Each one usually has a fixable cause. Finding it comes before changing prices or photos.

The problem
Rates that are set once and left alone, discounts that start too early, and gaps nobody fills.

Earned under the demand-based PriceLabs strategy I manage, with a $690 base and $525 minimum protecting the nightly rate instead of discounting early. One month’s result, not a before-and-after comparison.

How working together works
Fully remote, with owners and managers across five markets. Access is limited to what the work needs, and everything you share stays confidential.
You share your listing and goals. I send a review of your visibility, pricing and booking barriers, with three priority recommendations.
We agree what to work on, one-time or ongoing, through Upwork or a direct contract, depending on what suits you and the project.
You give access only to the systems the work needs, such as Airbnb, PriceLabs, Hostaway or Guesty. Your information stays confidential.
I make the agreed changes or guide your team through them, and explain the reasoning behind each one.
We look at what changed in your numbers and decide the next step together.

Insights
Airbnb’s new house rules policy limits what guests can be asked to do at checkout. Here’s what it says, and how to adjust pricing calmly.
Connecting PriceLabs is the easy part. Here’s how to check, setting by setting, whether it’s actually configured for your market.
Views mean guests are finding you. When they don’t book, something in the listing is creating doubt. Here’s where to look first.
Questions
The questions owners and managers ask most often.
All questions and answersI personally review your listing and send you a review of your listing’s visibility and presentation; an assessment of pricing and revenue opportunities; an evaluation of what may be stopping guests from booking; and three priority recommendations based on the findings.
You’ll receive it within three business days of receiving all the information I need. You can request your audit here.
Vacation rental owners and property managers, from people with one or two listings to managers running larger portfolios. I’ve supported 8+ properties directly and provided pricing and SEO support for a property manager with 100+ properties. I also help new hosts preparing their first launch.
I work remotely with clients across the US, Canada, the UK, Europe and Australia.
Everything I do happens inside the platforms you already use, so location rarely matters. We agree how and when to communicate at the start, by email, WhatsApp, Upwork messages or video calls, and plan calls at times that work for both of us.
It depends on the scope: how many listings, which services, and whether it’s a one-time project or ongoing support. Rather than a fixed price list, I quote after understanding your situation, usually after the free audit, so you only pay for what your rental actually needs.
Only what the agreed work requires. Depending on the scope, that might be Airbnb, PriceLabs, Hostaway, Guesty or another platform. Where a platform supports it, a team-member or co-host login with the right permissions is better than sharing your own password, and you can remove access when the work ends.
