Description

This week, I had the chance to sit down with someone who quite literally has their finger on the pulse of our industry. If you’ve ever wondered whether you're charging the right rates, when you should be adjusting pricing, or why bookings seem slow compared to your neighbour’s, this episode is for you. I’m talking to Jamie Lane from Airdna, and I genuinely think this could be one of our most practical and timely conversations to date.As someone running an accommodation business, you're constantly juggling revenue, guest satisfaction, and market conditions. But what if you could take the guesswork out of it? In this episode, we break down what the data is actually telling us—so you can make smarter decisions every single week. Jamie and I explore how market-wide trends affect your bookings, how to interpret occupancy and rate shifts, and what top-performing operators are doing differently.SHOW LINKS AirDNA - https://www.airdna.co STR Data Lab Podcast - https://www.airdna.co/podcast PriceLabs - https://www.pricelabs.co Beyond Pricing - https://www.beyondpricing.com#STRstrategy #AccommodationGrowth #DataDrivenDecisions📋 In this episode, we discuss:Chapters00:00 - Introduction to Jamie Lane and AirDNA 02:57 - Economist vs. Data Scientist: Key Differences Explained 04:17 - Economic Trends and Their Impact on Short-Term Rentals 06:47 - Changing Guest Behaviour: Families, Long Stays & More 11:34 - STR Supply Growth Trends in Australia and the US 14:21 - How ADR and Occupancy Trends Affect Your Business 16:31 - Weekly Actions Every Host Should Take 20:10 - Booking Lead Times, Reviews & Competitor Comparison 22:33 - Monthly & Quarterly Strategy for Market Analysis 27:17 - Most Hosts Leave Money on the Table—Here's Why 29:01 - Final Thoughts & How to Connect with Jamie Lane ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 🥊 Hotel - BNB - STR Owners! 🥊 Need more direct bookings or a brand new website?
