If it is not what you thought it was, email me within fourteen days and I will refund you, as long as you have not downloaded any files.

What's Included? 

14 lessons on the guest experience and operations systems I use to run four homes in four states, with my Guest Messaging Templates and Operations Toolkit, including an operations manual template. Hospitality is caring in advance. Most of the warmth guests feel comes from systems you build once.

Five-Star Guest Experience

How to ask for five-star reviews, the nine pillars behind them, and how to learn from what guests tell you.

Step-by-Step Lessons

14 lessons take you through messaging and smooth turnovers, maintenance and prevention, supplies and inventory, and what Sandy does daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly and yearly.

Real Systems, Real Results

Learn how Sandy runs her own high-performing properties, from guest communication to turnovers. These exact systems earned her Superhost and Guest Favorite status on Airbnb.

Three more followed within two years, and she retired at 55.

5 Stars! From finding properties, crunching the numbers and purchasing to actually owning, operating and - most of all - profiting from STRs is all here inside her courses and consultations. She makes everything so easy to understand but also easy to implement from start to finish.

Finally Long-Term Projections! I especially appreciate being able to see long-term projections, which is providing me a much better understanding of the potential performance of an investment. STR JumpStart has such valuable tools for evaluating different scenarios and understanding the financial implications.

Blown Away! STR JumpStart is amazing! As the old Chinese proverb says "to know the road ahead, ask those coming back" - and as both a Realtor and STR owner, I was blown away by Sandy's knowledge regarding "the road ahead" when it comes to all things STR.

Huge Value! The value I got from this was far beyond any other course, masterclass, or coach I've invested in and I would give it more than 5 stars if I could!

5-Star Reviews

What worked in 2019 doesn’t work today…it’s more difficult to make a profit and one of the things that sets you apart is 5 star reviews. Let Sandy show you how she achieves consistent 5 star reviews across all her properties, with all guest favorites on Airbnb.
