Discount code -- when a guest contacts me directly to request a booking, I would like to be able to offer a discount immediately when I generate a booking request in the platform. I want to input it in the lead form and send an email with the discount already applied.
I don't want to force the guest to go to the website and enter a code in order for a discount to apply properly to the rents and not the post-tax costs. First, they might not do it correctly, and second, they might reconsider prior to payment. I want to reduce the booking process to the minimum steps necessary for them to commit.
Ideally, it works like this:
I open the calendar to check availability. I click on a few days for a listing, and Hostfully opens a pop-up with the "Add Lead" form. It shows the charges for those dates, as well as taxes, and gives me the option to "Add Line Item". If I use this option to discount the cost, it's deducted from the bottom line, which is AFTER taxes. I'd like to discount the rent cost, and then have the appropriate amount of tax applied. Instead, there could be an option to "Add pre-tax discount" that is either a percentage or dollar amount. Then I can proceed to add client info and click "Save and open mailer" to send the request to book. In the end, a client only has to open the email and click "Book" to proceed.
