We have tried to make the process of listing a workspace with HotPatch<\/a> as simple as possible, but here are a few tips to help you on your way to creating an appealing and successful Patch listing.<\/p>\n

1. Name your Patch<\/h3>\n

Grab all the attention your Patch deserves. Just what is it about your workspace that Users will love so much? Perhaps it\u2019s in a busy and popular part of town? Maybe it is impressively decorated? Or it could be a large and flexible space that caters for a range of activities? Whatever it is, be sure to mention it.<\/p>\n

\"Name

Examples that we like are:<\/p>\n

\u00b7 Stylish and professional salon in the heart of Newcastle<\/p>\n

\u00b7 Hidden gem yoga studio in East London.<\/p>\n

2. Describe your Patch<\/h3>\n

This is your chance to tell Users all the things about your Patch that they might not be able to find in your amenities list or photographs. A great description can help to build an impressive picture in the mind of a User and lead to more bookings.<\/p>\n

\"Describe
<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Be honest and accurate and include any details that might be helpful to a User e.g. the Patch is at the top of a long staircase, the art studio is shared with two other artists, or the Patch is a two-minute walk from Old Street Station. Such details set Users\u2019 expectations and ensures positive reviews.<\/p>\n

Examples that we like are:<\/p>\n

\u00b7 A newly renovated fitness studio located on a busy high street that is easily accessible and includes all the space and equipment you need for your clients.<\/p>\n

\u00b7 An elegantly designed beauty salon and creative hub for beauty enthusiasts and industry freelancers. This Patch is on the second floor of a gorgeous Georgian townhouse that overlooks the Cathedral Gardens in Liverpool city centre.<\/p>\n

3. Setting your availability<\/h3>\n
\"Setting
\nWhether you are renting your workspace out on an hourly or daily basis, it is important that you block out the times and dates in your calendar for when your Patch is unavailable. Remember to also update your calendar so potential Users can see your Patch\u2019s true availability.<\/span><\/figure>\n

4. Patch rules<\/h3>\n

We have created a list of general rules that we think all Patch Hosts will hope Users adhere to. If there are any other rules that are specific to your workspace, then please include them, as this helps to set expectations and boundaries for Users.<\/p>\n

5. How much does it cost?<\/h3>\n

The cost of your Patch is a major consideration for any potential User, and so it should also be a major consideration for you as the Host.<\/p>\n

\"How
<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Think about all that your workspace offers, including amenities and location, and then think of a price that offers good value for money.<\/p>\n

Some questions that you might want to think about are:<\/p>\n

\u00b7 How much would I pay for my own Patch?<\/p>\n

\u00b7 What is the cost of other similar Patches?<\/p>\n

\u00b7 Would lower costs help to establish my workspace?<\/p>\n

6. Take great snaps<\/h3>\n

High-quality photographs can make all the difference when it comes to Users booking your Patch. Alongside the name of your Patch, your main photo will be the first impression that a User has of your workspace, so make it a good \u2018un.<\/p>\n
