Although Internet is an extremely valuable marketing tool, you can employ some additional real world methods in order to market your vacation homes more efficiently.

Brochures

Being useful, practical and cheap, full-color postcards with pictures of your property and contact information present a great way of finding local and international renters. They can be placed everywhere around the town as well as in the vocational rental home. Renters will send them to their relatives and friends, who in their turn may contact you when going on a trip. Another option is sending the postcards to your renters to thank them for staying with you.

Just like postcards brochures and flyers are an effective marketing tool, as they are inexpensive and can be easily produced with a home computer. Make sure that you include not only pictures of the front of the house but also quality shots of inner décor and equipment. Don’t forget to include full contact information and your website address.

Advertising your vocational rental home in print media can get pretty expensive but you can cut the description of your rental to the location of your home and a URL address of your site containing the detailed information. It is also a good idea to advertise in newspapers and magazines that highlight issues somehow related to your property. If you rental home is situated near a golf course you can put an advertisement in a golf magazine, or in a fishing publication if it is near a river or sea. Be a step ahead of your competitors and reach as many renters as possible.

Bonus Options

Another method of marketing vacation rental homes is running a competition with a weekend stay at your home as a prize. There are numerous fundraisers for all kinds of causes, and they would be thrilled to win it a prize they can give out. You benefit because your vacation rental home gets noticed by even those who failed to win.
