If you are looking for a faceless professional with slick marketing and formal emails, I am not it. If you are looking for a real person to share that journey and be your guide and cheer-leader from the end of a WhatsApp message, I am.
Take the following as examples; get in touch with what you’d like and we can create a package to suit you.
Phone Call
£135
Ideal if you’ve a few things to ask or talk through including anything from whether holiday letting is right for you, physically setting up creating a listing on Airbnb, branching out into direct bookings, working as a cohost and everything in between!
A 45-minute phone call to talk anything holiday letting;
Your follow-up questions answered via messages for a week after the call (I might reply immediately or I might take up to 8 hours).
(You can be upgraded to a coaching package if you decide that extra support would be useful).
Crack Social Media
£165
You’re ready to take your business to the next level and use Facebook a bit, but now you want to really maximise the opportunity? This is for you. Around a third of my holiday let revenue comes from Facebook. I am not a social media marketing expert, but I am an expert in what has worked for me.
Immediate access to Maximising bookings with Facebook (& Instagram), a course on how to achieve success with bookings through Facebook;
A 45-minute phone call when you need it (usually best after accessing the guide) for advice about getting set up, how and when to post, content, how the algorithms work, influencers, giveaway, pitfalls to avoid and your questions;
Your follow-up questions answered via messages for a week after the call (I might reply immediately or I might take up to 8 hours).
Listing Review
£215
Keen to increase profits by achieving longer, shorter, or higher value stays? Want to be even more appealing to your target audience? Let me review your Airbnb listing.
A full review of your Airbnb listing, with a focus on what you are looking to achieve;
Detailed written feedback (in pdf form, typically 5-6 pages of A4) with examples and advice for optimisation for each section: everything from photos, to title, to calendar and reviews.
Listing Creation
£450
Know your time is better invested elsewhere? Let me do the whole job and rewrite (or write first time) your listing for you. You can add me temporarily as a cohost so I can complete the whole job directly.
Working with you to understand the offer and what you want to achieve, I will complete a full upgrade or initial write: title; 500-character first section; ‘the space’ section; captions; photo order. I will add all of the above directly to the listing and complete one redraft following feedback from you on any inaccuracies. You just sort the calendar!
Let’s Start
£495 or £107
This is suited to both ‘newbies’ and experienced hosts looking to list independently who currently list with an agent.
For those new to hosting on Airbnb this can sometimes be offered for just £107. Airbnb offer a referral system so you pay the first £107 to secure your step by step guides and Airbnb cover the rest: get in touch to discuss whether this could work in your case.
Access to my collection of guides to the setting up process with detailed step by step advice and links based on my years of experience and that of the 100+ mentees I have worked with.
Step 1 – Starting a holiday let (regulations and admin, finances, lifestyle)
Step 2 – Setting up your place (furnishing, layout, consumables)
Step 3 - Creating your listing (selling the space, wording and a step by step walk through)
Step 4 – Setting rates on Airbnb
Step 5 – Welcoming guests (guest communication, hamper, bookings and enquiries, reviews, cleaning)
Step 6 – Troubleshooting (problem guests, cancellations, how to be prepared, boosting bookings).
Ongoing support for one month in total: all your questions answered via messages while you are setting up and preparing for guests (I might reply immediately or I might take up to 8 hours) or one call to achieve the same, if you prefer. Most mentees enjoy the convenience and immediacy of messaging.
Let’s Accelerate
£495 for one month; £350 subsequent
A coaching package for established hosts who are ready to take things to the next level or looking to fall back in love with what they do. A full review of what you do to make holiday letting work for you with ongoing feedback and coaching over a period of a month, optimising your offer and making sure you’re in control and loving what you do.
An initial call (45 mins) to establish our starting points and aims and so I can direct you towards appropriate resources;
Support with the areas you find challenging: pricing, social media, achieving bookings etc.
Access to my courses where appropriate;
All your questions answered via messages (I might reply immediately or I might take up to 8 hours) or one long or two short calls to achieve the same, if you prefer. Most mentees enjoy the convenience and immediacy of messaging.

Let’s Cohost
Love what you do and know it’s time to expand your empire as a manager/cohost? Want to chat through all the things to think about and have support with writing an agreement between you and the owner? Get it right from the start.
