Successful business development in rural tourism homesteads is not possible without a good knowledge of its environment evaluation and research-based marketing decisions. The complex process of organizing services requires appropriate strategic steps and is impossible without sales promotion activities.

The main research methods: analysis of scientific literature sources; statistical data analysis; content analysis and other methods. The aim of research – to identify the sales situation of rural tourism accommodation services and to develop guidelines for sales promotion.
