  • I have tried to be the best airbnb host and business owner I could be over the years. I have tried to teach you all everything I know, in doing so I've pushed the envelope in the airbnb space to be thought leader. I think over the years many of us have fallen off track. I hope this video helps brings us back to center.

    It's hard to know who to trust online. Everyone is selling something. Even I one day hope to mentor some of you. There are fake gurus out there that claim to know how to teach airbnb, business, and real estate. Phonies like Chi Ta trying to sell his course BNB university or Brian Page trying to sell BNB formula. Inexperienced hosts like Stayly with only a few properties and a year of airbnb experience, they claim to make millions on airbnb bust don't reveal those million are all course sales that come from ad campaign and a free webinar that they misrepresent as a paid webinar that is free just for you. Coaches with No airbnb arbitrage or business leaderhip experience like Robuilt. There are no-name hosts with barely any properties trying to claim they're successful, such as vacation rental machine or bnb riches, or the 10xbnb system. None of these "gurus" have a decade and a half of sales experience or business leadership under their belt in addition to having over 100 properties. Only Sean Rakidzich, who has created almost all of the other airbnb coaches you see today on the internet. DM @AirbnbAutomated on instagram that you're shopping for an airbnb coach and i will send you your choice of THREE free Ebooks ive made on this industry custom for wherever you are on your journey.

    I'm an author who has completely reinvented myself three times. I get what you're talking about. The hospitality is my favorite part of this. So far Airbnb people are soooo much more responsible and easier to deal with than regular renters.

    Thank you Sean for sharing the importance of focusing on the humanity part of our business. The soft guy era, has unveiled this absolute truth-our guest’s experience matters and we as hosts play an important role in ensuring that our they are treated with respect & given the benefit of doubt that they’ll be great guests.
    Thank you for providing incredible content these past 8 years & for sharing your soft guy era truths with us. Drizzle Drizzle.

    Thank you, Sean. I didn't seek this video out. I was rewatching another one of your videos trying to remember how to solve a problem... and here you solve a different problem for me I that was trying to ignore. I have some super *****y guests right now breaking house rules in my newest house (pets, smoking on the porch. I've been ready to burn down the place just to spite them, so thanks for some cooler-headed, helpful advice on how to deal with them in resolution.

    Love your content, much appreciated! I approach Airbnb and guests with gratitude - for allowing me the opportunity to provide the experiences i do and make great money doing it. 99.9% of my guests are awesome and Airbnb has been good to me. I own my properties, so I have a lot of skin the game.
    I realize this opportunity can be yanked from us at any moment.

    Its been over 2 months and have not got my claim from air cover resolved. All they say is were looking into it when its a black and white case. They dont allow me to talk to a supervisor. You cant continue to conduct business this way and there’s nothing we can do. I can deal with guest but not with Airbnb neglecting hosts. For this reason me and other hosts are out.
