Hi Geofry0,

I completely understand — hosting can feel like a full-time job, especially during peak seasons. The good news is that you can automate many parts of your Airbnb business to save time and reduce stress. Here are some key areas:

1>Guest Messaging:

>Use Airbnb’s Smart Messaging / Saved Messages to automatically respond to common inquiries and booking confirmations.

>Tools like Host Tools, Your Porter, or iGMS allow full automation for pre-check-in instructions, check-out reminders, and follow-ups.

2>alendar & Pricing:

>Enable Smart Pricing or use third-party tools to adjust your rates automatically based on demand, events, or seasonality.

>Sync all booking channels (Airbnb, VRBO, Booking.com) to avoid double bookings.

3>Check-in & Access:

>Use keyless entry systems or smart locks to allow guests to check in and out without needing your physical presence.

4>Cleaning & Turnover:

>Automate notifications for cleaners via apps like TurnoverBnB whenever a booking is confirmed.

5>Review & Feedback Requests:

>Use automated messages to ask guests for reviews or provide helpful information during their stay.

I can help you set up a fully automated Airbnb system, tailored to your listings, so you can enjoy more free time while maximizing bookings this festive season.

Best regards,
Jimoh Selome

Hello @Selome0 

Would you be doing this for free or would you expect payment like a co-host?

[Selome0]

No I work as freelancer , you can pay me per project or monthly management

[Helen3]

Airbnb asks those using its community not to use it to promote commercial services such as Airbnb management.  @Selome0 

In every post you make you are asking people to contact you if they want help with their listing .

this is not allowed . @Selome0 

you can only post offering your services if a host specifically asks for the type of services you offer.

Okay thanks for letting me know i will stop doing thatt

Hi @Geofry0 

I suggest hiring a dedicated cleaner and possibly a virtual assistant if your main job keeps you busy. A good cleaner ensures your place is always guest-ready, and a VA can handle guest communication, schedule coordination, maintenance follow-ups, and anything that needs quick attention.

You can also use Airbnb’s automated messages to cover the basics check-in instructions, checkout reminders, house rules, and common FAQs. Automation helps cut down your workload, ensures guests receive timely information, and keeps your response rate high. Then your VA (or you) can simply focus on the more personalized or urgent messages that automation can’t handle.
