Listing lifecycle
- Draft listing with complete essentials.
- Submit for approval.
- Activate and monitor enquiries.
- Refresh content regularly (media + description quality).
Quality controls before publish
- Minimum photo count and clear hero image.
- Description depth: amenities, fees, restrictions, nearby context.
- Accurate pricing and period fields.
- Precise location and availability signals.
Demand capture workflow
- Use market hubs and discovery rails to identify demand locations.
- Keep one featured candidate listing per key location cluster.
- Track message response speed and viewing follow-through.
Host featured strip workflow
- Open `/host?view=all` to review the Featured strip above the media mosaic.
- The strip prioritizes active featured listings and caps to six cards for quick triage.
- Use the strip for top-of-day checks, then continue in the full mosaic for bulk actions.
- Use horizontal swipe/trackpad scroll in the strip to peek adjacent spotlight cards before deep review.
Canonical listing management routes
- Use `/host/listings` as the primary management surface for all inventory.
- Use `/host/properties/[id]/availability` for availability controls.
- Use `/host/shortlets/[id]/settings` for shortlet-specific setup.
- In feed cards, use the primary `Manage` button for editing and the `...` menu for secondary actions.
Demo vs real inventory
- Demo listings are for sandbox/training only.
- Do not use demos to represent live availability.
- Production conversion should come from approved, active, real listings.
