7 Tips to Attract More Rentals for Your Listing at Neighbors Trailer

We have been operating Neighbors Trailer for a while and have noticed what works and what doesn’t. Many of the tips we have to share might seem obvious, but a few of them might surprise you. Let’s list down the tips that can get you more attention for your listings.

1. Make Sure that the Price is Right

We always advise doing a little bit of research before setting the price for your listing at Neighbors Trailer. Take a look at the listings on our platform for the kind of trailer you plan to list. What are the prices other trailer owners have set? What is the condition of other trailers?

Compare your listing with the rental trailers closest to yours. We recommend setting a price that makes your listing more competitive than others while keeping it fair. You do not want to charge too much for your rental trailer. Set a fair price and people will be likelier to rent from you.

2. Did You Complete the Listing Description?

The listing description section on Neighbors Trailer makes everyone’s life a little easier. It gives you a chance to tell potential renters what they should know. It gives them a better idea of what to expect when renting your trailer. If you have incomplete information or if your description barely has anything written there, it will be difficult to engage people.

Peer-to-peer marketplaces require establishing trust. To make your listing look trustworthy, you should be generous with the description. When people know what you are offering, they might feel more inclined to inquire about your listing.

3. Try Adding Multiple Photos to Your Listing

One or two low-resolution pictures do not look good on any listing. Adding several high-quality photos is one of the best things you can do to make your listing more attractive. Make sure you take images that show the condition of your trailer and highlight all the good things about it. Additionally, you should also ensure you don’t add pictures of multiple trailers for one listing. It can confuse potential renters and decrease your chances of working with them.

4. Give the Listing Time to Rank

Are you frustrated that not enough people are inquiring about your listing? How long has it been since you made the listing? Sometimes, just being patient might be the key. Once you create a listing on Neighbors Trailer, we suggest giving it some time to rank. Inquiries will start coming in if you have made a good listing. You just need to give it a little time.

5. Use the Power of Social Media

What good is your social media presence if you are not using it to promote your listing? The best way to get more engagement is spreading awareness about your listing. Share your listing on your Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn with friends and family. Ask them to share it as well. Chances are, someone in your friend list might know someone looking for a rental trailer.

6. Consider if Your Listing is Good Enough to be Featured

Do you think you have a great listing? Is it good enough to be featured? At Neighbors Trailer, we help trailer owners with excellent listings get a little boost each week. You can send us an email to be considered in our weekly best listing for our blog. We will review your request. If we feel that your rental trailer listing should get more traction, you can count on us to promote it on our blog.

7. Show That You are a Neighbors Trailer Member

How about sharing a link to your listing on your website? You can also add our logo to the website to show you are a Neighbors Trailer member to get your website visitors to engage with your listing.
