Welcome back to The Glamping Business Round-Up with Vicki Jones & John Maddy, in association with the Glamping Industries Trade Association (GITA). In this episode, we sit down with Sarah Orchard (Get Fully Booked) to dig into how glamping sites should approach marketing in 2025 and beyond.

Sarah is a seasoned strategic marketing consultant, founder of Get Fully Booked, and co-owner of The Hudnalls Hideout luxury treehouse. Her approach is built on helping hosts and glampsite owners increase direct bookings, strengthen their brand, and rely less on commission-heavy agents.

• Clever ways to attract different customer demographics (families, couples, off-season guests)
• Building and leveraging email marketing funnels to nurture bookings
• What your website needs
• How to set and manage your marketing budget effectively
• The role of Sarah’s membership, The Fully Booked Business Club™, for ongoing support, training, and accountability for hosts and glamping businesses
