How to Get Your First Bookings When You Have Zero Reviews
Description
New vacation rentals face a trust problem, guests won’t book without reviews, but you can’t get reviews without bookings.
This episode breaks down the exact pricing formula successful hosts use to overcome the zero-review barrier, including how much to discount, how long to maintain promotional rates, and when to raise prices as your credibility builds.
Key Takeaways:
✅ Why 20% below market rate is the optimal discount for new listings (and why going deeper can backfire)
✅ The 8-10 review milestone that signals when to start raising your rates gradually
✅ How to screen for scammers who target discounted properties during your launch phase
✅ Multi-channel distribution tactics that get your unreviewed property in front of more potential guests
