Looking For A Personal Coach

[Alicia1281]

My boyfriend recently started his Airbnb, and would love to have one-on-one guidance as to how to keep his calendar full. Recently, his bookings took a dip. As a birthday gift, I wanted to know if Airbnb has personal coaches, and how much it costs. Thank you

Hi @Alicia1281 

Your boyfriend can access lots of free advice from other Hosts by reading other threads here and simply searching by topic. He can also ask for a free critique of his listing by going to to the  "Ask About Your Listing Section":

How to Ask For a Critique of Your Listing

He can also employ an Experienced Co-Host and add them to his listing. The cost varies depending upon what tasks the Co-Hosts perform. Some operate strictly remotely (like myself) and others are in the same location as the listing and do everything (cleaning, greeting guests, maintenance tasks, etc.). Generally, the cost varies from 10%-30% of each booking, or can be a flat rate per booking. Some Co-Hosts operate off platform and charge an hourly rate, or flat fee per month Here is an article on how Co-Hosting works:

Airbnb also has a few states where you can search for Experienced  SuperHosts that can act as a Co Host (Florida, California, Illinois, Colorado, Arizona).

You can also find Co-Hosts by checking a local Facebook Host Group, or checking with a local Realtor who might know some Co-Hosts in the area.

No matter how good the coaching of your boyfriend is operating in an oversaturated market he won't be able to keep his calendar full @Alicia1281

I found a coach, and yes, some top performers keep their calendars full. Sorry you did not have that experience. Thanks anyway Helen.

No need to be rude @Alicia1281 if you look at my profile you will see I've been a five star superhost for nine years 

not sure why you assume I haven't had the bookings I want . 

my point is many markets are oversaturated coupled with falling demand.
