I'll tell you this...January is slow yes...if you book right before New Years...week after Xmas, would be the best possible time to book, as bookings are VERY slow up until then and owners start to get nervous. Then, right after New Years, we were getting over 200-250 email inquiries a day, it's the absolute busiest time of the year for inquiries for some reason, we were SWAMPED!
Not only were we not offering "deals" at that point, we could barely even respond to the emails we got so many, it was a nightmare! LOL (well..a good problem to have at the time actually!) I was getting a little nervous too before New Years since it had slowed to a snail's pace, but must just be due to the holiday season is all, then it booms again after New Years
