Good morning everyone 🙋🏽‍♀️how is everyone these days? Would love to get to know more of you and network. Where are properties located? How long have you been doing SA? How many units do you have? Houses/apartments? Managed/Self managing?

Has anyone else randomly had ABB account suspension? Apparently I need to verify my identity??? 'Again'???? and need to 'update account details' or wont receive any of my payouts! but its not clickable! 😤🤬😠 We so need to get direct bookings and not be at mercy of OTAs! and as @Mark Simpson says, 'Stop building your house on someone else's land'!

I was told not to share this. But I am anyway. 😂 We have a handful of tickets left for the Icebreaker event — 21st April, London. The night before the Short Stay Summit. The bar has capped our capacity. So this is the last time I'm mentioning it. After this post? Radio silence. Here's what's waiting for you: — Hundreds of property managers in one room — The best vendors in the industry — Prizes — Bingo (but not as you know it) — A MAGICIAN — Free drinks And, two massive celebrity appearances I'm not allowed to talk about yet 🤐 This isn't just a networking drink. This is going to be one of those nights people talk about for years. And it kicks off what is genuinely one of the best one-day events in the short stay industry. If you're seeing this and your name isn't on the list yet — Comment LET ME IN below. I'll DM you the link. Don't wait. I mean it this time. P.s Did i mention free Drinks?!

Most people are still thinking about AI. The smart ones are already using it. 💡 You don’t need more time… you need systems AI can now handle: - Guest messages instantly (even at 2am) - FAQs like WiFi, check-in, parking - Sending guides + videos automatically Result?Better reviews. Faster replies. Less stress. 🚀 Start simple (don’t overcomplicate it) You don’t need some crazy setup. Start here: - Build a basic knowledge base (your FAQs) - Plug it into your channel manager - Let AI draft replies first (you approve) Then remove yourself once it’s working. ⚠️ Brutal truth most won’t admit If you’re still replying to every guest message manually… You haven’t built a business. You’ve built a job. And it will burn you out. 🎯 The goal isn’t AI… it’s freedom This is about: - Not replying to messages at dinner - Not waking up to angry guests - Not being “on call” 24/7 AI just happens to be the tool that gets you there. Curious… what’s ONE task you’d happily never do again in your SA business?
