In this episode, Neil gives listeners a step-by-step guide to starting their own vacation rental biz.
He starts by highlighting the opportunity: people prefer vacation rentals to hotels now, and there is a huge demand for hotel-level cleaning services and a massive lack of companies to fulfill that need.
Steps which Neel outlines include:
- Your website: it doesn't need to be perfect...it just needs to get up ASAP
- Your booking system: will be different for residential cleaning and vacation rental (Neel gives recommendations for both)
- Your labor: how to get and retain them (insider tip: their ability to clean is NOT their most important quality)
- That corner tuck: what Airbnb guests look for when checking in and what you need to take care of
Neel also discusses other ways you can monetize your business...after you get started!
