Luke Thompson, Miami, Florida, USA
Background: Luke owns a luxurious beachfront property in Miami that offers breathtaking ocean views and top-tier amenities. Despite his property’s prime location, Luke faced recurring challenges maintaining steady bookings during the off-season. The sharp decline in occupancy affected his cash flow, making it difficult to cover maintenance costs and continue offering the high-quality guest experience his property was known for.
Challenge: Luke’s beachfront property thrived during Miami's peak tourist seasons but struggled to maintain occupancy during the off-season. Despite slashing prices and offering discounts, Luke found it difficult to attract guests. His conventional marketing efforts fell flat, leaving him increasingly anxious about his property’s sustainability.
Luke’s Perspective: "My property is my pride and joy, but every year the off-season hit me hard. I tried everything—price cuts, promotions, you name it—but nothing stuck. The villa sat empty, and I worried constantly about covering costs and losing out on revenue. I needed a better solution, something that would bring guests even when the beach wasn't their main draw."
Solution: AirBirds designed a customized strategy to keep Luke’s villa booked year-round by focusing on diversifying his guest base and enhancing his property’s appeal during slower seasons:

They had a clear strategy and were committed to seeing it through, which gave me the confidence I had been lacking.
Results:Luke’s property saw remarkable success after implementing AirBirds’ strategy, particularly during the off-season:
