The Hosting Journey

"I don't want my boyfriend to get shot when he is picking up the keys." Those were the words from my guests when she arrived at my Airbnb. Yes, in today's episode, What Are You Doing Now? I'm talking about issues related to guest's safety, race and anti-racism.

Hopefully, you're getting some reservations, but before you even look at that inquiry, ask yourself when was the last time you updated your photos? Your listing? Your house rules? Your email sequence?

Today I discuss the Five Things You Need to Update in Your Airbnb in 2020... Listen and take action.

What are your thoughts? How many are about the past? About what it was? What it wasn't? Or even worse, how many of those unlovely, worrisome thoughts are about the future? Today I'm going to ask the question "What Are You Thinking and Is It Helping You?"
