One of the easiest ways to drive more bookings is by spreading the word right in your own neighborhood. Swimply makes this simple with custom postcards that link directly to your listing.
These postcards are a great way to reach people nearby who may not yet know they can book your pool.
🖨️ Step 1: Download Your Custom Postcard
You can generate a ready-to-print postcard directly from your Swimply account:
- Log into your Swimply account
- Go to the Pro tab
- Navigate to the Promote section
- Download your unique postcard
Each postcard includes a QR code that links directly to your pool listing, making it incredibly easy for people to scan and book.
📍 Step 2: Print and Prepare
Once downloaded:
- Print copies at home or through a local print shop
- Use thicker paper or cardstock for a more polished feel
- Consider printing in color to make your pool stand out
You don’t need hundreds to start—even a small batch can go a long way.
📌 Step 3: Distribute Around Your Community
Focus on high-traffic, local spots where your ideal guests already spend time:
Great places to leave postcards:
- Coffee shops
- Local gyms or fitness studios
- Community centers
- Family-friendly businesses (daycares, kids activity spaces)
- Apartment buildings or condo boards (where allowed)
- Local bulletin boards
Tip: Always ask for permission before leaving materials at a business.
🎯 Why This Works
- Targets people closest to your pool (your most likely guests)
- Builds awareness with neighbors who may become repeat customers
- QR code makes it instant and frictionless to book
- Stands out more than digital ads in a local setting
💡 Pro Tips
- Replenish postcards regularly in spots that get good traction
- Combine this with your Instagram strategy for even stronger results
- Mention in your listing that you’re “featured locally” to build credibility
🚀 Final Thought
You don’t need a big marketing budget to grow your bookings—sometimes the most effective strategy is simply letting your neighbors know your pool is available.
With just a few printed postcards and a bit of local outreach, you can turn nearby foot traffic into steady bookings all season long.
