Used book – Gîtes and B&Bs: The keys to successful creation, Isabelle Barèges

You are planning to create gîtes or bed and breakfasts, hoping to combine personal fulfillment and profitability. Wherever you plan to open this accommodation, remember to study its feasibility in light of your expectations: Depending on your objectives, what means should you implement? What regulatory, legal, and fiscal environment governs this activity and what is the impact of the decree of August 3, 2007? How can you test certain commercial niches, such as eco-tourism, business tourism, wellness stays, table d'hôtes...? Through what channels can you market and promote your offer? In the age of e-tourism, how can you adapt to the demand of these new "consumers," who are keen on nature and conviviality, but also originality? To succeed in your professional venture, experienced rental owners share their secrets here, and tourism professionals share their experience through tools - tests, self-assessment methods, profitability studies... - to measure the viability of your project in real time.
