One thing you should know before opening an Airbnb: it is NOT passive income 😂
Just like any business, there’s admin involved. Guest messages, calendars, pricing, check-ins, availability, different booking platforms… and when you only have one property, doing all of that manually is totally manageable.
But once you start managing multiple properties, those little 5-minute tasks add up VERY quickly.
In order to keep growing, I had to put better systems in place.
I started using Lodgify about a month ago. My bookings feed into one calendar, I can automate guest messages, manage multiple properties from one place and work on my direct booking website without constantly jumping between different apps.
It definitely hasn’t made hosting completely passive 😂 but it has made the day-to-day much simpler.
This is a paid partnership with , but I actually chose and paid for Lodgify before they ever approached me about working together.
If you’d like to try it, you can use code CHANEL15 for 15% off all yearly and bi-yearly Lodgify plans, including a free 7-day trial and free onboarding. 💛
