The human layer to all the excellence on the internet — for short-term-rental hosts who don't want a 25%-of-revenue property manager. Direct line: 858-461-8054.
Every line is a concrete artifact delivered to your accounts. No "advisory" without shipped configuration.
PriceLabs / Beyond / Wheelhouse configured for your property. Min/max rates set, seasonality rules tuned, base-price benchmarked against comparable listings in your zip. Tested over 14 days before handoff.
Written analysis of your last 12 months: occupancy %, ADR, RevPAR, length-of-stay distribution, lead-time patterns. Named bottlenecks with $-impact estimates. Recommended fixes prioritized.
A page on your domain (or sideguy-hosted subdomain) that ranks for "[property name] [city]" + adjacent queries. Schema-marked. Photos, amenities, neighborhood guide, direct-booking CTA.
Stripe-powered direct-booking surface. Returning guests + word-of-mouth referrals book directly with you instead of paying Airbnb's 14% guest fee + your 3% host fee. You keep the 17% delta.
Auto-responder for pre-stay questions: check-in time, parking, WiFi, late checkout, amenities, neighborhood. Answers in under 60 seconds. Hands off to you (text) for anything outside the FAQ scope.
Twilio-routed text line for prospect inquiries. Smart filtering (qualifying questions answered automatically; serious leads routed to you with context). Reduces "tire-kicker" noise by ~70%.
Process + templates for handling negative reviews: response framework (acknowledge → context → resolution), removal-request playbook for policy violations, follow-up sequence for guests who left without reviewing.
One free follow-up session 30 days after rollout. Tune what isn't sticking, adjust pricing if data drifted, fix integration issues, refresh review-recovery templates.

Comparison to typical alternatives: Full-service Airbnb property management = 20-30% of revenue forever (~$8K-15K/yr on a $40K-50K/yr property, $16K-30K/yr on an $80K-100K/yr property). Co-host arrangements = 10-15% of revenue ongoing. SideGuy is a one-time $4,500 install — and you keep the systems. Pays back inside 4-8 months for most active hosts.
Day-by-day reality of a typical single-property install ($4,500, 2 weeks).
The 7 questions every host asks. Answered upfront so we can spend the kickoff call on your specific property.
Seven concrete components: smart-pricing setup (PriceLabs/Beyond/Wheelhouse), occupancy audit, SEO landing page, direct booking page, AI guest FAQ, text intake flow, review recovery. Plus a 30-day post-launch check.
$4,500 fixed-scope for one property. +$3,500 for property #2, +$2,500 for properties #3-9. 10+ portfolio is custom. Half due at kickoff, half on delivery.
PM = 20-30% of revenue forever (you're a passive owner). SideGuy install = one-time $4,500 + you keep the systems and stay the operator. PM = handoff. Install = ownership.
Yes — integrations route through your PMS where applicable. Smart pricing pushes to your PMS calendar; AI FAQ runs on your messaging integration; text intake routes via your number.
Skip if: brand-new host (under 90 days), only 1-2 weeks/year rentals, considering selling in 6 months, already have full-service PM (overlap), or your real problem is property quality (bad photos, dated furniture, location issue).
Operator-honest read: if your property has structural issues (photos, furniture, location, cleaning), no pack fixes it. We'll tell you upfront if we think it's property-quality vs operations. If property is the issue, hire a stager + STR-experienced cleaner first.
Yes — the pack works for VRBO-only, Airbnb-only, or multi-platform hosts. Direct-booking page reduces dependency on either platform's commission. Smart-pricing tools (PriceLabs / Beyond / Wheelhouse) all support both platforms.
Text PJ a paragraph about your property (city, bedrooms, last 12-mo revenue, the pain point that made you read this page). We'll reply within a few hours with a yes/no on fit and confirm the kickoff. No discovery-call gauntlet.
