Description
I was failing financially. I was in a dead-end customer service job and owned a failing laundromat. I needed a quick way to get out of debt and become financially free. I took a stab at renting my apartment out on weekends when I was out of town using Airbnb - and it paid off.
When I first started renting via Airbnb, I really had no idea what I was doing. I was just trying to make a quick buck. I made an account and listed my apartment with nothing but a few photos. That first year, I managed to make about $9,000 but felt it could make more if I did something right.
I quickly changed my strategy. I needed to approach this whole Airbnb thing like a true business. I took a look from the inside out and tried to make it the best business that I could. I adapted new strategies, brushed up my listing, and the rest is history The next year, my bookings and sales nearly doubled. Now, as it's not even my full-time job and I only rent at specific times, my Airbnb side income brings me in over $50,000 per year.
With the right approach, you can turn your space into a hosting platform that easily accommodates people from all walks of life and cultural backgrounds. Guests can step into your home and stay for as long as they want without feeling homesick.
