Routing your own customers through the Book Me Now process on the eSpeakers Marketplace is a great way to raise your ranking and credibility in Marketplace's search results. Every job completed through Marketplace raises your ranking in the search results, no matter how the customer arrived. When a customer uses your Book Me Now button and completes the booking process through the Marketplace system (free to you and to them), they are able to leave a review that gets top priority.
When an event organizer uses the Book Me Now button from your own web site, the standard Marketplace finder's fee does not apply -- there is no cost to you.

  2. When the visitor chooses a date, a live availability check is performed against your eSpeakers calendar. This makes the form very useful to the potential buyer.

  3. Customer names are NEVER displayed; only the location and time. When you add an event to your calendar and mark it CONFIRMED and PERSONAL, it is displayed simply as "unavailable", with no location or time listed.
  4. Once the potential buyer has completed the form, two things happen:
    1. You and your staff are notified immediately via email.
    2. The event goes onto your eSpeakers calendar as a lead, complete with all the detail and contact information collected.
