83 Days, 8 Seconds: Why Your Guest Messaging Might Be Costing You Bookings

Guests take 83 days to book—but only 8 seconds to ghost you.

That’s the brutal math in 2025. They’ll message four other listings, skim your reply, and bounce if it feels stiff or lazy.

And that templated “Hi there!” isn’t helping.

In this episode of Seen. Booked. Sane., I break down what’s changing in guest behavior—and how small hotels, vacation rentals, and boutique stays can use smart AI tools (like Hospitable, TIDIO, and DACK) to reply faster, stay human, and book more nights.

We’re not handing the keys to a robot. We’re giving you a co-pilot that sounds like you.

Skip the script. Keep the soul. Get booked.
