Marketing Channels
Marketing channels are a great way to get more bookings.
The difficulty lies with keeping track of all those listings - however Bookster makes it easier than ever.
Once you've setup your property listing - we sync your property listing, pricing and availability with marketing channels - so you can manage everything from within Bookster.
