Identifying your ideal guest is crucial for tailoring your marketing efforts and creating a memorable experience.
Here are five questions Airbnb hosts and holiday homeowners can ask themselves to help define who their ideal guest is:
1) Who benefits most from my property’s location and amenities?
Consider the unique aspects of your property’s location (beachfront, city centre, near hiking trails) and amenities (pet-friendly, family-orientated features, workspace for business travellers). Who would find these features most appealing?
2) What type of experience am I offering?
Are you providing a luxury escape, a budget-friendly stay, a romantic getaway or a family holiday spot? Understanding the experience you offer helps narrow down your ideal guest.
3) What feedback do I receive from my happiest guests?
Look at your reviews and identify common themes. Are families constantly praising your kid-friendly amenities, or do business travellers appreciate the fast WiFi and workspace? This feedback can highlight who enjoys your property the most.
4) What interests or hobbies does my property cater to?
Does your location or the services you provide cater to specific interests or hobbies, like skiing, surfing, cultural exploration or gastronomy? Identifying these can help you pinpoint guests who share these interests.
5) Who is my property NOT suited to?
Knowing who your property isn’t suitable for can be just as important. If your place isn’t child-friendly or lacks certain amenities for specific groups, acknowledging this can help you focus on the guests who will find your offering perfect for their needs.
By answering these questions, you can better understand your ideal guest profile and tailor your marketing messages and property offerings to attract the right visitors.
Take at least 30 minutes to answer these questions in detail until you have a clearer picture of who your ideal guest is. This will make your social media marketing efforts much easier, attract the right people and help you get more bookings!
