I thought this might happen, which is why you're also going to get exclusive access to a private "students only" Facebook community. You'll use it to ask questions and get feedback from me and your fellow attendees. This is a great way to connect with other hosts like you so you can share ideas and work together to get even better results.

This workshop is designed for hosts who are already operating on Airbnb, specifically between 1 and 3 listings. If you're not changing your prices based on season or using Airbnb pricing suggestions, then this workshop is for you! You'll finish the workshop with a pricing blueprint that is rooted in fact based analysis so that you can earn the highest possible nightly rates, while still attracting the best guests.

100%! You will be able to make more money from the Airbnb units that you arbitrage. In fact, by using this pricing strategy, you'll be in a better position to confidently sell your abilities to future landlords and grow your business even more.

When it comes to pricing on Airbnb, the suggestions are just too low. When you follow these suggestions you simply don't make enough and you often end up operating at (or near) break even. The real danger here is that Airbnb's price generator is suggesting prices that will create the highest number of reservations for Airbnb -- and that generally means pricing all listings low. It also relies heavily on historical prices, so if you've been getting lots of confirmed reservations at a low price, it's going to keep suggesting low prices for you. You can (and should) raise your prices, but the question is by how much? You definitely do not want to price yourself right out of the market.

Much like the suggested prices inside Airbnb (see point above) Smart Pricing often suggests prices that are way too low. When you start to increase your base price beyond a certain point inside of Smart Pricing, it stops varying your prices in a way that maximizes your nightly rate. What you're left with is the same nightly price for weeks on end. This is certainly not a money making strategy. It's important to bear in mind that Airbnb's primary goal is to get more reservations in general and the easiest way for them to do that is to lower prices. You need your own, individual pricing strategy that you can use over and over again to make more money from your Airbnb.

Pricing automation software can be quite useful when the base prices inside them are set accurately. Generally speaking each of these websites will offer you some kind of suggested base price. Unlike the base prices inside Airbnb, these are typically more reasonable. But the challenge is, how do you know if they're too high or too low? Without having your own pricing strategy based on data and analytics you won't be able to get the most from these pricing tools because you won't be able to accurately set your base price. Look at this workshop as generating your pricing foundation that you can then use and leverage inside a pricing automation software. (Note, pricing automation software is NOT required to put into use what you've learned in the workshop).

After our time together in the workshop you'll have a customized pricing blueprint that will guide every pricing decision you make over the next 6-9 months. This strategy may continue to work for longer, but I always recommend that you update the data that you used to create your blueprint every 6-9 months (which is what I do!). We go deep on this topic inside the workshop. And since you'll have access to the workshop recordings and materials for the life of the course you can come back to it again and again.

You're right...maybe I should increase the price? Just kidding! But in all seriousness, I believe in sharing what I know with my Airbnb host community (I mean why else would I create so many videos on YouTube?! Trust me it's not for the piddly ad revenue). But there are some hard costs involved with putting on the workshop, so I run it pretty close to break even which is why the ticket price is so low. That said, I can't promise that I won't raise the price in the future, so I recommend you take advantage of it while you can!

Don't get me wrong, I love getting views on my YouTube channel. But on the channel, I generally just talk about "what" to do and not "how" to do it. I suppose if you watch all my videos on pricing you could eventually piece most of it together but it would take a while and you still wouldn't have all the "how". Perhaps most important, you'd be missing out on the opportunity to get live feedback on your pricing blueprint and you won't get the detailed lessons or the fill-in-the-blanks price blueprint or any of the bonus guides (prevent parties, smartphone photography & amenities buying guides). Plus you definitely won't have the rigour of a live workshop to keep you focused and on track, so you can start increasing your nighty rate right away!
