Airbnb communication strategy simplified
Airbnb host communication is vital to maintaining a profitable short-term rental. Hosts that respond quickly are more likely to get bookings and get positive reviews. It’s also important to follow Airbnb communication rules to avoid being penalized by the platform.
Communication makes guests feel cared for. This includes automated messages for your airbnb including a check-in message, check-out message, and thank you message. Scheduled Airbnb messages help guests stay on time and result in better reviews.
While some Airbnb communication is automated, there are situations which require human support. The best approach is a hybrid with auto-messages at certain points, auto reply when a message is received, and a human to help resolve any issues.
Airbnb communication services don’t cost extra for Awning property management clients. DIY Owners need to subscribe to an automation service and devote the extra time to guest communication. Responding to messages at 2AM is not a pleasant experience.
Awning handles all the communication for your Airbnb. This includes both automated messages and 24/7 support for guests that respond in 15 minutes or less. Awning property management is an all inclusive airbnb communication solution.
