So you want to be the best, huh? I'm pretty sure you do. Well, I'm going to show

one some secret ways that almost no one knows on how to do it in some secret
things that you can do that sets you above everyone else. Number 2, I'm going to
tell you exactly what Airbnb is looking for so you can give them exactly what
they want so that you show up in the top of all of the search results. And then
3, I'm going to show you how you can beat your competition every single time.
So, what is Airbnb? As many of you may know, Airbnb is the number one home
sharing platform in the world right now. It's currently boasting over 3
million nights booked every single day. And the demand is growing like crazy
for these properties. And it's not just Airbnb. It's also VRBO, Home
Away, Expedia and so many others. The important part about the Airbnb and
what you need to know when we're talking about putting your properties and making
money this way is what the host does. Being a host on Airbnb is very
profitable if you do it correctly. But it is definitely a mix between property
management and hospitality. Guests come to those properties expecting not quite
a hotel. Because obviously if they wanted a hotel they would have went to a hotel.
But many of your guests are expecting a very similar experience. Meaning, they
don't want the place to be dirty. Meaning, they do want white clean towels and
sheets. And meaning they do want to have everything that they need. They don't
want to have to bring soap and they don't want to have to bring shampoo. So,
just giving you a couple of things of what you can do as a host to make sure
that you're setting yourself apart. Let's kind of get into it a little bit more.
Your guests are going to be expecting a very similar experience to a hotel.
Whether you believe it or not, they really do. Yes, they understand that they
are booking someone's home or they are booking a room in someone's home or
they're booking your pool house or your guest house or your basement. Totally
okay. But at the same time still need that hospitality. When they
shower, they still want clean white towels. When
they go to cook, they want clean white dishes and forks and knives that match.
These are very important. So, this is what guests are expecting. And these are
some of the things that you are going to deliver. So, what you really need to do is
think about for one second "What does a hotel have that people need?" A place to
sleep, it's clean and it's comfortable. And what other things does it have? Clean
sheets, clean towels, service; privacy, maybe. Things like that. So, the way that
Airbnb rates is host is that the guest that stays at your property, they will
leave you a review, okay? They will get to give you stars and you can get 1 to
5 stars based on their experience. In order to be the best host, you need to
give 5 star ratings. Simple as that. You need to get 5 star ratings from
your guests. And the way that you will do it is by meeting and exceeding their
expectations. And this is pretty easy to do. I just told you like the basic things
that they're looking for. Clean, safe, comfortable. So, what are some of the
things that they give you at a hotel that people just love? Maybe coffee, maybe
water, maybe a little bit of snacks. Things like that. It doesn't take very
much money to give someone a 5-star experience. You just got to kind of look
at what do hotels do and mimic some of those same things. So, in order to be a
5-star host and get 5-star ratings, you need to do 2 things really well.
You need to (1) provide great service by making sure that your property is fully
stocked with the things that people needs and that you're meeting their
expectations with clean safe and comfortable. And again, clean sheets, clean
towels, clean property. Safe. It was easy for them to get in there's not anything
going on. You're not they're creeping in on them. And comfortable. A nice
comfortable mattress and things that they need. And then last but not least,
they're going to need communication. So, you'll message them. And I'll give you
some great tips and tools on how to do that. But you will message them how to
get into the property, how to reach you if they needed anything.
You'll leave a nice welcome book that breaks down how to use everything and
how to reach you if they needed anything. So, I really enjoy helping people start
