Little startup costs required

The cost to start a airbnb hosting business costs significantly less money than most businesses, ranging anywhere from 62 to 35,615.

Rewarding work

Starting a airbnb hosting business can be really rewarding work. After all, you are solving an immediate issue for your customer and you're working on something you truly care about.

No overhead costs

To get your airbnb hosting business started, there are no costs associated with overhead, storage, packaging, etc. This will save you a lot of time and money!

High customer retention rates

Once a customer invests in your product, they've invested their time and energy to utilize your product/service which is highly valuable to them. Typically, your product or service becomes indispensable to your customer.

High margins

The gross margins for your airbnb hosting business are typically around 80%, which is considerably high and allows you to grow your business and manage costs easily.

Crowded Space

Competition is high when it comes to your airbnb hosting business, so it's important that you spend a good amount of time analyzing the market and understanding where the demand lies.

Work can be inconsistent

As a airbnb hosting business, the amount of work assigned to you and schedule tends to be more inconsistent, which may make your income less stable. It's important to set boundaries and budget accordingly based on the amount of work you plan to have.

Isolation

Often times, as a airbnb hosting business, you typically work alone and do not have much face-to-face interaction with other team members.

No safety net

Typically, as a airbnb hosting business, you do not receive a consistent pay-check and instead earn money based on your transactions each month. During the slow periods, you typically take away less since the job is based on commission. It's important to budget accordingly for the slow times.

Niche Market

A niche business is not necessarily a bad thing, in fact, it can be the key to your success. However, it can be more challenging and time consuming to find the perfect niche market and target audience.
