Lesson: Network Etiquette – Being a Great Network Member

Module 14: Exclusive Client Property Sharing

In short

Being a great host network member means giving the same exposure you hope to receive, keeping your listing honest and up to date, replying quickly to guests and other hosts, and respecting each host's guests, policies and pricing. Because a referred guest arrives with another host's trust, your habits affect every member, so problems are best raised privately, factually and with good intent.

Questions people ask

Why does etiquette matter in a host network?

A referred guest judges both you and the host who sent them, so slow replies or an inaccurate listing damage several reputations at once.

Should hosts in a network agree on prices?

No. Each host should set their own prices independently; agreements on prices between competing businesses can raise competition-law issues.

How should I raise a problem with another host in my network?

Contact them directly and privately, describe the facts, assume good intent and agree a next step, rather than raising it publicly or with guests.
