The Simple Steps That Added $40,000 to an Airbnb (In Just One Year)

James Carlson reveals how his clients transformed an existing Airbnb from $50K annually to $90K—an 80% revenue increase—by following five straightforward principles. He shares two strategies while teasing his $49 Stand Store report with all five.

🏠 The Proof Property 45 minutes south of Breckenridge averaged $50K/year. New owners bought in early 2025, implemented all five strategies, now tracking $90K annually—$40K more ($3,333/month). Most investors drop off after closing instead of pushing through.

📋 Two Strategies Revealed

1. Know Thy Laws Don't rely on AI—ChatGPT recommended Denver despite felony charges for STR violations. Call planning departments, read ordinances, work with knowledgeable agents.

2. Design Matters More Than You Think Stand out on Airbnb's first page (18 properties). Beige and bland gets lost. This client: painted walls forest green, rebranded as "Starry Pines," added large art, replaced all furniture (no cup-holder couches). Hire a designer for $2K-3K—best money you'll spend.

The Edge: Your competition quits after closing. Be the 2 out of 10 who push through the final month of work.
