Tips For Creating A Guest First Vacation Rental Brand23 May 202300:27:09

In this episode, I discuss some ideas for creating a better guest experience for your guests by offering the comforts of home, amazing hospitality, excellent guest communications, and personalized services.

When you know your Perfect Guest Avatar and create the Perfect Guest Experience, your guests will treat your property better, give you amazing reviews (even if something goes wrong), share your property with their friends and book again!

Once you have your guest experience dialed in, you can create a brand around this experience - your offer, your USP (differentiation), your social media and other marketing messages all become centered around the guest first experience you've created.

The first step in creating a better guest experience is having a deep understanding of who your guests are. Use the Perfect Guest Avatar Workbook to figure this out.

Three Steps To Get Started With Email Marketing02 May 202300:14:54

Email marketing is one of the best ways to get more direct bookings for your vacation rentals. Email marketing not only to previous guests but also to prospective guests - your future guests. But the best way to do that is not by sending a generic "book your getaway" email. You need to be sending valuable content in the form of a regular newsletter, encouraging your subscribers to have conversations and reminding them to book.

The three steps to get started with email marketing:

  • Create A Lead Magnet (an offer on your website that you give them in exchange for their email address.)
  • Sign up for Mailchimp or Convertkit or another email marketing platform.
  • Set up automation in your email marketing platform that gives your subscribers the lead magnet you promised and welcomes them to learn more about you and your business and begins to build trust in you and your business.

The Professional Vacation Rental Business Roadmap26 Apr 202300:16:27

Values Matter: Build a Heart Centered Vacation Rental Brand25 Apr 202300:13:03

Your brand promise

The key to building a successful and memorable brand. It is the promise you make to your guests, future guests, employees, community members, yourself and anyone else who comes into contact with your brand. Your mission will clearly communicate your brand's purpose, your guest experience and how you serve your people.

Values are what you stand for.

Why should people trust you and what is important to you as a brand? Defining clear values for your brand has a few key benefits. For one, it helps give your brand structure and consistency. Secondly, and perhaps most importantly, it helps your brand connect with your target audience. People tend to naturally gravitate toward those who share similar values. The same is true for brands. And thirdly, having clear values helps you differentiate your brand from your competitors.

If you value safety, for example, then this will guide you as you buy amenities, create safety protocols, and market these safety features. Parents will appreciate this value and what you do to protect their family.

Brand Value Examples:

  • Honesty
  • Respect
  • Adventure
  • Imagination
  • Energy
  • Environment
  • Safety
  • Beauty
  • Influence
  • Excellence
  • Cleanliness
  • Kindness
  • Quality Time
  • Relationships
  • Hospitality
  • Diversity
  • Entertainment
  • Privacy
  • Sustainability
  • Fun
  • Affordability
  • Value
  • History
  • Culture
  • Creativity
  • Conservation
  • Animal welfare
  • Simplicity
  • Community
  • Faith
  • Family
  • Loyalty
  • Friendship
  • Friendliness
  • Caretaking
  • Responsibility
  • Quality
  • Peace
  • Relaxation
  • Learning
  • Nature
