Summary

AI-generated

Sean Rakidzich explains how to use Airbnb's internal conversion metrics to identify if you are leaving money on the table. He highlights that a conversion rate over 5% is a strong indicator that your rates are too low, leading to overbooking too far in advance and missed revenue opportunities.

Key insights

  • The optimal listing-to-booking conversion rate for the Airbnb algorithm is typically between 2.5% and 5%.

Mistakes to avoid

  • Thinking a 100% occupancy rate several months out is a success, when it actually indicates your pricing is too low for the demand.

Tools & resources

  • Airbnbtool

    The primary OTA platform where these specific conversion metrics can be found in the insights tab.
