THIS IS THE YEAR TO STOP WAITING ON BOOKINGS TO "JUST HAPPEN" AND START MAKING THEM HAPPEN WITH INSTAGRAM!
Without struggling to create consistent content, stand out in a sea of others or figure out a doable plan that actually works.
Revolutionize your vacation rental business and skyrocket your bookings in 2024 with INSTAGRAM! Even if you don't have a website!
HEY THERE, VACATION RENTAL / STR HOSTS....did you know Airbnb, VRBO and the other OTAs are using your business, your property and your hospitality to build their brand???
Gone are the days of waiting around for Airbnb or other platforms to do the heavy lifting for you. With the market more saturated than ever, it's up to you to carve out your own space and stand out from the crowd.
You are not at the mercy of the Airbnb algorithm, expensive Google or Facebook ads, or a book direct website that gets ZERO traffic.
This is the year to seize the reins and proactively market your property like never before.
And guess what?
Instagram is the ultimate platform for savvy hosts like you... to connect with travelers, showcase your badass vacation rentals & guest experience, build a loyal fan base and turn your feed into a booking machine. 📲🚀🚀📲
But no matter how many changes you make to your listing on someone else's platform...
Then you are still 100% dependent on an algorithm to decide if your listing reaches the top of the search results.
And the people behind the algorithm are ACTIVELY COURTING new properties and new hosts from right down the street. (more of your competitors)
Plenty of hosts are discovering the secret sauce to successfully marketing their vacation rentals using digital and traditional marketing, while STILL managing their properties, dealing with grumpy guests, and doing ALL. THE. THINGS (does it ever end?)

I was introduced to Jodi's coaching when I was looking for help marketing my property management company. I went through many webinars, joined many Facebook groups, and couldn't find someone who spoke to me. Until Jodi! I loved her authentic self, her hands-on style of coaching, and her true passion for helping others versus just selling her business. What I love most about Jodi is her style of communication. I learned how to research and write blogs well, how to create social content that works, and most importantly how to (including why it's so important) create guest avatars that are the base of our marketing plan. I would never have been able to do this without Jodi guiding the step-by-step processes. Do yourself a favor and challenge yourself to sign up. It's an investment that will pay for itself!!

You can't start marketing with Instagram until you know your Perfect Guest Avatar, create an offer and understand what destination and guest experience marketing is all about.
Get started the right way - even if you've already started. Create a better bio that grows your following, learn all the app features, and ensure you have a profile page that converts!
Instagram starts with content creation and curation. Discover your content pillars and theme, write engaging captions and calls to action, build a content bank and create scroll stopping images and videos.
Nobody wants to follow a used car salesman and despite what some will tell you, Instagram works best when you build a trusted following, provide value and create connections.
Before the challenge begins, you'll get access to my Perfect Guest Avatar workshop! This super comprehensive training includes a walkthrough of my Perfect Guest Avatar Workbook with examples of various avatars and how to use your avatars in social media and email marketing. This training is provided in a video lesson and a private podcast feed so you can listen on the go!
"I love Jodi’s down-to-earth approach to what often feels overwhelming and out of reach. Not only did I trust Jodi to rebuild my website, but I also took her Digital Marketing course. One word, Awesome! So much information in a very friendly, MANAGEABLE format. I really enjoyed being in an actual (online) class with other like-minded people. Now I have all that powerful information I can pull out and refer to whenever I need motivating or redirecting. It's been two years since the program and she still checks in and cheers me on when she sees something I've done! Jodi and her style were a perfect match for me!"

Girl, I've been doing this for a long time - my first email campaign was in 2005 for the nonprofit I was working with at the time - and I've been IN LOVE with email marketing since. And guess what - it is still the #1 way to create meaningful touchpoints with your previous guests...and future guests!
But, the tech nightmare (who wants to kick the living 💩 out of that Mailchimp Monkey??) combined with the crazy terminology (lead magnet? CTR? ) and then --- you have to WRITE? Every month?
Yeah, I get it. Ain't NOBODY got time for that!
And that's why I'm here. I love to write and create content... and most of all, I've been in the vacation rental industry since 2014, and I know what your peeps want to know and read and how to convert them into BOOKINGS.
If you need help demystifying the email marketing system, understanding how it works and building the steps to success - sign up today!
"I learned so much - the Guest Avatar training was unbelievably helpful and it's already working. Whenever I try one of the suggestions - from the Instagram course or the SEO lessons, I see results. I can't thank you enough!"

"Jodi's guidance with my email marketing strategy has worked wonders for my business. From her support and templates, messaging, tech videos so I could watch step by step while she set up a newsletter, and all the extras I learned about marketing in general. She understands email marketing and teaches it with patience. Working with her is a no-brainer.”

"I feel that I learned something from every module, and am more confident on the platform now. I liked the pace and the amount of information you have included, and the way you illustrate everything step by step. The section on Canva was really useful, and I also love the planning tools you included. All in all I think your course is full of amazing content, is very well structure and is a great value!"

"I follow everything Jodi says and watch every video she posts. Her Instagram course is fantastic- I've been using Instagram for a while and I always learn something new from her. And the social media calendar is priceless! She is a true expert.
