New Unlimited Trial 🙌 and Onboarding User Journey 🤙

Simply by listing your property on Hostshare, you can now stay at other properties for just the cleaning fee. No membership required until your next stay. We believe so strongly in the value of our platform that we've removed the time limit on trials. It's our way of letting you experience the full benefits before deciding to subscribe. Below, you'll find a detailed list of all the updates in this release:

Enhanced Onboarding and Listing Activation:

Onboarding Travel Page:
Start your Hostshare experience by exploring a preview of featured places and pin locations on the map. This introduction is designed to inspire you to add your listing and join our vibrant community.

Simplified Listing Submission:
We've refined the process to submit your listing for review. We removed almost 8 steps in our onboarding process from the signup to submitting the listing for review. Immediately after submission, you'll be guided through the necessary steps to ensure your listing meets Hostshare’s standards, helping you go live smoothly and quickly.

Immediate Engagement:
With our new onboarding flow, as soon as your listing is approved - it goes live. This unlocks your ability to fully use the platform, including booking your free trial stay of up to two nights. It's our way of saying thank you and welcoming you aboard.

Key Updates and User Benefits:

Unlimited Trial with Membership Activation Prompt:
Enjoy the flexibility of an unlimited trial period. You’ll be prompted to activate your full membership when you're ready to make bookings beyond the trial, ensuring you have all the time you need to experience Hostshare without commitment.

Enhanced Mobile Usability:
We’ve made several updates to improve how Hostshare works on mobile devices. From easier navigation in the menu to streamlined booking processes, every change is made with your convenience in mind.
Detailed Submission and Review Guidance:
The end of the "go live" flow has been updated to better explain the submission for review process. New content guides users through what to expect during the review stages and what happens once their listing is approved.
Key Details Page Enhancements:
This page now includes the Hostshare pledge, ensuring all users commit to our community standards as part of the listing process.
Updated Notification Language:
Email notifications sent to users have been revised to reflect the new listing status updates, including pending, in-review, approved, and live statuses.

Admin Tools for Better Support:

Flexible Admin Controls:
New admin features such as the ability to approve and go live simultaneously offer us the flexibility to support your listings more effectively. Additional tools to unlist or adjust free nights help us manage the platform to better suit your needs.
Enhanced Record-Keeping:
With added note capabilities, our support team can keep detailed records of interactions and bookings, ensuring that we can provide you with personalized and timely assistance.

Your Feedback is Vital:

Your input is crucial as we continue to refine and enhance the Hostshare experience. Please let us know how these changes work for you and if there are any other improvements you’d like to see. Your feedback helps us build a better Hostshare for everyone.

Thank you for being a part of our community. We look forward to seeing your listings go live and celebrating your success as a Hostshare host!
