Publish a clear date-by-date schedule and distinguish opening hours from booking availability and customer support. A business can be open while a particular service is unavailable.
What could the software help with?
Keep a record of festive hours and use it to update your website, booking pages and relevant business listings. Automated responses can point customers to the same information if they are maintained accurately.
A practical example
A shop is open on Christmas Eve but stops taking collection orders earlier. Showing both times helps customers understand the service they can actually use.
Where should you start?
- Confirm opening and service hours
- Update the pages customers use
- Include the reopening date
- Remove outdated festive notices afterwards
Questions and answers
Should Christmas hours be on every page?
They should be easy to find from the pages customers use, without creating conflicting versions across the site.
Can software update every listing automatically?
Only where the systems support a suitable connection. Check each channel rather than assuming an update reaches all of them.
