The homestay/Airbnb business is a very good business when it comes to ROI but can the low season can be very demoralizing and that's why you need measures in place to combat the low season. Another way is using dynamic pricing. What is Dynamic pricing one may ask, Dynamic pricing is a pricing strategy that utilizes variable prices instead of fixed ones. At its core, the idea behind the dynamic pricing model is to sell the same product at different prices to different groups of people. In this model as host you make the most during the high season so that during the low season you can afford to give discounts and lower prices to attract more guests.

During the low season you want your listing's online visibility to be very good so that you can secure a booking. This can be achieved by diversifying your booking across the different booking channels, using your social media handles and also through maximizing on SEO traffic. During this period you need to make sure you are targeting the long-stay guests who book for longer periods of time and make sure you are getting your bills covered so that you won't use your savings. During low seasons, most hosts just want to break even and survive the dry period without having to dip into their pockets to cater for overheads and other expenses.
If you are worried about how to prepare for the low seasons of your homestay, reach out and talk to me. I will be happy to share helpful tips on what you can do to minimize any negative impact.

As entrepreneurs we always need to have solutions to problems we encounter along the way. One of the problems is how to maneuver the slow season, one way you do this is by giving weekly or monthly discounts. This helps you get guests who book weekly or monthly instead on a daily basis. This is mainly targeted for digital nomads who will be looking for a place that is conducive for them to work while they are travelling. This is meant to encourage and attract guest to your listing and thus save you from the headache of your listing staying empty all month.

In business its always wise to prepare for a recession. This week we will look at a few tips that can help you in the Airbnb/homestay business. Diversifying your assets is a good idea, this helps since all your eggs are not in one basket. This basically means putting your money in other business ventures but still have some sort of Airbnb attachment to those businesses. A good example of this is a starting an Airbnb cleaning company or offering interior dรฉcor services to Airbnb owners. These are just a few examples you can diversify your investment portfolio but still be in the Airbnb business.

As we talk about location it is also important to have in mind who your target market is so you can choose the best location to meet their needs. Are you targeting digital nomads, families with kids, business travelers , couples on honeymoon, travelers on transit and so on. This also applies to your type of homestay you want to put up and who its best suited for, is it a serviced apartment, family home, a house near JKIA etc. So before putting up make sure you know your target market, their needs so that you can decide if the location you want is going to be good for them.
