Marketing your short-term rental, Airbnb, and Vrbo takes more than leaving it to the platform. Building your business means you need to take a boots-on-the-ground approach to advertise to new venues.
In this episode, I share different ways I have found to get the word out about our vacation home rental in the area. Branching out to get direct bookings is a great way to build the longevity of your short-term rental.

This week I share my own experience renting an Airbnb to see fall colors in North Carolina. I call it our Camp Shanty Experience! It was a good reminder of our guests' perspective and what can happen when you are not hands-on in your short-term rental. We survived the trip with wonderful memories and lots of laughs from the cabin we rented. I'll share our "hair" experience, and the all-night wind tunnel complete with sound effects.
