I know this is just a trial run for you, but you don't have a confirmed booking till you have the money. My sequence of events would be: 1. Answer enquiry 2. Client wishes to book 3. Send booking form, T&Cs and details of how to pay 4. Money (deposit usually) arrives 5. Send booking confirmatio...

I've just logged in to my fritiden.se account and also have an enquiry from Karin sitting there from 31st March. The google translate of the message is 'We have not decided yet but me and my partner are wondering if it is available w.36'. Well done to the site for spotting it as spam/scam and withh...

So, nothing to add to what I'm already doing! I put the "translated by google translate" at the top of the reply, and also include the English version of the email. I don't attempt to translate the Booking Form, though- just the parts that the guest needs to fill in.

Do you speak English? German? Swedish?

How do you handle foreign language enquiries? I speak French and my husband can get by in German, so we're fine for those enquiries. I'm currently dealing with a Swedish enquiry, in Swedish! (Unusual, as most Scandinavian enquirers have excellent English). I use Google translate (which has improved ...

I too was prompted by this thread to check my listing. I had an enquiry sitting in my fritiden.se inbox since March 31 :shock: It was for dates that were booked, but like my fellow LMHatters, I like to reply to all enquirers. I have sent an apologetic email and suggested an alternative date but I do...

So far, I have sent the same feedback email to return guests, saying that I was sending it again if there was anything they wanted to add. I'm interested in what others do, though, as I think there's a better way to do it!

Aasta, that link to your facebook page isn't working for me. A suggestion to LMH'ers- if you like a FB page, say hi and tag your own FB page so that others will like you back. You tag your page by putting "@" in front of your facebook page name. As was mentioned before, it's often hard to ...
