Hi Folks
Even though I'm a Super Host with five-star ratings, I did very little business in August so I decided to drop my nightly price by 40% to see what traction I would get.
Two things stand out
- I'm getting enquiries for long stays with questions of a nebulous nature e.g. "is your street quiet and safe?" or "is your Wi-Fi reliable"
I regard these sort of questions as "get out of jail free cards" (remember the game monopoly) but you said...
2.I've become a Tourist attraction, they want to visit before they book, presumably because they can't believe that value their getting!
What have I concluded from my price drop,
- Guest become more demanding.
- Guest have become suspicious about the quality of the offering.
So inconclusion, I'm putting my prices back up, less hassle all round.
Regards
