The Bed and Breakfast Coach

Run a B&B that you and your guests love

Most B&B owners don’t have a bookings problem. They have a business model problem. I help independent B&B, guest house and small hotel owners attract the right guests, charge what their rooms are worth and rely less on the booking sites.

Does this sound familiar?

  • You’re up at 6am stripping beds, and still answering emails at 10pm.
  • Your guests love you and your reviews are glowing.
  • But the numbers still don’t add up, and another commission disappears to the booking sites.

It doesn’t have to be this way.

What actually fixes it

More visibility, more platforms and more marketing just make you busier. What changes things is the business underneath.

  1. 1

    Attract the right guests

    Stop trying to please everyone. Know who your ideal guests are and speak to them.

  2. 2

    Charge what it’s worth

    Price your rooms with confidence, so every booking pays its way.

  3. 3

    Build a system that works

    More direct bookings, less reliance on Airbnb and Booking dot com, and a Digital Assistant (DA) to take jobs off your plate.

Yvonne Halling, The Bed and Breakfast Coach

Hello, I’m Yvonne

For 17 years I ran my own B&B in a vineyard village in Champagne. For a long time it didn’t make what I needed, and I had no roadmap and no strategy. So I made a decision. I stopped trying to attract everyone, focused on the right guests, raised my prices and built a system that worked, without relying on the online travel agents. Since 2014 I’ve helped owners around the world do the same.
