Free Book Offer for Holiday Home Owners
Now summer is coming to an end, most Holiday home owners will find their rentals slowing down and coming to an end.
So what to do now? Now is time to take stock and think about next year, yes NOW is the time to start preparing for next year. It is never too early to start planning for next years bookings, as in the next few short months holiday makers will start to make plans for next year's holiday.
So what should you be doing?
There are three main things you should be doing now:
1) Assess your results for this year. Did you do as well as you expected? Did you come across any problems? Did you marketing reach your target market? Did you meet your financial targets as you wanted / needed?
2) Look at your marketing. Did you reach the market you wanted to effectively? Did you get the results you wanted from your current marketing plan? Should you change / extend your marketing to be more effective? Are there any new products / services to help with your marketing? Do you know and understand your target market and what they want? Do you need or want to change your target market?
3) Does your property need updating or changing to make it more sellable? Do your photos need updating? Are they good enough? Do you need to change some furniture or decoration to make it more appealing? Can you make some simple changes to bring in a higher level of client thereby increasing your rentals and profits?
These are the main things you should be thinking about, with a view to get it completed by December, ready for the end of year / new year bookings.

Now is the time!
With only a few weeks left in the year, this is a critical time for planning for next years rental season and having everything in place ready for the peak booking time in early January. These early weeks are critical for most home owners in terms of getting a good start on the year's bookings and for some can make or break a year's success!
So are you ready? Do you have a clear plan?
What are your targets? It is very important to have a clear idea of what you want to achieve and an plan of how to get there.
Who is your market? Are you happy with that market or do you want to make a change, maybe upwards or 'across'?
Do you have all your marketing ready, are you getting enough exposure where you want it?
Have you reviewed your performance of this year and identified how to improve for next year?
If you are struggling with any of these issues, or are new to the letting game, I can help. Maybe you do great during high season but bookings slump once September comes and the school holidays finish and you want to change that. What a difference that could make to your income, right!
In my role as a Letting Expert with Tots to Travel, I have helped several owners this year boost their profits by filling their empty 'out of peak' weeks by assessing their individual property and providing them with a highly detailed and bespoke strategy report full of advice that can be used across all of your marketing channels.
