Hey everyone,
As some parts of the world lessen the lockdown measures, I've been hearing from hosts that have edited their listing to be more “working from home” friendly. Apart from the Enhanced Cleaning protocol, there are a few things mentioned that can make a staycation more appealing from a guest's perspective. Here’s some I have seen reference here on the CC:
- Strong internet connection is a must. Also, some hosts recommend you provide an ethernet cable too, in order to enhance the reliability of your internet connection.
- If possible, access to an outside area where they can unwind or maybe even have a more interesting view for those long Zoom conferences
- Edit your listing title and description - if you want to encourage guests from your country or district, changing your listing description to something that specifically showcases those stay at home qualities.
- Shuffle or change your hero image - by hero image we mean the first pick of the bunch! If you do have an area that could look like a great study or office area, move it to the front of the docket.
This is by no means an exhaustive list and there are bound to be tons of other small changes hosts can apply to lure those more local professional guests that just fancy a change of scenery while they work from home.
Have you hosted a non-essential worker recently? What did you do to appeal to those laptop wielding guests?
Thanks,
Liv
