A short guide for salespeople using Advertising Boost to giveaway hotel stays for their promotions and to boost sales.

So you’ve decided to use hotel giveaways as gifts within your own business to help you promote your company and create more sales? That’s great – please feel free to use this short guide to help you understand each of the locations available and key booking tips.

Having used the service myself, booking over the phone is really simple – it is important to understand how the process works for each destination but once you have a feel for that, the whole process is straightforward and you can guide your hotel winners on how to book their stays.

Specify your giveaway location

Within the promotion or giveaway campaign that you run, you’ll need to decide on the location you wish to promote. If you’re in the USA, local destinations or Mexico are likely to be popular. In contrast, for Australians, Thailand and (soon to be added) Bali are likely to be more popular. Use the location information below to help.

The following countries currently have hotels within the Advertising Boost service;

  • USA
  • Mexico
  • Thailand
  • Spain
  • Bali (coming soon, estimated end August 2018)

All currencies shown in USD unless otherwise stated

Promotional Tools

Once you’re signed up with Advertising Boost, you’ll see that they have a range of tools to help you create landing pages, sales funnels, videos and more. What’s great is that they also specify those for each industry so, if you’re a real estate professional or a dentist, there is content for you.

If you would like any custom graphics, landing pages, or content developed please contact me and I would be pleased to help through my consulting business – Oasis.
