Key insights
The three common host archetypes are Host Annie (relies on gut, happy guests but doesn't track data), Host Bob (overconfident, believes their property is too unique for comps, keeps rates high year-round), and Host Carla (data-driven, strategic, builds a business for freedom).
Mistakes to avoid
Believing that your property is too unique to have comparable properties (Host Bob archetype) leads to overconfidence, ignoring data, and potentially keeping your calendar empty due to unrealistic pricing.
