Guidesly Builds Momentum with Free Custom Websites for Guides
Jun. 7, 2022 (Boston) — Guidesly, the leading platform connecting anglers with guides, today announces they have created over 130 free custom websites for new guides. The websites help saves guides thousands of dollars on hosting, SSL, web design, and marketing fees and make it easier than ever for guides to manage their businesses online presence.
Guidesly’s dedication to guides is unwavering and continues to attract more guides to the platform. In the past year, Guidesly has seen an uptick of 800% in bookings.
“The number of guides joining the Guidesly family each month is remarkable and exceeding our expectations,” said David Lord, Founder and CEO. “It is no surprise we have seen a huge leap in bookings as more and more quality guides join the platform and anglers book trips with them. We are continuing to grow our guide roster and focus less on running the back end of their business and more on finding fish.”
With over 300 guides joining since the turn of the calendar, Guidesly now boasts over 550 vetted guides in 47 states around the country. To ensure each guide is given access to 1-on-1 support, Guidesly has increased its staff by 100%, hiring 30 new employees in 2022 alone.
To secure guides during times of high overhead costs, Guidesly has made its Point-of-Sale software free for all guides for the remainder of 2022. This is just one way Guidesly prioritizes the success of those on its platform. By investing in their user, Guidesly can recruit top talent to its platform, leading to the best possible angler experience.
“Guidesly has provided me with a free, up-to-date website that’s easy to navigate, has created more bookings, and most importantly, there's always somebody to call if there is an issue or a question,” said Captain Larry Miller, owner of Fishin’ All The Time Guide Service. “I highly recommend Guidesly for customers to book trips or for us guides who need a great business partner to simplify their operations.”
Guide success will always be at the forefront of everything Guidesly does. By investing in its guides, Guidesly will ensure a quality experience for both anglers and guides alike.
