5-Minute Airbnb Hack to Boost your Bookings
Hey All
You know those weeks when inquiries are flooding in faster than you can type? I had one of those recently across my properties. It got me thinking about efficiency and how we can keep our response rates high without sacrificing quality or personal touch.
I revisited a feature in Airbnb that I've used on and off: the saved messages function. It's tucked away in the account settings, but it's a gem for maintaining quick, consistent communication.
Here's a template I've been refining:
"Hi [Guest Name], thanks for your interest in [Property]. You've picked a great location for [trip purpose/season]. Happy to answer any specific questions about the place or area recommendations. Looking forward to potentially hosting you!"
It's simple, but it hits the key points and leaves room for personalization. I've found it especially useful for those first responses when you're just opening the conversation.
After implementing this across my properties, I've seen my response times drop significantly, even during peak inquiry periods. It's a small change, but it's had a real impact on my booking rates.
What strategies do you use to keep up with guest communications, especially when things get busy? Always curious to hear how other successful hosts are optimizing their processes.
Let's chat in the comments!
