Boost Your Bookings with NextPax’s Airbnb Promotion Tools

Are you looking to maximize your Airbnb bookings and increase your occupancy rates? Challenges such as low occupancy, securing bookings ahead of time, and increasing revenue are common for many hosts. NextPax has partnered with Airbnb to offer a variety of powerful promotion tools designed to attract guests at different stages of their booking journey.

While we offer many tools to enhance your hosting experience, today we are focusing on three impactful promotions: Early Bird Discounts, New Listing Promotions, and Last-Minute Discounts. These tools ensure your listings are always in demand. Let’s explore how each promotion works and the benefits they bring to both hosts and guests.

Early Bird Discounts

What are Early Bird Discounts? Early Bird Discounts are a fantastic way to encourage guests to book your listing well in advance. By offering a discount to those who plan ahead, you create a sense of urgency and entice potential guests to secure their stay early.

Benefits:

• For Hosts: This promotion increases the likelihood of filling your calendar by attracting guests early. It also helps in managing occupancy rates more effectively.
• For Guests: Guests benefit from attractive price points, making it more appealing to book your listing ahead of time.

Suitable Listings:

• Listings with availability at least 1 month ahead
• Properties that can accommodate families and larger groups
• Listings that are struggling to get booked

Tips: Prepare your pricing strategy in advance for the upcoming season. Set up Early Bird Discounts for high, shoulder, or off-season bookings to attract more guests.

New Listing Promotion

What is the New Listing Promotion? Our New Listing Promotion offers a 20% discount on your next three bookings, perfect for hosts with new listings. To be eligible, a listing must have fewer than three bookings and smart pricing must be disabled.

Benefits:

• For Hosts: This promotion helps new listings stand out, especially during shoulder seasons. There’s no commitment, and you can opt-out anytime if it doesn’t suit your needs.
• For Guests: Guests get a great deal on new listings, which encourages them to try out new properties.

How it Works:

• Once applied, the next three bookings receive a 20% discount.
• Helps attract new guests and get the three reviews needed for a star rating.

Highlighting Your Discount:

• Displayed as a new line item on the price breakdown
• Featured in emails sent to guests
• Highlighted on your listing page
• Strikethrough price in search results and on the listing page

Last-Minute Discounts

What are Last-Minute Discounts? Last-Minute Discounts are designed to fill your remaining available dates. By offering a discount on last-minute bookings, you can optimize your revenue and avoid vacant nights.

Benefits:

• For Hosts: Profit from last-minute reservations and drive incremental nights.
• For Guests: Guests looking for last-minute deals can benefit from lower prices.

Suitable Listings:

• Listings with availability dates within 0-7 days
• Properties with calendar gaps
• Listings that are struggling to get booked

Tips: Implement Last-Minute Discounts during unpopular check-in days to fill calendar gaps and optimize your revenue.
