Boostie Podcasting podcast season 8, we are on Friday, the 27th of March.

0:13.6

We are in the coronavirus series,

0:15.5

and we're talking about how you can be proactive

0:17.4

on the back of this to still bring in bookings,

0:19.8

whether it's in the short term, the medium,

0:22.0

or the long term. This whole series is going to be

0:24.4

dedicated to that and helping the hospitality industry fight back. Today I invited on

0:29.2

Danny from Optimize My B&B. He's got at Danny B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B-B for his business account.

in the Philippines and now he's in Barley. So he's been able to see a totally different
