Brother from another mother! Glamp Man, I'm the Glamping Guy. I look forward to meeting you someday!

[@theglampman3785]

Same here Glamping Guy. I have watched a few of your videos over the past couple months. I remember the 'official' presentation you gave on how you got started, I think that was at the Glamping Show?

[@glampingguy]

@@theglampman3785 Yep, that was me at the Glamping Show USA! :D

Hey love from India 🇮🇳… I was looking for a glamorous setup in my farm in south India and this video just came across.. and this is a gem
Thanks for the inputs and motivation

[@jaredkmcbride]

This video is a gem. Totally under rated. Thanks for sharing.

[@theglampman3785]

Thanks a million Jared. This was my first shot at a long form content and not sure if it would be taken well. Glad you got a lot from it.

[@gjm456]

A great video. It gave me all the reasons why I'm not cut out for this business. I have an excellent property to do it , but bottom line , I am an introvert who doesn't enjoy company, noise, and social media.
However , I find the business highly interesting and I enjoy all the videos. Fun to watch , and makes one honest with themselves if they are cut out for this.

[@theglampman3785]

Thank you so much @gjm456 for your thoughts and compliment. Of course running a glamping business is not for everyone and here on my channel I do my best to show the audience what it is really like. I am also glad you find it fun to watch, as I sure do have fun making these videos and hope many out there like you are finding it both entertaining and educational.

You're correct that it's much much harder to get a bad review if you've met the people in person. But there is a HUGE cost to that. Unless you're not a very busy person generally. I'm a very experienced STR host.

[@GoshenHideaway]

Great video, thanks. I’m surprised you didn’t mention starting an LLC… we are wondering if we should do that right away before we start. Getting ready to pull the trigger (still researching) renting out our camper and a bell tent site. Would love to do a Hobbit home someday but are not feeling well equipped and struggling to find info.

[@susangasporra1176]

Great advice!

[@theglampman3785]

Thanks Susan. Hope it helps in your journey.

[@ericfazekas1057]

Great video. I'm at the very beginning of the process and this is perfect! Thanks for your insight

[@theglampman3785]

I am happy to hear you got something out of my video. Good luck with your glamping journey.

[@BellyEndeavors]

thank you

[@theglampman3785]

And thanks for commenting positively.

[@gxex1]

Could you give a range of your average price per night for the 140 sq ft structure you built? And what is your occupancy rate?
Thanks for the help

[@nickrobinson8945]

Help me😅

[@theglampman3785]

What's your question Nick?
