Smokies, TN, direct booking growth

First prospect meeting with owner in another market, went very well and they want to move forward. We operate in the Smokies in TN, this property would be in Surf City, NC at the beach. Anyone in that market and/or in a NC beach market to network with?

@Joe Rivera how did you get traction with the AirBnB Co-Host Program? I have tried multiple times with them to sign up, but always get the feedback they aren't taking more right now and they will come back to me in the future if there is opportunity?

A bit of a strange win for the week, but my win is that I have decided to not proceed with a potential client that was coming to me with 2 properties. I visited those properties this weekend and provided the owner with all updates that would have to be made for us to take over the properties to manage, however the owner was not willing to invest further into an outdated set of properties. My win is staying true to my brand and not on-boarding more properties just to grow (though it was hard to walk away from that potential deal).

I have tried that with no success thus far. Generally I've tried to reach out via FB messenger and I think a lot of that are chats they never even see, as you need to approve the chat if you are not 'friends' already. Of the ones that I've connected with unfortunately no results but some good conversations at least for growth and learning.

Fully agree, I cannot count how many NO's or no responses I get
