It's one thing to let your friends who happen to have an instagram following stay for free; it is another story when fake influencers contact you for a free stay. Most legit influencers have enough money to pay for their stay. The broke ones who approach you for a free stay won't bring you any paying customers. The traditional response to those inquiries is, you pay for stay and then I will give you a commission on any booking you bring me which will make those "influencers" swiftly disappear
QUESTION...Have you done a video on whether financially it was wise to do the hot tub ? Im considering one, but we are in a desert region where water is at a premium and i am not sure of what sort of upkeep there is with them. We do not have a cleaning company in this region to do maintenance and although i get that it attracts people, i feel bad if we had to change the water after each use and the waste that goes with owning one
Thanks for another great video. I’m wondering why on phone with cleaners every time between bookings? Are they giving you a rundown of everything they found and what needs to be updated or replaced?
I am glad that you distinguished between followers and actual engagement/views. I know on TH-cam that there are people who have hundreds of thousands of followers, if not more but most of the followers were from years ago and they are a channel on the wane.
I have a Airbnb I would suggest shopping at ross for sheets and pillow cases sometimes they have some nice Nautica and lacoste and for towels I go to Walmart
Qs - Is there anything Finn loves more than to lay in a sunbeam? Was there something you worried about pre-launching your STR that turned out not to be a problem? What's something that you didn't anticipate that actually is something you deal with on the regular? Thanks so much for the surprise videos! I have been wondering about influencers. Do you recommend reaching out to them or wait till they reach out to you?

Amen on change over days. Our check out is 10 am and check in is 1:30 pm so our Saturday's are always a bit interrupted/slightly stressful.
Happy for you guys. 🙏🏽😊
Hi! Question for the Q & A: can you share your experiences with the different sheet and towel brands you have tried? Thanks!
agreed!!!
I have a Airbnb I would suggest shopping at ross for sheets and pillow cases sometimes they have some nice Nautica and lacoste and for towels I go to Walmart
Can you show some examples of the ads you run on instagram?
In regards to the influencer topic.. would you guys do a one for one trade? Strictly a free stay in exchange for content?
Love you guys❤.

Question: Are you planning to buy another Airbnb? What kind of property would it be? Have you ever thought about investing in a tiny house?
❤
Have you ever thought of moving closer to Joshua Tree since you are self employed?
So why allow them stay the weekend? Just let them come do content. Do a day trip.
It depends on the influencer. Some will definitely work with you like that!
You just talk....
