Direct Booking 90-Day Marketing Plan is a seven-section Word document that tells you what to do in each of thirteen weeks to get more guests to book with you directly. Every table and email is written out in full with sample wording and [bracketed] placeholders, so you edit a few details instead of starting from a blank page.
Why it is different. A content calendar tells you when to post and a checklist covers your website's search basics. This is the strategy document that ties them together: the weekly plan in three phases, the channel habits, the offer rules, a repeat-guest campaign, a launch checklist, a scorecard and a budget with a break-even check.
No Canva needed. Open the .docx in Microsoft Word, Google Docs (free) or Pages, replace the [bracketed] text and print the pages or send them as PDFs. Letter and A4 versions are both included.
Honest offers. The offer rules page says no fake "was" prices, a floor price and an expiry date on every offer. Channels named here are examples. All trademarks belong to their owners; not affiliated. The plan does not promise any number of bookings.
