How to Set Custom Airbnb seasonal pricing
[su_spacer size=”10″]
Many hosts leave money on the table by not setting seasonal custom Airbnb Pricing well in advance.

The script of the video other than the discussion of the tables.
[su_spacer size=”10″]
Today we look at how to establish seasonal pricing and how to set it on Airbnb.

You have read the previous articles (here) in the series? They build-up to this one.

Next week we will look at why and how to set discounts to maximise income.

Let’s consider Michael’s frustration…
[su_spacer size=”10″]
He said,
Twice now I have had an issue where a guest books for a popular date a full 12 months in advance[su_spacer size=”10″]– the dates, they are booking for, are ones which would usually attract a premium.[su_spacer size=”10″]For example, New Year’s Eve, which is a big event in Edinburgh.[su_spacer size=”10″]Is there any way to set the price long in advance? This has cost me hundreds already…
[su_spacer size=”10″]
Sad. Why be a statistic? Let’s fix it.
[su_spacer size=”10″]
First, we will look at a “picture” to conceptualise the idea. It’s a spreadsheet you can download and adapt for your needs.
[su_spacer size=”10″]
But it’s not really required. Your gut feels and a bit of insight will help.
[su_spacer size=”10″]
Secondly, we’ll visit Airbnb to show you how.
[su_spacer size=”10″]
The example I’ll be using is based on the previous video where I showed you how to calculate a competitive Airbnb Pricing. See it here.
[su_spacer size=”10″]
Today I’ll make a few assumptions on seasonality.
[su_spacer size=”10″]
Our average rate for the year is 750 bucks with a conservative occupancy at 35%.
[su_spacer size=”10″]
And our aim is to beat about 109000 bucks for the year.
[su_spacer size=”10″]
During slow times we set the Airbnb Pricing lower at 90% of the average.
[su_spacer size=”10″]
During summer a little higher at 127%
[su_spacer size=”10″]
During peak, about 20 days we set it really high at 250%.
[su_spacer size=”10″]
And you need to adjust long weekends slightly higher.
[su_spacer size=”10″]
The seasonal difference will differ in your case. And it does not matter a lot.
[su_spacer size=”10″]
Let’s say you get a booking quickly and you think it could have been more. Don’t worry.
[su_spacer size=”10″]
You are learning. And this is a marathon where trust-building is more important than a quick buck. You are getting feedback. Adapt.
[su_spacer size=”10″]
But how do I know the differences for the season?
[su_spacer size=”10″]
You can spy on your competitors to check their average rates for seasons. But don’t be surprised if they are clueless about setting different prices.
[su_spacer size=”10″]
Start off with small differences between seasonal rates. And learn.
[su_spacer size=”10″]
Tip. In future videos, I’ll be warning you about setting Airbnb length of stays correctly. But subscribers to this channel can get the tip before I do that video.

[su_spacer size=”10″]
Okay, before we look at the seasonal table let me introduce it. I have divided the year in 26 two week periods.
[su_spacer size=”10″]
I believe this is a reasonable period to set seasonal custom Airbnb Pricing.
[su_spacer size=”10″]
See the video for the table or link to the spreadsheet below.
[su_spacer size=”10″]
Slow summer is just a period before winter was demand slows down a bit.
[su_spacer size=”10″]

[su_spacer size=”10″]
Okay. Now to Airbnb to set our pricing.
[su_spacer size=”10″]
Open your listing. And let’s do it.
[su_spacer size=”10″]
BTW. Always set your listing to be closed by default. Always. This will cost you money if you don’t.
[su_spacer size=”10″]
See the Tips link for why I say this.
[su_spacer size=”10″]
Go to Airbnb. Show how to do it.

Brain Chesky Airbnb CEO and others said Post COVID travel will be different.
[su_spacer size=”10″]
Yes.
[su_spacer size=”10″]
More and more are realising they can work from home. Certain students don’t have to attend classes.
[su_spacer size=”10″]
More and more will work from home. Give them the opportunity to do it at your Remarkable Airbnb.
[su_spacer size=”10″]
Why not?
[su_spacer size=”10″]
Have fun
