You access your Special Offers listings in your Property Page Control Panel via Your Account – Properties – Special Offers. This includes Seasonal Offers that are used to enable Members to promote remaining availability during specific high-demand periods.
You can have one of each available Offer for each Property Page. If you have a multiple page (a single EmbraceScotland Property Page representing more than one unit/property), please use the descriptive text to provide details of the availability within selected time period.
Click the ‘Add New Offer’ wording to create a new Offer.
Choose the Offer you want from the drop-down list. The ‘date window’ for permitted availability will be displayed.
This should be a short, eye-catching description of what you are offering. Try to avoid the obvious, such as “Cottage Available” or “Highland Cottage”. Go for something more like “Lakeside chalet with open fire”, “25% Off Selected Short Breaks” or “Elegant Townhouse near Castle, with FREE entry tickets”. It should be no more than 100 characters (including spaces).
Tick this box if you don’t want the Offer to display on EmbraceScotland. This feature can be used to ‘store’ different wordings of Offers for future use. It can also be used to ‘take down’ the offer when you have filled the vacancy, without deleting the wording.
Please enter the price of the period you have available, typing the £ sign and also wording to indicate how long it covers – per week, per night, per month.
This is the date when your availability or offer begins (not the first date you make information about it available). This date must be within the date ‘window’ determined for the section concerned – such the usual boundaries of the relevant holiday season, or the boundaries agreed for the particular Offer promotion
You choose the Start Date by clicking in the date box, which then displays a calendar. Click the date when your availability starts.
This is the end-date of the availability or offer period which begins on your Start Date, or the end date of any special price or conditions you are offering. The End Date Calendar works in exactly the same way as the Start Date one.
Your entry will automatically be removed when your End Date passes. But is it the responsibility of the Member to log on and manually remove the entry as soon as you have let the time period being advertised.
This should be a short description of the property, location and/or your offer and should be no more than 300 characters (including spaces). If you have more that one property, or more than one time period, available this is where you can state this (instead of having more than one entry).
