DESCRIPTION

For this episode of the Airbnb toolbox, Alex shares the 5 things he does to make sure that his Airbnb listings get seen and convert people into guests. He shares what you need to know to keep your Airbnb properties occupied and generating income for you year-round.

Importantly, what Alex shares in this episode works for any platform and any type of Airbnb property.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Even if you have the best property in the area if your listing does not stand out and grab the attention of potential guests your business will fail.

• Your listing needs to stop people scrolling to find out more about what you offer.

• First impressions count, so your first photo has to be outstanding. Use it to showcase the best feature of your property.

• The first five photos, the power five, need to show off important features.

• Include something that will tempt the kind of client that typically rents your type of property in the title.

• Free parking is a massive selling point so make sure you mention it if it is available.

• Great views and outdoor spaces really tempt guests.

• Make your description engaging and informative.

• Be transparent and honest, if you are not you will end up with disappointed guests which leads to bad reviews.

• Use a dynamic pricing app to maximise your profit while still offering irresistible value for money.

• Actively seek out reviews. Alex explains how to do that during the episode.

• Reply to each review.

BEST MOMENTS

“The importance of a great listing cannot be overstated.”

“The more listings that go on these sites, the more we need to up our game and make sure that we are standing out.”

“Try to take the photo when there's plenty of natural light.”

“If you've got a massive driveway, which is really unique to your property, and you're serving contractors, that fact needs to be at the front”

“You don't want to say something generic, like “cosy flat in the city”.”

“Setting the right price is again, all about understanding your market.”

“I want to read reviews. If there's no reviews and the place looks amazing, I might well skip it.”

HOST BIOS

Alex & Pooh have built a portfolio of over 16 Serviced Accommodation Units and 10 Buy-To-Lets collectively over the last 5 years.

This AirBnB Business has allowed each of them to create their own tailor-made ‘lifestyle by design.’

Pooh chose to escape the corporate life as an electrical engineer instead to spend his time at home with his young and growing family, and Alex likes to spend most of his time in sunny Spain enjoying his love for road cycling or even hiking in the Tramuntana mountain ranges.
