We added high quality video virtual tours to all of our properties because it was a VRBO option and the conversion rate was STAGGERING. After that I included a photo with a QR code linked to the tour video in my Airbnb listing…guests LOVE it 🙌🏼 I take it one step further and use a video hosting platform for the QR code that allows me to put a call to action button that takes them directly to my booking website where I make significantly more per booking than on Airbnb or VRBO. After 100’s of requests, I have FINALLY put this into its own training where I walk you through step by step of EXACTLY how we do my video virtual tours, shot list for the videographer, AND how we do the hosted “book now” landing page! 🔥comment VIDEO and I’ll send you the details of how to get the training 🔥 airbnb superhost str vrbohost host realestate realestateinvestor creativerealestate airbnb investor passiveincome digitalmarketing coach mentor str shorttermrental shorttermrentals

Social media is a fantastic FREE way to increase your bookings and raise awareness for your business.

1️⃣ It’s better to consistently post and get something posted than worrying about creating the perfect post.

2️⃣ Give people a CLEAR path to purchase / book your property. Tell them *exactly* what they need to do in each post and in your bio.

3️⃣ Videos perform better than pictures and short reels are a great way to grow. People *LOVE* before and after videos and full transformations if you have footage. Tell the story about your property and evoke emotion!

4️⃣ Spread the love and tag local businesses. Share their stories and local events. Karma pays off here and establishes you in the community.

We help you create or optimize your profitable STR business centered around your goals through personalized coaching and mentorship.

The hard truth is if you aren’t successful in a “saturated market” it’s because someone else is.

If you are struggling to get bookings, before you blame it on market saturation I urge you to take an honest audit of where your listing stacks up against your competition.

If it were me, I would start with:

1. Amenities. Does every top performing property in your market have a hot tub and you don’t? Figure out the commonalities in the top performing properties and adjust where you can.

2. Cleaning fees. SECRET SHOP and see what your competition is charging. If you are charging $250 for a 3 bedroom and your competition is only charging $100 that absolutely factors into a guest decision to book.

3. Professional Photography and photo order to make sure the best parts of the property are showcased. Don’t come to me and blame market saturation if you are using iPhone photos, just don’t. 😆

4. If your competition has a 2 night minimum and you are sitting at 3 or 4 night min that could be a factor in your occupancy.

🌟🌟If you are ready to go from Hobby Host to STR PROFIT MACHINE join us live for my Elevate Your STR Workshop March 3-6th!

(Yes there will be replays if you can’t make it live)

I’ll be covering my secrets to:

💫 Make your Listing STAND OUT

In the game of search rankings and algorithm visibility every single box you can check for amenities you offer to your guests helps you rank higher and appear in more searches!

It shows you are providing value to your guests and guests can filter by certain amenities.

A record player is relatively inexpensive and guests comment ALL THE TIME that they really enjoyed using it in our homes.

BONUS if you get one that’s Bluetooth enabled so they can also use it as a speaker to play their own music too 🙌🏼

Comment RECORD and I’ll send you the exact one I use with a few of guest favorite vinyls!

1️⃣ Post your next few available openings on your social media stories with a link to book on your direct booking site. (Seems simple, but have you done it?)

2️⃣ Check in on your pricing strategy. Are you using dynamic pricing? If so, check in to make sure you are pacing with the market and adjust if necessary.

3️⃣ Update your photo descriptions. The airbnb algorithm loves to see active listings and changing photo descriptions is a great way to to show them you are active! Our team changes at least one word on one caption once a week. We call it the 1:1:1 strategy and it works!

4️⃣ Respond to ALL of the reviews your guests leave you. Again, Airbnb loves to see hosts being active on the platform and guests love to see responsive hosts! Seeing you engage with past guests helps them know you are committed to their future experience.

5️⃣ Join us live for my Elevate Your STR Workshop March 3-6th and learn how to maximize your listing, and get your social media plus influencer marketing converting to bookings!

This training is PACKED with stuff no one else in this industry dares to share 😘

Make It Better Monday Listing Audit!

Thank you @nymraemae for being in the hot seat so we can all learn! STUNNING listing and amazing job with photos🙌🏼

A few key takeaways:

📝Consider changing your title to include a callout of the design. 3 distances is a bit cluttered and not very engaging.

📸 Consider changing your second photo to the photo of the bedroom, the exterior is nice but not one of your best 5 photos. I like to always like to see living space, bedroom, kitchen in top five but then 2 more of the best selling points.

🌟 Make the listing description 2-3 sentences and then add your top three closest attraction distances under.

✅ Check in with your dynamic pricing strategy to increase occupancy.

❤️ Clean up “distances” section because right now it’s overwhelming. Choose 5-6

🙌🏼 Keep responding to every review
