Make sure your listing is well optimized you can also do a little tweaking to your listing daily to get on the algorithm, make sure your photos are eye catching and well arranged, you can send out your link to friends and families and ask them to add it to their wishlist.In terms of pricing you always want to start low to get some bookings and ratings then slowly increase your price.I wish you the best in your business.

Best Wishes!

I work in the area and am happy to help if you wish.
