Short-term rentals allowed Zach Busekrus to turn the terrible COVID situation into an amazing journey. Taking the opportunity to work remotely by the reins, Zach has traveled the country since staying in Airbnbs all throughout the country with his wife. He is the brand strategist and founder of Enrollify, a learning hub that would help equip admissions and marketing professionals with ideas on how to better optimize the resources they do have to generate the results that they need. Throughout the past years, Zach has stayed in dozens of Airbnbs across the United States and has an amazing perspective on what makes his favorite rentals memorable and where others can improve.
Switching up the podcast and speaking with an Airbnb guest rather than a host, Avery speaks with Zach about his journey into becoming a digital nomad and how short-term rentals have allowed him to see the world around him in a whole new way. Zach also utilities his great deal of experience staying in Airbnbs to share his thoughts on certain considerations that short term rental owners should take into account, for example, specifics in managing customer relations, the purchasing of furniture, towels, sheets, and commodities as well as his experience with common STR items like Nest cameras and digital thermostats. They discuss the importance of marketing your rental to the type of renter that you would like to attract, as well as the small things that one can do to elevate their rental and bring in more 5-star reviews.
